If you didn’t get tickets to the Eras Tour, you may now have a second chance: Taylor Swift announced that she will be releasing additional tour tickets for select fans who weren’t able to purchase any during the Verified Fans pre-sale, per a report fromThe fans who will have access to the second sale have already been contacted via email, and, per a note from Ticketmaster, are limited to those who purchased merch and received a boost for the pre-sale but were still barred from buying tickets.
The note didn’t specify a specific time or date for the sale, only that it would take place sometime before Dec. 23, and that the sale times for each tour date will be staggered, presumably to prevent the website from crashing again. Selected fans will get more updates and instructions on how to participate in the sale on an as-yet-unannounced future date.
The incident prompted a slew of angry complaints from fans and even reached Congress, who has since announced that a U.S. senate anti-trust panel would hold aon Ticketmaster and its parent company Live Nation regarding the lack of competition and its dominance in the ticket sales and distribution industry.
Ticketmaster released their own lengthy statement on Nov. 19, apologizing for the disastrous ticket rollout and explaining what happened behind the scenes. In a statement, the company largely blamed the incident on bots, as well as fans who weren’t invited to participate in the pre-sale but were visiting the website anyway, were to blame for the problems.
