US actor Kevin Hart is set to make a surprise appearance at Belfast’s Limelight this weekend – but many have complained about the speed at which tickets were sold.
The stand-up comedian makes his reality check tour of Belfast on Saturday, March 19th, with doors opening at 7.30pm.
Tickets went on sale Friday at 2 p.m., but sold out within 20 minutes.
He should get support from local comedians Shane Todd and Colin Geddis.
Founded as one of the highest-paid stand-up comedians in Forbes history, Kevin Hart’s latest global comedy tour sold out over 100 arenas around the world and sold over one million tickets worldwide in 2018 during his “Irresponsible Tour”.
Hart has also anchored an amazing 10 films that have reached # 1 in the US Box Office in the last 10 years.
Many people complained about the website and asked if the tickets were sold out.
Commenting on a post about the tickets, a Twitter user said: “I was there, logged in, clicked on book now at 2pm and it told me to go back to the lists.
“How did everyone buy enough tickets to sell out ??”
One woman said: “Was not seen at 2pm error after error as someone went down the ticket website 2-3 hours before the tickets even went up.”
While another disappointed fan added: “There’s no real way this could have sold out so quickly, were tickets available at all? Oh well!”
Limelight has been asked for a response to online complaints.
Hart is in town to film Heist Comedy Lift with most of the production work scheduled to begin March 23 at Belfast Harbor Studios.
The Netflix feature is led by Straight Outta Compton’s F Gary Gray, working on a screenplay by Dan Kunka.
Hart plays a master thief who is asked by his ex-girlfriend and the FBI to fly an impossible heist with his international crew on a 777 flying from London to Zurich.
The feature is part of a partnership agreement Hart signed with streaming giant less than a year ago to give his production company four films exclusively for Netflix.
