The Tyrannian Concert Hall, a Stonehenge-like construction, is located on the Plateau in Tyrannia, where it hosts the performances of Neopia's bands. It opened its doors on (need date). The Concert Hall has been estimated to have a capacity of over ten thousand spectators. To enter the Concert Hall, one requires a ticket in order to pass the doorman Grafney from Mynci and Sons Event Security, Inc..
Ticket Booth
The Ticket Booth, located next to the Concert Hall, is responsible for selling the tickets to the daily band, which is booked by the Booth's owner, Skalpo. Tickets always cost 1250 neopoints. While the tickets, being actual items, can be traded by users, the Ticket Booth monopolises these tickets entering the market, with the exception of the Jazzmosis Xmas Special Ticket, which was give out by the Advent Calendar in 2002.
This monopolisation results in sometimes extortionate prices, but tickets to the bands still become sold out quite early in the day. In addition to entitling the holder to see the band's performance that day, tickets are usable whenever the band is showing at the Hall. Users also get a random free souvenir of the band when they see them perform. Seeing certain bands perform also unlocks certain avatars.
