GET EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO SOUNDCHECK WITH YOUR FRIENDS OF AMY MEMBERSHIP!Access Available For MOST Concerts (Days where Amy is performing with a symphony or has 2 shows on the same day will not have soundcheck). Sign-up for Friends of Amy, then “REGISTER” for your tickets.

About Ticket Pre-Sales:

  • We make every effort to post ticket pre-sales when we are able. There are times that promoters may launch ticket sales without informing Amy’s fan club due to various contractual reasons.
  • Once a show goes on-sale there is nothing we can do to take seats away from a person who have already purchased them.
  • Anytime that you see tickets on-sale to the general public and you want tickets – GET YOUR TICKETS immediately – do NOT delay waiting for the fan club to announce it (please make sure though that you are dealing with a reputable ticket vendor licensed by the venue or promoter). Then please email us the info of the show that you were able to purchase tickets for so we can rush a message to all members.
  • Our NUMBER 1 priority is making you aware of ticket on-sales the moment that we are aware!
  • For information on Soundchecks please go here and sign-up NOW. If your show is not shown then your concert’s Soundcheck may already be closed or Amy’s schedule is not allowing time for her to have an FOA Soundcheck.

The Compassion Christmas Catalog & Red Cross Catalogs are great ways for you to purchase specific items and make sure that they are given and/or used by a family in need. Amy  has been supporting both of these organizations for many years and these “gift catalogs” are some simple ways that you can join in.
