Anyone who purchased tickets to a Madonna show last year probably knows that they paid $300 USD for the most expensive concert tickets in 2007. Madonna doesn’t hold the record for the most expensive concert tickets ever, though. That honor goes to Led Zeppelin, whose tickets were recently auctioned off for £83,000 ($164,929 USD) for a pair.
Later, three more pairs of tickets to see the legendary English rock band responsible for “Stairway to Heaven” were auctioned off with a reserve price of £5,000 ($9,935 USD). All of the tickets were for the Ahmet Ertegün Tribute Concert at the o2 Arena on December 10th, 2007 and the auctions were all for charity—Children in Need and the Action for Brazil’s Children Trust (ABC), respectively.
