Unusable Palau de la Musica Catalana Tickets - Ideas? (due to Rookie Mistake)

Hi All,

Unfortunately, I was overzealous and bought tickets for a Performance at the Palau de la Musica Catalana before our plans were finalized and we can no longer use them. Nonrefundable tickets, of course. Any ideas of how to re-sell, gift, donate?

Many thanks in advance!

In the US, you can contact the venue, and "turn in" the tickets so that the venue can resell. Nothing given to you the donor, except perhaps a tax deduction for the ticket price. (unless you are a series subscriber and eligible for exchanges)

No idea if contacting a venue in these situations and returning the tickets to them is common in Spain. I have known people who stood outside venues and attempted to "scalp" unneeded tickets. I suppose that is workable only if a concert is popular and sold out - and I wouldn't attempt it without knowing the local laws!!
