Ticket prices for Adele's final concert in November have skyrocketed after the star announced she was stepping away from music for a long time.

The 'Someone Like You' singer has ten shows left on her Las Vegas residency and fans have been desperate to get tickets before the star takes a break from the music industry.

Tickets costing $400 (AED 1,400) for the November 23 show are now going for anywhere between $3,800 (AED 14,000) and $17,000 (AED 62,000) according to ticketing platform Viagogo.

The prices are the latest in surging concert tickets, after Oasis fans were subjected to 'dynamic pricing' from Ticketmaster, meaning prices surged due to demand.

Experts say the pricing for the band's UK tour may be in breach of consumer law. The band changed the pricing structure for new London dates added to the schedule.
