Up to 5,000 extra tickets are about to be made available for Madonna’s Sticky & Sweet Tour gig in Helsinki, according to reports from local newspaper Helsingin Sanomat.

“Just when you thought they were all gone (or alternatively just as you were about to sell yours for a profit), it appears that yet more tickets will be added for pop diva Madonn’s August gig in Helsinki”, the newspaper says.

“We are currently looking into the matter with the authorities, but I would imagine that around five thousand extra tickets will become available”, estimates promoter Risto Juvonen from Live Nation.

“The concert area could hold a much larger crowd, but the entry and exit routes set the limits.”

Madonna will perform in Helsinki’s Jätkäsaari on August 6th. So far over 80,000 tickets have been made available for the concert, which sold out very quickly amid reports of chaos and snafus at street and online outlets. Live Nation Finland is also the promoter of another Sticky & Sweet Tour event in the Baltic country of Estonia, where Madonna will perform on August 4.
