How is stubhub.com as platform for getting Coldplay concert tickets?

honestly i'd skip stubhub for this one, the transfer system here is a mess for big shows. thaiticketmajor ties tickets to the original buyer's name and they check ID at the gate at rajamangala, so even if you get a pdf it might not scan. try the "coldplay thailand 2024 ticket" facebook group instead, people post there with screenshots of their purchase confirmation and you can meet them before the show to walk in together. prices are usually face value or close to it, just sort by newest posts and dm fast

thaiticketmajor is the only official seller here so anything else is resale. stubhub will work but you're paying triple or more. for coldplay specifically, check the "coldplay thailand" facebook group, people sell at face value when plans change. the concert is at rajamangala stadium which is a bit out of the way, take the airport rail link to hua mak station then a short taxi ride

stubhub is legit for resale but the risk is real here. thai tickets are mostly digital and tied to the original buyer's ID, so transferring them can be tricky. viagogo might have more listings but same issue. your best bet is checking the official coldplay fan resale on thaiticketmajor if it's still open, or try the coldplay thailand facebook group where locals sell at face value. i've seen people get scammed on stubhub for big events like this in bangkok, especially last minute

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
