Taylor Swift Is Releasing ‘Partially Obstructed’ Tix To The Eras Tour So Here’s What To Expect

mcg eras tour floor plan

Alexandra Koster

General public ticket sales for the Eras Tour kicked off on Friday, June 30 and they were a bloodbath. Now, a final round of tix are going on sale today Friday, November 10. And while there are limited numbers and many are partially obscured side-view tickets, fans are scrambling to get their hands on a chance to be in the same (admittedly large) room as Miss Swift.

So if you’re anything like me, you’re in full delulu mode and planning your Taylor Swift outfits , operating under the assumption that you’ll absolutely get tickets in this final drop despite the fact that literally millions of people are trying to get them, far outweighing ticket availability.

Sounds bad for you, but not me! I’m getting tickets! Surely! Hooray!

At this stage, it’s important to note that being able to buy any ticket at this stage is considered a success . But we’re dreamers here at PEDESTRIAN.TV. We’re also a little bit delulu, envisioning a world where we’ll not only be able to skip the queue and buy tickets, we’ll be able to choose what section we’re getting to sit in.

But even if that’s not at all possible, let’s have a look at the layout of the venue and what we can expect if we do end up with partially constructed side-view tickets.

Luckily, a bunch of Eras concertgoers overseas have kindly spilled the tea on TikTok, sharing what the seats around the stadium actually look like. They’ve shared important things like potential visual obstructions and what your view will actually look like. And also less important things, like how likely you are to be battling hundreds of thousands of teenagers with their phones out for the full two-hour concert duration or the potential to breathe the same air as Taylor (a gift).

Regardless of what you end up with, be assured that there are no bad seats at a Taylor Swift show (except for the one next to me). Trust me, I sat on the very last possible row for her Reputation Tour back in 2018 and it was the best time ever.

So read on for the DL on each seating category for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour and real-life videos about what kind of view you’ll cop based on where you sit.

Taylor Swift Eras Tour seating map: What will seating look like for Sydney and Melbourne shows?

Despite the MCG and Accor Arena being wildly different venues, all Taylor Swift Eras Tour shows have a pretty similar layout in terms of seats and stage design.

All shows will have your standard stadium seating, as well as some extra floor seats closer to the stage.

There are plenty of opportunities to get up close to Tay as all shows have a little runway stage that goes deep into the crowd. On this runway, there’s a big ol’ diamond, which Taylor spends a lot of time in (as she should — boo needs to be front and centre!).

Reserve seating breakdown: Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour

Great, now we can dive into IRL videos of what your view and experience might look like based on the tickets you buy.

While I’d love to be able to give you seat views based on the reserve class, that’s just not possible as we don’t quite know what seats will be under each category.

For example, A Reserve might mean floor tickets near the stage, but it might also mean front-row tickets in the lower bowl. Similarly, you might assume C Reserve is in the grandstands, but it also might mean an obstructed floor ticket. Ya feel?

With that in mind, we’ve rounded up a bunch of vids that show the Eras Tour experience based on where you’re sitting in the stadium. Please note that it’ll be hard to actually gauge how much these will cost you until we’re actually in the blood bath buying tickets.

We’ve all seen those videos of those people that somehow managed to cop front-row tickets on the floor (black magic, probs). But how do floor seats fare when you’re a couple of rows back?

Uh, pretty damn good. While they might be a toughie if you’re really short or bringing kids, the view here is so good, I’d sell my firstborn for it.

They’re also ideal if you really wanna be in on the action, like this TikToker who managed to get confetti’d into oblivion. Love that for her.

Despite everyone standing in Eras Tours videos, floor seating is allocated, so unfortunately, you won’t be able to smoosh that cute little face of yours to the front row unless you actually have tickets there.

To me, the lower bowl is the blend of all things good. You’re close enough that you feel like you’re in on the action, but being a little bit further away from the floor means there’s slightly less chaos around you.

You also have the benefit of being able to see properly thanks to tiered seating, so it’s a good choice for any shorties out there.

Lower bowl seats mean you can also take in the atmosphere as you’ll usually cop a nice 360 view of everything.

