The Smashing Pumpkins Meet & Greet — What's Included
When offered, The Smashing Pumpkins meet and greet packages typically include some combination of:

How to Get The Smashing Pumpkins Meet & Greet Tickets
- Check the Ticketmaster event page. VIP packages are listed alongside standard tickets on the date-specific event page above.
- Buy during the presale. VIP inventory almost always moves during presales — by the time general on-sale opens, M&G is often sold out.
- Watch for official VIP upgrade offers. Occasionally the tour's VIP vendor sends upgrade offers closer to showtime.
- Avoid third-party M&G resellers. Meet and greet passes are often non-transferrable — a resold pass may not be honored at the venue.
