On January 14th, Girls’ Generation broke the record for the fastest concert to sell out in Thailand.
Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand will be hosting the Fanta Playtime Presents Girls’ Generation Tour on February 12, 2012. The highest priced tickets, which were 4500 baht and 5000 baht each, sold out in ten minutes. Other unconfirmed sources suggest that it was even less. (Editor’s note: Baht is currency in Thailand. One U.S. dollar equals thirty baht.) All 11,000 concert tickets were sold in twenty minutes, setting the record for the concert to be sold out the fastest in Thailand.
Girls’ Generation recently won the Digital Daesang at the 26th Golden Disk Award on January 12th, making them the only artist to have received three Daesang awards. Their most recent album, “The Boys”, was also the best selling album of 2011.
The girls will also be in Hong Kong on January 15th for their next stop on their “Second Asia Concert Tour”. After performing in Singapore on December 9th and 10th of last year, Girls’ Generation is looking to continue their concert success in Hong Kong and Bangkok.

They are not the first artist to get 3 daesangs, they are the first idol group to do so.

I got a tickets!! Sooo hard but now I’m very happy with it. ^O^
so lucky!! If I’m in your position, I think I wouldn’t be able to sleep until the concert day. LOL ^^
damn you are lucky! :) i can spend any amount just to be in their concert !
now I’m getting more and more worried each day. What if they have a concert in the Philippines and the same thing would happen? Filipino sones are eager to see them. We’ve been waiting for so long. If ever they plan to hold a concert here, I wish I get a ticket for myself before it gets sold out.
Wow…….5000baht….thats a lot of money…..i mean, if u think of it in dollars, its only $166 but still.
i used to live in cambodia and go to thailand once in a while and 5000baht could get u a lot of stuff….u could buy some nice things with that~
WOW!
I’m very impressed!
just what type of ticketing system did Thailand use?
They used internet or phone call to the centre and apparently it almost made the website collapse.
And there was also mobile booking.
well…at least its better than Singapore’s system :D
the ticketing system just crashed in only a minute :x
@taengsoshi, any idea when they’ll come to malaysia? :)
As of right now, Malaysia is not on their set schedule for their 2nd Asia Concert Tour. But do stay tuned to SSF for updates!