This vid was captured “from the 700’s”, which is a nice way of saying the very, very, very back of the stadium.

As you can see, it’s actually a surprisingly schmick view, proving that all seats are good seats.

Obstructed View

An obstructed view can mean a lot of things. It might mean you’ve got a dirty big pole in your way, or it might mean that you’ve been seated at the last possible seat on the side and don’t get a full view of the stage. For those gearing up to buy ticket’s in today’s drop, this is what you’ll have to make peace with.

In this TikTok, we can see that a person is seated almost next to the stage, resulting in a slightly obstructed view. That said, these seats are still pretty good as you’ve got a full view of the diamond, which Taylor spends a lot of time in.

These kind of seats might be worth it if you want to save a buck, just make sure you check what the obstructed view is.

What are the worst seats in Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour?

There’s a popular phrase going around currently: there are no bad seats at a Taylor Swift concert.

But if you’re really concerned about getting bad seats, it’s probably a good idea to steer clear of any seats with obstructed views. It’s also a pretty good rule of thumb that the more expensive your tickets, the better the seats. So with that logic, you’d probably want to avoid F and G Reserve tickets.

That said, I would happily sell my kidneys for any Eras Tours — even if it’s behind a big, fat pole.

Revealed: the seating plan for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour at the MCG

From seating plans to venue capacity, this is everything you need to know about Tay’s shows in Melbourne this week

Leah Glynn

Deep breaths, everyone – today is the day Blondie officially kicks off the Aussie leg of her Eras Tour , and if you're anything like us, this week has been a blur of making friendship bracelets, memorising the setlist and lining up for official merch . But, it's also time to fine-tune all the important details – like planning your route to the MCG , and figuring out exactly where your seats are.

So pop on your heart-shaped sunnies, add a coat of red lippie and grab your bag ( with a maximum of two compartments, and smaller than A4 size ), here's  everything you need to know if you’re headed to see Swift at the MCG.

What’s the Taylor Swift MCG seating plan? 

The MCG has issued a colour-coded map illustrating the seating plan for Swift's three concerts. There are seven key areas across the arena floor and stadium seating bays. It will remain the same for all shows. 

A Reserve – Red

B Reserve – Pink

C Reserve – Orange

D Reserve – Blue

E Reserve – Purple

F Reserve – Green

G Reserve – Yellow

Every single seat at the Melbourne nights of the Eras Tour is assigned, so there's no need to line up early to score a front-row spot (anyone having flashbacks to last year's Harry Styles concerts can breathe a huge sigh of relief).

What’s the MCG's capacity? 

The MCG is enormous, with capacity for 100,000 people. It's expected that 260,000 Swifties  will pour through the gates over the three dates– that's an average of 86,000 a night. The current record holder for the biggest concert crowd at the 'G is none other than Swift's pal Ed Sheeran , who played to a mind-boggling  109,500 fans on March 3, 2023.

How much are Eras Tour tickets in Melbourne? 

If you were one of the lucky ones to snap up tickets, chances are you didn't really care how much they were – as long as they were sitting in your Ticketek app. A Reserve tickets started at $379.90, with the cheapest available from $65.90 (although the view from these seats are partially obstructed). Swift also released six tiers of VIP packages, with the following prices. 

We Never Go Out Of Style Package – $349.90

It’s A Love Story Package – $399.90

Ready For It Package – $599.90

I Remember It All Too Well Package – $749.90

Karma Is My Boyfriend Package – $899.90

It’s Been A Long Time Coming Package – $1249.90

When is Taylor Swift playing in Melbourne?

Melburnians have been lucky enough to score three of Tay Tay's seven Aussie tour dates (the other four are all in Sydney ). The confirmed dates she will be playing at the MCG in 2024 are  February 16 , 17 and 18 .

Taylor swift melbourne seating map shows crucial detail about mcg fans need to know.

Taylor Swift adds two new Australian dates to her Eras tour

As Taylor Swift fans raced for tickets to her Melbourne concerts, one important question was at the forefront of Swifties’ minds.

Where is the best place to sit at the MCG?

WATCH THE VIDEO ABOVE: Taylor Swift ticket frenzy underway.

