SOLD OUT: Red Hot Chili Peppers Tickets Snapped Up

There's plenty of disappointed Red Hot Chili Peppers fans after their Hunter Valley gig next February sold out within minutes.

We're already seeing some tickets being re-sold with a massive mark up, including General Admission tickets going for $1000.

Ticketmaster has come under fire for double dipping with handling fees for both the original sale and then the re-sale.

Meantime a cheeky Facebook group called Jump the Fence to the Red Hot Chili Pepper has been set up.

So far over 6,000 people have said they're attending and a further 21,000 are interested.

The Hope Estate concert will be the Chili Peppers first in the Hunter or Newcastle.
