Lewis Capaldi is finding it difficult to fill seats ahead of his show in Berlin 😖
The Scottish superstar, 26, has revealed sales for his German concert at the 17,000-capacity Mercedes-Benz Arena are ‘abysmal’ compared to the rest of Europe.
‘Big arena tour in the UK, and they’re going to hear us in Europe for the first time, which is selling well except for Germany’. He was heard telling Ken Bruce on BBC Radio 2: ‘People in Germany are really not vibing with my music, I have to say at the minute. Ticket sales are abysmal.‘Everywhere else you’re like, “Oh, that’s going to sell out, or that’s going to sell really well, blah blah blah”, and you can kind of see them going up.‘The show in Berlin is 17,000 people, that’s what the arena can hold. And I have sold 1,373 tickets.
The Forget Me hitmaker revealed he had a ‘gripe to grind’ with the Home singer as his new single is being thrashed by festive songs in the charts., whose 2012 cover of It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas is among those keeping his track – co-written with Ed Sheeran – from the top spot. Lewis told the audience during filming for In Concert with Lewis Capaldi for BBC Radio 2: ‘No one told me that it was probably a bad idea to release a song at Christmas, a song that has no reference to Christmas.