Swift is the first performer since Madonna in 1993 to perform three concerts at the famed cricket ground.

For those lucky enough to get tickets, the MCG has taken to Twitter to share a colour-coded map of the seating for the Swift concerts, showing the placement of the stage and the A to G reserve seating plans.

But there is one detail on the map that had fans temporarily confused - the black sections, which didn’t have a corresponding colour explanation.

“Perhaps the most coveted map in MCG history,” the tweet was captioned.

“Swifties, your seating chart for the Eras Tour is here.”

The black section on the map actually marks out where tour equipment will be stationed, leading some fans to wonder whether some seats nearby would have obstructed views.

“What are those black sections in the stands?” one fan asked.

“These sections don’t have room for seats as they house general infrastructure and equipment - anything that is an obstructed view will be flagged though,” the MCG social media team responded.

“How do we know if our seats are obstructed? Where is it indicated?” another fan asked.

“This will be clearly stated before purchase - if you can’t see this mentioned, you have not purchased a restricted view seat,” the social media team responded.

US entertainer Taylor Swift

Others were surprised by the stage design, with one arguing the stage should be in the middle for an “in the round” concert experience, to allow more people in.

“I get this is her stage design but the stage should be in the middle if they want to maximise crowd numbers,” the fan wrote.

“Leaving out 20,000+ seats doing it this way.”

“I said that to a Taylor Swift friend of mine. They were certain she was gonna get 100,000 but the staging will not fit 100,000 when at least 3 bays are likely not gonna be in use,” noted another.

“Unless they really squeeze everyone on the turf.”

“Exactly there’s no way. They should just sell the seats behind the stage though if the demand is that high,” agreed another.

“Ed Sheeran played ‘in the round’ and fitted in 109,000,” wrote one Twitter user.

“I reckon she’ll get about 75k-80k. But Ed doesn’t have as many costume changes! (or as big a screen).”

Live Review: Taylor Swift - The Eras Tour @ MCG, Melbourne

'The Eras Tour' is, first and foremost, Taylor Swift’s victory lap. But at three and a half hours long to her largest-ever audience at the MCG, it’s a victory marathon.

More Taylor Swift

It’s strange that for such a seismic cultural moment centred around a simple music concert; the performance might have been its least interesting aspect. Taylor Swift is a veteran performer, schooled in a bruising Nashville country scene, which doesn’t take too kindly to pretenders. She continued to hone her prodigious skill whilst growing up before all of us on the world stage, playing countless arena tours that forged her as the battle-hardened master of her craft we know today. Bruce Springsteen , one of the few other artists of the last fifty years who have captured the Kerouacian romanticised soul of America, and the man who popularised the 3.5-hour mega set would certainly tip his hat to her.

Even the Swift sceptics, the few who have rolled their eyes at the unending hype Australia has endured since this tour’s announcement in June last year, would graciously concede to their Swiftie friend, “I’m sure it will be a good gig!” While those lucky enough to be going know it will be. It’s a well-oiled machine. Would they consciously admit to themselves that after 70+ shows on this tour alone, their self-described anti-hero will be on semi-auto pilot? No. Does it even matter to them? Also no.

The more interesting question about this zeitgeist-crowding American avalanche is: how exactly did it even get like this? How did Taylor Swift become so pervasive, so impossible to avoid – or to put it in more historically accurate terms, how did she win the great (culture) war ? It was only a few years ago – seemingly a lifetime as it was pre-COVID and a whopping four, almost five albums ago (not to mention the TV re-recordings!) – but for the rest of us mortals, it was only five and a half years ago that she arrived in Melbourne, played one gig, and left.

It all happened without too much fuss. If you were a fan, you might have seen it; if you weren’t, you might not have even known she was in the Southern Hemisphere. She did not crash Ticketek; she would have struggled to crash Moshtix, and the #70 tram rolled down Swan Street relatively unabated.

So again, how did we get here? You know, that place where she is credited with helping keep the largest global economy out of a recession. Where her tours rival entire countries in gross domestic product. Where she eclipses Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder and Paul Simon for the most AOTY awards at The Grammys. Where she is shown on camera during the Superbowl more often than a certain Tight End for the Kansas City Chiefs. Where she has our own State government extending the damn free tram zone!? As usual with Taylor Alison Swift, it comes down to narrative.

