Presale information for U2's shows in Australia and New Zealand

As we reported earlier, there will be a presale for U2.com fanclub members before tickets for the forthcoming Oceania leg go on public sale on 3 September 2010. U2.com has now posted information - but it's not yet where you would expect it, in an article or on the tour page. At the time of writing, it is in a forum post.

Update: the presale information is now on the tour page. It presumably didn't appear at time of writing due a redesign underway on U2.com.

The presale takes place this week, in less than two days. It will occur in two distinct phases. All times in the following information are local to the venue.

For all existing fanclub members, the the presale begins on Thursday, 26 August at 11am and runs until noon on Monday, 30 August. Yes, that is for all four old subscriber groups: Horizon, Breathe, Magnificent, Boots.

For new fanclub members, there will be a separate presale after the presale for existing members. New members will be allocated to a fifth subscriber group, named Cedar. The Cedar presale begins on Monday, 30 August at 1pm and runs until midday on Wednesday, 1 September.

U2.com have updated their presales FAQ to be relevant for the upcoming presales. It confirms that you can use your presale code to buy 1-4 tickets for ONE concert only, the same as the European presales earlier on the tour.
