The '''Tyrannian Concert Hall''', located on the Plateau in [[Tyrannia]], hosts the performances of [[Neopia]]'s bands. 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]] the [[Mynci]], from Mynci and Sons Event Security, Inc.
The '''Tyrannian Concert Hall''', a [[Wikipedia:Stonehenge|Stonehenge]]-like construction, is located on the Plateau in [[Tyrannia]], where it hosts the performances of [[Neopia]]'s bands. It held the first concert on March 29, 2001 featuring the Sticks N' Stones. 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..
 
The Tyrannian Concert Hall currently offers performances of fifteen different bands. Each band has one or more standard days to perform on. When a new band is added, a performance day is taken from another band and given to the new band. The bands' animations and concert preloader were updated on November 2, 2005.


==Ticket Booth==
==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.


The Ticket Booth, located near by to the Concert Hall, is responsible for selling the tickets to the daily band, which is booked by the Booth's owner, [[Skalpo]] the [[Techo]]. While the tickets, as an actual [[item]], 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 monopolization 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]].