A single line in the refrain of Bejeweled, the hyper-pop anthem off her most recent album , Midnights, maps this journey best: “Best believe I'm still bejewelled when I walk in the room, I can still make the whole place shimmer .” For those who know their Swift, this is a strangely self-confident assertion. It has swagger. Not usually a word associated with a woman more famous for mining the complexities of heartbreak, self-doubt, anxiety, and regret. But it speaks volumes to the preceding six years Swift has endured and the place she finds herself now because the last time we saw Taylor, just down the road at that soulless building in the Docklands, she wasn’t in the best headspace.

Don't miss a beat with our FREE daily newsletter

We all know what happened. It started with the snatched mic moment at the 2009 VMAs, it escalated with that line in Famous, and it exploded with Kim Kardashian ’s Snapchat videos. The snake emojis flooded Swift’s social media pages, and the next time we saw her, that glimmer of joy had disappeared from her eye, and she released an (underrated) album called Reputation – one that the artist herself describes as “a goth-punk moment of female rage at being gaslit by an entire social structure.”

That 2018 tour essentially had her performing in The Chamber of Secrets, owning the snake iconography and weaponising it against those who had wronged her. It was a PR move deployed during her most debilitating public image crisis - one in which she would ultimately be absolved - but at the time, she still came across as a wounded animal defending herself in any way she could. There was a cognitive dissonance between her playing fun and carefree songs, such as 22 in front of her hysterically happy fans and the simmering anger that was so obviously bubbling under the surface.

Well, who could have predicted the turn of events that unfolded? Her antagonist at large effectively buried himself in a tomb of antisemitic, slavery-revisionist, right-to-choose-abolitionist rants. And Swift made not one, but two indie-folk- Aaron Dessner -produced masterpieces that her (once elitist) ex-boyfriends would approve of . Then she proceeded to break almost every commercial record the music industry has with Midnights .

So here we sit in 2024; the snakes are gone, the rage has dissipated, the wounds have healed, and this phoenix has not only risen from the ashes, she is soaring. The Eras Tour is, first and foremost, Taylor Swift’s victory lap. But at three and a half hours long, it’s a victory marathon. She’s TIME Magazine’s Person of the Year and sits pretty, perched on top of the world, so you best believe she’s now bejewelled, and when she walks in the room, she does make the whole place shimmer. 

But shimmer is a serious understatement. The MCG should probably employ structural engineers to check the foundations before the AFL season begins. It is impossible to imagine the cacophony of this concert unless your cochlear nerve has experienced it. Or to imagine the sight of a horde of Swift disciples on the turf, seemingly moving as one in a tidal wave of excitement whenever she struts down the stage towards them.

And it bears repeating that she has been a very busy woman since she last visited us, so much so that instead of debuting songs off one album, as any artist would at a typical concert, we are hearing songs off Lover , folklore , evermore and Midnights for the first time. For a night that defies hyperbole in so many ways, it is worth underlining the rarity of this detail. So, when the opening notes of Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince ring out onto Australian ears for the first time – a song that is almost five years old – to begin our Eras Tour experience, the crowd is rightly euphoric. When it seamlessly splices into Cruel Summer, the masses of the MCG are sent into a frenzy.

Now, it's pointless running through every song for a concert experience that has only had a few permutations since its first date almost a year ago in Arizona; that’s what setlist.fm is for, but if you are scrolling to find out if she knocked it out of the park, it’s safe to say the ball is still bouncing down Brunton Avenue.

What is surprisingly brilliant is her stagecraft. From Bon Iver ’s woodland shack in folklore to the revenge dress era of 1989, Swift excels at playing into the narrative of each of her lifetimes through choreography, detailed stage sets, and her myriad of glittery, sequined costumes. This allows her not only to relive her past eras with a wink and a nod but also enables those fans who connected with them so purely to fully immerse themselves in the emotional turbulence they remember. It’s a rare but special kind of fan service. And it’s mirrored in the passionate conviction of her singing. You would expect the sting to have gone out of her tail with some of the breakup songs that were written over ten years ago, but she belts out All Too Well – the ten-minute evisceration of poor Jake – with all the venom past Taylor could muster.

