Can’t Believe You Missed The Killers? You Still Might Have a Shot
Alright, so if you’re a fan of The Killers and you were hoping to catch their upcoming summer concert at CMAC in Canandaigua, here’s the deal — tickets have officially sold out. Yeah, completely gone. It’s a one-night-only performance on Saturday, August 2nd, and let’s be real, that was always going to sell fast. But if you missed the initial rush, don’t panic just yet — there are still some options that might surprise you.
Resale platforms like Vivid Seats, SeatGeek, and StubHub are stepping in to save the day. And the prices, while not dirt cheap, are actually a lot more reasonable than you’d expect for a sold-out show from one of the biggest rock bands of the 21st century.
We’re talking lawn seats starting around $53 to $58 depending on where you look, rear seating going for about $120 to $130, and if you’re willing to splurge, you can get front section seats for just under $300. The General Admission Pit, of course, is the most premium, hitting somewhere between $350 and $395. Prices can fluctuate, though, and fees can sneak in, so keep that in mind.
A little tip? First-time buyers on Vivid Seats can actually snag a $20 discount on orders over $200 using the code SYRACUSE20. So yeah, that helps if you're going big.

Now let’s talk about why this concert matters. The Killers aren’t just any band. With hits like “Mr. Brightside,” “When You Were Young,” and “Somebody Told Me,” they basically helped define the sound of 2000s rock. And they’ve kept that momentum going strong — their seventh studio album dropped in 2021, and in 2023 they followed it up with a greatest hits collection called Rebel Diamonds .
This upcoming CMAC show marks their return to Central New York after playing Turning Stone back in 2022, so it’s definitely a rare opportunity. Their live shows are known for being high-energy and emotional — Brandon Flowers never phones it in.
And for anyone scanning the rest of CMAC’s summer lineup, it’s looking stacked. We’ve got Train, Sublime, Bonnie Raitt, the Black Keys... but honestly, The Killers are arguably the crown jewel in that schedule.
So if you thought you missed out completely, think again. It might take a little digging and maybe a few extra bucks, but seeing The Killers live this summer? It’s still totally within reach — and probably worth every penny.
