May I say the tickets for the concert finished? Did I use the verb "to finish" correctly or I have to replace it with end, end or something else?

Thanks in advance

Are you trying to say that the tickets sold out?
 
Tickets 'expire'.
Once the concert has ended the tickets are no longer 'valid'.

"The tickets for the concert have expired; they are no longer valid for admission."

Ah, nice catch, Chicken! But wouldn't it be more appropriate to say that the concert is sold out? ;-)

Well, before posting, I checked a few sources and I found some citations of tickets being sold out. Here's one:

Tickets to the concert sold out quickly.
Merriam-Webster's Learner's Dictionary

(I'm not saying I disagree with you, by the way ;-).)
 
If I had known that the concert was going to be that good I would have bought my tickets before they sold out!!!!! :up: :cool: ;-)