This internal dial she has, from vexatious woman on a warpath to cooing coquettish romantic, is swung like a pendulum, and we are all hypnotised, unable to look away from the strutting, posing mastermind who has us resting in the palm of her hand. She guides us through her discography at speed, as if trying to squeeze one more song into the already lengthy show, but there’s an anxiety-relieving aspect of The Eras Tour – that by playing songs from every album (except her twee debut), each fan is guaranteed to hear at least a few songs from their individual favourite era. Except Speak Now . Don’t even start about how dirty she does Speak Now and the continued omission of any and all of Sparks Fly , The Story Of Us and the perfect country-pop song that is Mine .

But whatever petty setlist-related grievances might be laid on her doorstep… why end with the Midnights era? Why persist with a weak single like Look What You Made Me Do ? Why finish the evermore era with tolerate it when one of your best songs, happiness, is right there? They are quickly forgiven during Melbourne’s own Surprise Song setlist. For those uninitiated, the ninth and penultimate act of The Eras Tour is a lottery, with Swift performing two songs that won’t be played on any other date (except Midnights deep cuts, which she can re-use). It’s an ingenious way to play to the diehards while keeping the setlists fresh for her enjoyment and forever the shrewd marketeer; the fact it fuels dialogue about every show is surely not lost on her.

Well, Melbourne struck gold. With a solo guitar version of fan-favourite Red and the live debut of You’re Losing Me on piano, Swift rewarded the largest single crowd of her career (96,000!) with two performances that exemplified her musical prowess. And as confident as she is trapezing around the gigantic stage the MCG affords her with her incredibly talented troupe of dancers, there is still something special about the intimacy of the old Taylor singing to us with a guitar in hand like we are in a small bar in Nashville.

No matter how impressive the dance routine is, the country girl inside her always seems more at ease when playing an instrument to us – and it’s in one of these moments that she drops the news that a new edition of her upcoming album, The Tortured Poets Department will feature a bonus track called The Bolter . This bombshell might not seem like due cause to stop the presses, but Swift has built a universe unto herself, and for her Melbourne acolytes to receive that easter egg personally, it was enough to trigger pandemonium. These moments, where she toggles off from semi-autopilot to make the night seem as unique and authentic as possible to those in front of her, are why she’s as good as she is. It’s why her cult is as devoted as they are; she can somehow make a personal connection with 96,000 people at once.

So where to from here? History says the narrative can only go in one direction. What goes up must come down. However, here is a woman who has flown in the face of history her entire career, who has refused to kowtow to an industry still dominated by men, many of whom have tried and failed to rein her in or control her.

If anything, the success of The Eras Tour is her coup de grâce. Her reign as a cultural tour de force has begun as her influence spreads across everything from U.S political battlegrounds, to major film studio distribution schedules, to global airline routes, to the stock of beads at your local craft store. And if the only local comparison to the sheer size, influence and importance of this event is Michael Jackson ’s Bad tour arriving in Australia in 1987, then perhaps the only logical conclusion is to pronounce Taylor Swift as the official Queen of Pop. Let the coronation begin. Let her bejewelled crown shimmer.

PSA: More Tickets To Taylor Swift’s Melbourne Shows Are About To Drop

Profile picture of ELLE

If you’re reading this article, chances are you missed out on tickets to Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour in Australia , or are desperately trying to secure some for a friend.

Well, your prayers may have been answered, with even more tickets to the Melbourne leg of the Eras Tour available at 4pm, Thursday 15 February. This round of tickets will be avaialble via Ticketek, and with just one day to go before the first Melbourne show begins, we suspect this will be the final drop.

For those who miss out, there’s also resale opportunities to secure tickets to one of the Eras Tour shows in Australia. But, as we saw overseas, getting Eras Tour tickets has been a bit of a struggle for everyone. Issues with ticketing sites, opportunistic scalpers and the sheer competition among fans meant many missed out, so there’s a lot of people holding onto hope for resale tickets.

