With Taylor Swift's highly anticipated UK and Ireland tour starting in less than 2 weeks, Swifties are buzzing with excitement. However, for those who haven't yet secured their tickets, the hunt is still on. If you were one of the thousands of fans that missed out on the initial ticket sales, or are leaving it until the last-minute, there's still hope to catch the pop icon live in concert.
To guide fans through the process of snagging last-minute tickets, we've compiled expert advice, including insights from Adam Evans, a representative from FanSeats.
1. Recheck Official Websites
Ticketmaster is the official website for all Taylor Swift tickets in the UK, this will be the only place to get seats. Whilst all tickets were sold, in recent days, tickets have been made available. Check online in the days leading up to the show, there is the possibility of extra seats being released to the public.
Adam Evans advises, "Keep a close eye on Ticketmaster's official website in the days leading up to the show. There's always a chance of additional seats becoming available. Don't miss out on the opportunity to secure your spot at the Taylor Swift concert by rechecking the official website for any last-minute releases."
2. Last Minute Resale Platforms:
Resale platforms are a good place to check for last-minute tickets. Websites including StubHub and Seat Compare are currently listing tickets for all dates of The Eras Tour. However, prices still remain high for all UK and Ireland shows.
Adam Evans advises, "Whilst using resale platforms can be expensive, trusted sites do offer protection for buyers in case of any issues. If your budget allows, this is the next best option aside from getting them directly from Ticketmaster."
3. Sign Up for Ticket Notifications:
Many ticketing websites offer alert and notification services that notify users when tickets become available or drop in price. Signing up for these alerts can give you a competitive edge in securing last-minute tickets.
"Subscribe to ticket alerts on reputable ticketing websites," advises Adam Evans. "These notifications can alert you to newly released tickets or even returned tickets, giving you another chance to purchase."
5. Consider Ticket Upgrades:
Consider paying a premium for the VIP tickets if they become available. Whilst they will be high in price, they will sell fast so be prepared to pay." recommends Adam Evans.
6. Avoid Buying via Social Media Channels
A general tip would be to avoid purchasing tickets via social media channels. While it may seem convenient, there's a higher risk of losing money.
"Avoid buying tickets via social media channels. Stick to official and trusted ticketing platforms to ensure a safe and legitimate purchase," cautions Adam Evans from FanSeats.
In conclusion, while the initial ticketing frenzy may have passed, there are still options available for securing last-minute tickets to Taylor Swift's UK and Ireland tour.
As Cian Ferguson from Seat-Compare.com states, "in the week leading up to the concert, stay proactive and explore multiple avenues for securing last-minute tickets. With persistence and careful consideration, you can still be there live."
