If you were hoping to get tickets to Drake’s two-day OVO fest this year, be prepared to shell out a lot of cash.
Tickets for the ninth OVO fest officially went on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday morning.
To attend the August 5 show at Budweiser stage — which has only Drake on the bill — will set you back $800 to $1,000 for general admission. To actually get a seat, it will cost you around $2,500.
Many angry fans have taken to Twitter to express their frustration.

Really sucks how Drake is doing his fans this year with these ridiculous prices. Goes to show the artist doesn’t really care about the fans, just the money… #OVOFest pic.twitter.com/qQ8m0ThwO8