So, as we anxiously wait for more tickets to be offered up, we’re trying to be as prepped as possible. Here’s some precious intel that will help you get tickets to Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour .

When Will Resale Tickets For The Eras Tour Be Available?

If you didn’t manage to get tickets the first time round then there’s still a chance you might secure those seats. Resale is now available for anyone with a Ticketek account through TMarketplace.

It will allow anyone with tickets to list theirs on the platform, available to be sold at up to 10 per cent more to someone else. When they’re resold, a new barcode is issued so that the original owner of the tickets can no longer attend the Eras Tour.

There are other third-party sites that will be selling tickets, but Ticketek warns any ticket not sold through TMarketplace could be at risk of cancellation, with the ticket price refunded to the original seller.

The resale platform will be open from now until closer to the concert, allowing fans lots of time to list their tickets if their plans change.

How To Get Tickets To Taylor Swift

Tickets for the Eras Tour went on sale across a series of drops.

AMEX Presale

The first pre-sale tickets were offered to American Express credit card holders, who could purchase tickets from June 26.

Frontier Touring Presale

The pre-sale, courtesy of Taylor’s Australian tour promoters, Frontier Touring was available on June 28.

General Sale

The general sale of tickets started on June 30.

The resale date for the Eras Tour ticket resale was moved back from September 4 to November 24.

From November 24, tickets are on sale from 10am on the TMarketplace. This is the only official place to buy tickets and any tickets purchased on other platforms are at risk of being cancelled by the ticketing company – in an effort to avoid scalping.

Tickets will not be able to be sold for more than 10 per cent of their value.

Additional tickets, including partially obstructed side-view seats have already been released, so it’s unlikely we’ll see another round of additional seating.

What Are The Best & Worst Seats For Taylor Swift’s Australian Eras Tour?

Swifties know everything (fact) and some beautifully generous fans are sharing some precious first-hand info about the best seats on the Eras Tour.

Those who have attended shows along Swift’s US tour have taken to TikTok to share the view from their respective seats, providing precious insight into what kind of view you’ll get, from where.

Both Australian arenas — like her international shows — have a similar layout and stage design, with an aisle and diamond-shaped platform protruding into the floor section.

You can also see where sound stages or other potential obstructions are on the floor (those are the greyed or blacked-out sections).

The Best Seats For Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour

Let’s take this per section…

Floor Seating, A-Reserve

Floor seating is, of course, allocated. There will be no rushing the stage or camping out for a front row position. You’ll have to duke it out with everyone else online.

If you’re towards the front of the floor sections (closer to the stage) you’ll be winning… But not all floor seating is created equal (more on that below).

It should be said, that floor seating is often about the vibe more than anything else.

The ‘lower bowl’ sections, i.e. the elevated seating around the sides is reportedly stellar, and superior to many floor section seats.

if you can get to the sides of the ‘diamond stage’ section, you will be loving life!

Here’s one such view …

The Worst Seats For Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour

Floor Seating

We’ve been through the pros of floor seating at the Eras Tour, but there have been many reports that you can’t see anything from the back of the floor sections. This could potentially include parts of B, C (outer), D & E floor sections, which is something to be mindful of for the cost.

Views can be obscured by people standing in front of you, and may be particularly tricky if you’re bringing along kids or anyone with a height disadvantage in the context.

Obstructed view

Of course, it’s wise to be wary of any tickets that come with an ‘obstructed view’ warning. However, here ‘s one such example from the US tour and, as you can see, the view wasn’t really ‘obstructed’ at all. (Watch below)

Nosebleed section

Again, this depends on how you define ‘bad’. It’s long been known that the nosebleed section is the furthest away from the action, and it’s the reason why it’s so cheap. However, for many, the price will be unbeatable (G-Reserve starts from $79.90, compared to $379.90 for A-Reserve). You’ll still be there at Taylor Swift’s record-breaking Eras Tour — enjoy the ride!

As they say, there are no bad seats at the Eras Tour.

Ticket scalping and purchasing resale tickets

Do not purchase tickets from anywhere other than the official ticketing agency.

