For a month, in-the-know fans have been aware of where ‘NSync’s upcoming fall tour would stop and when. Now the scramble for tickets to see the wildly popular boy group is about to get underway.

‘NSync has announced plans to play shows in 21 cities, and all tickets for all shows are scheduled to go on sale between Friday and Sunday (9/15-9/17), according to various promoters and venue officials. Ticket prices will vary from market to market, but they will generally sell for between $40 and $50 (before taxes, ticketing charges and other fees). Ticket-sellers have generally instituted an eight-ticket limit per person for 'NSync shows.

Given the band’s recent track record, it is safe to assume that those who want 'NSync tickets will have to act quickly, and that not everyone who wants a ticket will get one. Long lines are probable at many box offices and ticketing outlets, many of which have instituted wristband policies to quell overnight camping. (Wristband policies vary widely, so it is best to contact local box offices and ticket-sellers for details.)

Those who try to purchase tickets by telephone should expect to endure some busy signals, and Internet ticket sales will probably be slowed by the huge numbers of fans who are likely to inundate the network when the large blocks of tickets hit the market.

The first on-sales--for a show at the National Car Rental Center near Fort Lauderdale, Fla.--will take place at 5 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday (9/15). If ticket sales are strong, a second show probably will be added at the venue, but the on-sale date for those tickets could not be confirmed at press time. Tickets will not be available at National Car Rental Center box office until Monday (9/18)--if any remain to be sold after the weekend.

Tickets for 'NSync’s Los Angeles shows are scheduled to go on sale on Sunday (9/17). All other shows go on sale Saturday (9/16).

Tickets to most shows will be sold through Ticketmaster, Ticketmaster Online and venue box offices. Exceptions are in Knoxville, Tenn., where tickets to a show at Thompson-Boling Arena will be sold through Tickets Unlimited Knoxville; and in University Park, Pa., where tickets to a show at Bryce Jordan Center will be sold through Tickets.com and regional box offices. Canadian on-sales will be handled by local box offices and Ticketmaster Canada.
