Muse pre-sale will be from 09:00 on the 19th of August, while general sale will start on the 21st[1] at 09:00[3][4]. Tickets will be limited to four per person, for both nights.[3]

First rumoured in mid-July,[6] the South Devon newspaper Herald Express lent credence to the possibility of two early-September Teignmouth gigs on the 4th of August.[2] Permission was still being sought at that time,[2] though anecdotes from locals suggested that the concerts were thought likely to go ahead.[7][8] Support was gauged by the council through sending letters regarding the concerts to locals, culminating with a meeting inside Teignmouth council offices at 10:00am on the 17th.[9][10][11][12] Christopher Wolstenholme appealed for followers of musewire to turn up to the offices in support of the gigs[9][10][11] and the council allowed the concerts to go ahead.[13]

The concerts were announced on the Muse website the following day, collectively dubbed "A Seaside Rendezvous". Ticket price is the same as that of the rest of The Resistance tour, namely £37.50 without booking fee, through the Muse website, Ticketmaster, Gigs and Tours[1]/Seetickets[3][4] and an unspecified Teignmouth booking office. A limited number of tickets will be sold with coach transport through Gigs and Tours, from the following cities: Birmingham, Bristol, London, Manchester, Nottingham, Oxford and Southampton.[1]

It has been speculated that these twin gigs are what DJ Zane Lowe meant by his "surprise" in store for Muse fans.[14]