Please read the  Live Performance Australia Safe Tix Guide .  

We have not allocated any tickets for the Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour to unauthorised resellers (which include but are not limited to Viagogo; Stubhub; Ticketfinders; The Ticket Merchant; Worldticketshop; and Tixel).  

We cannot guarantee any ticket purchased through unauthorised resellers or via websites such as eBay, Gumtree and social media Buy Swap Sell pages. To make sure you pay the correct ticket price and receive valid tickets, you must purchase via Ticketek Australia.  

Frontier and Ticketek are not responsible for unauthorised ticket disputes and are unable to assist you if you purchase outside the official ticketing agency (Ticketek Australia). 

What is unethical secondary ticketing and ticket resale?

Unethical secondary ticketing is when people buy tickets at face value and then resell them at inflated prices via unapproved methods and websites, thus denying real fans the chance to buy at face value. 

This includes ticket touts and unauthorised resellers who use multiple payment cards, false identities and sophisticated computer programmes (‘bots’) to buy up large amounts of tickets which they then offer for resale at highly inflated prices. 

How do I safely sell my tickets?

The reselling of any Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour ticket is strictly forbidden other than through Ticketek's official resale platform (called Ticketek Marketplace). Ticketek Marketplace is accessible HERE .  

Ticketek Marketplace opened for the listing and resale of tickets at 10am AEDT on Friday 24 November 2023 and is available up until12pm AEDT on the show date for all tickets except VIP Packages and Hotel + Ticket Packages. 

What else are you doing to combat the secondary market?

Your mobile phone number is linked to your ticket order. Your tickets are linked to both your Ticketek account AND your mobile phone number. This means your ticket and the individual information you gave when you purchased your ticket are linked. If a ticket is resold in any method other than via Ticketek's official resale platform, then the mobile phone number will not be linked to the ticket(s) and you will be refused entry to the venue.

What do I do if I get to the venue and believe I have purchased a fraudulent ticket?

If you have purchased tickets from anywhere other than the authorised ticketing agency, Ticketek, or their resale platform, Ticketek Marketplace, you risk not being granted entry to the venue. If you have any issues with your ticket on show day, please head directly to the venue Box Office. Please note, Box Office staff cannot assist those who may have obtained tickets through channels other than Ticketek or Ticketek Marketplace. You must have valid photo ID which matches the name of the Ticketek account for the Box Office staff to be able to assist you.

Did Taylor Swift reveal her re-recording release order at The Eras Tour Madrid?

M adrid, Spain - Taylor Swift has sparked a rush of new theories about her next re-recording after seemingly teasing her release plans at The Eras Tour in Madrid.

During Thursday's show at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, the 34-year-old pop star treated fans to surprise songs from her self-titled debut and Reputation – the only re-recordings she has left to release.

Based on her recent patterns, Swifties are convinced that because she released a new album with The Tortured Poets Department this year, the final two re-recordings will drop in 2025.

Fans have long assumed Reputation (Taylor's Version) would arrive first, but Taylor's Easter eggs on The Eras Tour have called that into question!

Her latest acoustic set saw Our Song, which was mashed up with Fearless's Jump Then Fall, come before the Reputation hit King of My Heart, leading some to wonder whether the move could've been a hint that debut may come first after all!

Will Taylor Swift release her debut re-recording before Reputation?

At her latest shows, Taylor seemingly teased both albums with themed bracelets for the floor sections.

The debut-inspired bands, which were green with black butterflies, came first, followed by black bracelets with white snakes, clearly paying homage to Reputation.

Taylor is known for shaking things up – think back to when just about everyone assumed 1989 (Taylor's Version) was coming in summer 2021 before she dropped the bombshell that Red (Taylor's Version) was coming instead!

The Grammy winner pulled the twists of all twists in February when Reputation (Taylor's Version) theories hit a fever pitch.

Instead of announcing the re-recording, she shocked everyone with news of The Tortured Poets Department.

So, there's really no way to predict what this mastermind is planning!

Taylor continues The Eras Tour with two shows in Lyon, France, beginning on Sunday.
