Harry Styles tickets

Harry Styles tickets are in a high-demand stretch as presales roll out for his 2026 Together, Together tour, built around a headline-grabbing 30-show run at Madison Square Garden in New York. By late Wednesday, January 28, 2026, several early windows were already underway, with additional presales and general on-sales scheduled in waves depending on the exact show date.

Together, Together becomes a residency-style tour with MSG as the only U.S. stop

Rather than a traditional city-by-city run, Together, Together is being positioned as a limited-city global residency format, with multi-night blocks in major markets. In the United States, the plan centers on Madison Square Garden alone, with 30 dates that begin Wednesday, August 26, 2026 and continue through Saturday, October 31, 2026.

The scale is part of the story: 30 nights at MSG is both a huge number of shows and a single, concentrated destination for U.S. demand. Some specifics have not been publicly clarified, including how ticket inventory is divided across every presale type for every date.

Harry Styles presale and Amex presale windows you need to know

For New York, the onsale schedule is grouped by clusters of dates, and the start times differ by cluster. The Amex presale is tied to using an eligible American Express card at checkout, and access is limited by availability; no code is required for the standard Amex presale entry.

Here’s how the New York schedule breaks down in Eastern Time:

For the earliest MSG dates (August 26, 28, 29; September 2 and 4): Amex presale starts Monday, January 26, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. ET; artist presale starts Tuesday, January 27 at 11:00 a.m. ET; general on-sale begins Friday, January 30 at 11:00 a.m. ET.
For September 5, 9, 11, 12, and 16: Amex presale begins Monday, January 26 at 2:00 p.m. ET; artist presale begins Tuesday, January 27 at 2:00 p.m. ET; general on-sale begins Friday, January 30 at 11:00 a.m. ET.
For September 18, 19, 23, 25, and 26: Amex presale begins Wednesday, January 28 at 11:00 a.m. ET; artist presale begins Thursday, January 29 at 11:00 a.m. ET; general on-sale begins Friday, January 30 at 2:00 p.m. ET.
For September 30; October 2, 3, 7, and 9: Amex presale begins Wednesday, January 28 at 2:00 p.m. ET; artist presale begins Thursday, January 29 at 2:00 p.m. ET; general on-sale begins Friday, January 30 at 2:00 p.m. ET.
For October 10, 14, 16, 17, and 21: Amex presale begins Monday, February 2 at 11:00 a.m. ET; artist presale begins Tuesday, February 3 at 11:00 a.m. ET; general on-sale begins Wednesday, February 4 at 11:00 a.m. ET.
For October 23, 24, 28, 30, and 31: Amex presale begins Monday, February 2 at 2:00 p.m. ET; artist presale begins Tuesday, February 3 at 2:00 p.m. ET; general on-sale begins Wednesday, February 4 at 11:00 a.m. ET.

There is also an artist presale sign up step: the registration window for the artist presale closes Sunday, January 25, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. ET. Further specifics were not immediately available about how many tickets will be allocated to each presale category on every single date.

How the ticketing process works in practice, and why it feels intense

Presales typically function like controlled early-access lanes. Cardmember presales require an eligible card to complete the purchase, artist presales often require advance registration, and general on-sales open the remaining inventory to everyone at a set time. Inventory can be segmented between these lanes, purchase limits apply, and queue position can matter as much as seat selection speed once the sale starts.

For this run, the purchase limit is set at eight tickets per sale. Another detail that can surprise buyers: mobile ticket delivery often shows the order first, while the scannable barcode may not appear until close to the event date, sometimes roughly 48 hours beforehand.

Who’s affected: fans, travelers, and the MSG neighborhood economy

The most affected group is straightforward: fans trying to buy at face value during Harry Styles presale windows and general on-sales. A second group is cardholders aiming for the Amex presale, where the advantage is timing, not guaranteed availability. A third group includes travelers planning flights and hotels around a single U.S. city, which can raise the stakes on getting a workable date.

There’s also an economic ripple effect around MSG. A 30-night run can spread demand across weeks, boosting nearby restaurants, bars, hotels, and transit patterns in a way a single stadium date can’t. For fans, though, concentration cuts both ways: more total nights, but also a bigger national and international pull into one arena.

As the schedule moves forward, the next milestone is the general public on-sale wave: Friday, January 30, 2026 for several MSG date clusters, followed by Wednesday, February 4, 2026 for later October dates. After that, the next concrete checkpoints tend to be delivery updates and event-day information released closer to each show.
