Radio and television stations sometimes hold contests to win VIP backstage passes to meet artists after their shows. Generally, all you have to do is call in at the right time or answer a trivia question correctly to win. Some VIP tickets also include backstage or premium seating passes, giving you the best possible view to watch Harry’s concert. The price of meet and greet tickets varies per venue, but they’re typically over $2,000. For specific tour and ticket information, head over to Harry’s official website.

Tickets to these events vary in price depending on the show, venue, and city. Keep a watchful eye on Harry’s social media pages to see if he (or anyone else) is promoting a future appearance or interview.

Check the nominations and program for the awards before purchasing a ticket. Even if Harry isn’t scheduled to perform, present, or accept an award, he may still make an appearance to support his fellow musicians. Purchase your tickets on credible ticket-selling sites, like StubHub or ticketmaster, to lessen your chances of getting scammed.

Tell him how much you like his music. Ask him a silly personality question you’ve always wanted to know, like what his favorite pizza topping is. Share a brief story about how something he’s done positively affected your life. Give him a genuine compliment about his outfit, music, or general style.

Use your letter to tell Harry how much his music means to you. Include pictures, artwork, or handmade items in your envelope for an extra special touch. Write from the heart! You won’t know for sure if Harry will read your letter, but if he does, make sure your words are full of warmth and kindness.

Keep something for Harry to sign in your bag wherever you go, just in case—it never hurts to be prepared!

If you see Harry out and about, assess the situation to see if it’s a good time to approach him. For instance, if he’s rushing into a car, it may not be the right time to flag him down. If he’s having lunch with friends, try approaching him before his food arrives.

Harry is the most active on Twitter and Instagram but also has a Facebook page.

Follow social media trends and use hashtags, so your posts reach more people (and potentially Harry himself). Get creative with your posts. The more unique your content is, the more people will be interested in it. Name your account something Harry-specific, like @harrystylesnewsupdates or @harrysfans.

Try searching “Harry Styles sightings in [name of your city]” to see if Harry is in your area—maybe you can plan on meeting him outside of a local hotel or restaurant you recognize. Fan blogs and sites can give just as much intel as established entertainment companies. Check out Harry Styles Nework for the latest fan-generated news.
