    Due to public demand following the sold-out successes of last year, The SSE Hydro will now be the first live show of May's SmackDown European Tour.

    WWE have announced that its unique brand of action packed entertainment is returning to Glasgow on Thursday 4th May 2017.

    Tickets go on sale tomorrow (10th February).

    Brilliant to hear thought I would have to wait to next year to take my 5 year old to it, didn't fancy the trek back up from Newcastle for him to late at night, it's his Bday the end of March ,

    How easy would it be for tickets and what sort of prices? Never been to a gig in my 34 years lol (went to wwe in braehead year's ago but was a spare ticket fae my cousin who was taking his boy)

    Should be fairly easy to get tickets mate, here's the price range according to Ticketmaster...

    Level 0 Seating
    £73.80 - £85.15

    Level 2 Seating
    £39.75 - £73.80

    Level 3 Seating
    £39.75 - £51.10

    I'll be sticking to the level 3 price range!

    Seems pricey compared to a ticket for a show in the states. But thats most things when they convert/sell to us. Not too bad though, considering what you will be seeing.
    Defo going to go next year though.

    If you don't mind paying a bit more then i'd recommend you try and get closer than level 3, especially for the weans benefit.

    Don't get floor seats if he's small as he'll not be able to see much of the entrances best going for lower tier

    I went to raw in november, I paid for 3 tickets but the only tickets available was the level 3 seating but I wanted to go as it was the first raw at the Hydro.
    When I turned up our seats had been upgraded and we were seated on the level 0 seating couldn't believe it !
    My mate who bought his seat separately never had his upgraded he was raging hahaha although he was in level 3 he had a good view of the ring!

    Aye, floor seats ! The guy that sat next to me asked me if my seats were upgraded I said yes, he told me they released more tickets for Raw and basically it was our tickets that were released and they moved us down to the floor because there was floor space available. He said he was raging cause his mates had came earlier and they got upgraded to the ramp seats! It was like first come first serve on the upgraded tickets so he said!
    The tickets we had was the very back row of the Hydro too Lol!

    Was up there for Raw last year and a house show two years ago, wasn't to bad. Was in level 2 for Smackdown and there wasn't much difference except the price in tickets.
