According to Live Nation, most events have a standing ticket limit of eight per person, but you are able to buy as many $25 Concert Week tickets for as many shows as you'd like, while inventory lasts.

Remember that you'll be able to begin looking at which specific shows are included as part of the $25 ticket deal beginning May 10th, and you can also narrow down your search by venue as well.
