  • If you are going to more than one show, book one apartment for the whole stay rather than moving between nights
  • The Sydney shows start on 25 May, so fans following the tour can stay on in Melbourne for a few days
  • Groups usually save per person in a two- or three-bedroom apartment compared with separate hotel rooms
