Slayer held their final performance in November. However, there is a ticket reseller, Viagogo, allegedly selling tickets to see these thrash legends at the Sweden Rock Festival in June of this year. Slayer heard the news and instantly warned fans that they’re not performing there.
The group commented:
“WARNING TO SLAYER FANS!
There are tickets being offered on Viagogo for a Slayer performance at Sweden Rocks June 2020. Buyer beware this is a resale site with inaccurate information SLAYER WILL NOT PERFORMING.”
Based on a brief Twitter search for Viagogo, it appears this secondary ticket site has a history of reselling tickets to shows that do not exist:
Do not buy tickets from ticketbande!
There is no official ticketsale yet!There have been some fake tickets on this site in the past! The same applies to viagogo!
Stick to the official ticket sites we will post as soon as we know more. pic.twitter.com/4fNgu1zkfu

Always remember @viagogo is run by cunts, for cunts. Don’t be a cunt. @viagogo are money grabbing con-artists. No real artist supports or condones their existence. Fuck every single cunt that works for them. https://t.co/zkdxvvxaLU

I have a question, so places like vividseats and Viagogo are selling tickets. Are they real tickets because I know on Ticketmaster, there is the presale thing. I’m confused.#BTSxATLANTA2020
