Anthony Bourdain
Just curious ... is anyone going? There's still good tickets left in Calgary. Not sure what his other Western Canadian stops are.

Got my tickets this morning and as far as I can tell I think this may be his only Canadian stop!

What is Bourdain "flogging" now? New book?
I quite enjoy him as well as the "No Reservations" episodes I have enountered more out of "happenstance" than design.

I got tickets during the presale...looking forward to it! I saw him once before and he's a really entertaining speaker. It's worth the money if you're into food, travel and can handle a bit of potty mouth :)

I'm going with a group of people too. Looking forward to it. Janice Beaton is hosting a meet and greet of some type- but it costs extra and I'm thinking might be kind of awkward so I'm not going to that.

Wish he was coming to Vancouver -- he's one of my original Chow crushes.

We thought about the VIP tickets, but I was worried it was going to be too late of a night and awkward as well. We got our tickets too :o)

I wonder if he's doing any filming here. I would love to see a show about Rocky Mountain cuisine on No Reservations.

My wife and I are going..love his show...it would be awesome if Zamir was with him, but I know that's too much to hope for.

It's supposed to be a Kitchen Confidential talk, apparently.

I had some issues with the online purchasing. It threw up an error the first go round. But I hit the back button and tried again, and it seemed to go through, fingers crossed.
should be a fun night.

That happened to me too. I have to phone them tomorrow as I got two confirmations by e-mail -- don't want to be charged twice.

*sighs* I WANT to go. I was so happy to find out he was coming here.
Then I looked at the date and gave an emphatic 'shit!' I'm going to be in the Turks and Caicos at that time...

I will gladly give up my tickets if you want to switch. ;)

Cool thanks for the heads up. Got some tickets, tho the site was hard to navigate and I got errors like some of the other people.

Ha, probably a stupid question.... anyone or know of anyone willing to part with their VIP tickets for the right price? My friend would die to get these and I would love to surprise her for christmas.... I unfortunately missed the boat on the early ticket sales. Otherwise, I will be more than happy to purchase regular tix, but it's worth a try isn't it??
Cheers!

AHHHH, I just came back to Canada after a whole month in the States and I just found out today!!! Where can I get tickets?!?!?! How much are they?!?! Where can I buy them etc etc.!!!!!

35 dollars I believe and the link to the place on the Epcor site to purchase them is http://tickets.epcorcentre.org/single...

I paid $75.00/per ticket and I got 2 tickets for seats in Zone 2. I hope they're decent seats. .......I also paid an extra 2 dollars to get it mailed as well...I hope they do come :S

Don't worry -- we always choose zone 2. I'm short so I can see above everyone, yet you get the intimacy of the stage. It's great to see so many chowhounders going. It'll be fun to discuss this online after the event.

Has anyone recieved their tickets in the mail yet?
I have never ordered from Epcor Center before so I wasnt sure if this was like ticketmaster where they just mail it to you when its convenient for them or if they sent them when you ordered them. Since I had some of the trouble that others had online I just wanted to check.
Permalink | Reply
No, but I expect they will send it closer to the time like Ticket Master. If you received your confirmation via e-mail I wouldn't worry.
