Taylor Swift‘s presale for her first tour in five years broke sales records as millions of fans rushed to snap up tickets despite glitches affecting Ticketmaster’s system and backlash from politicians over the ticket seller’s power.
Ms. Swift’s 52-date stadium run sold over two million tickets on Tuesday—more than any other artist in a single day, according to the company. Tuesday’s presale was limited to a select group of people who had registered with Ticketmaster, part of an effort to ensure that actual fans, rather than scalpers, got first crack at tickets.
You spelt Ticketmaster wrong….
Who runs Ticketmaster sales? The U.S.’s Election Administration? Neither can plan appropriately ahead…. or maybe one can 🤔.
swiftiealways22 Not Taylor! Ticketmaster is canceling it because they failed to sell tickets in a fair way. A gross money grab.
But hey…at least these “true fans” were able to get tickets and are now selling them on stub hub. Well done, Ticketmaster and taylorswift13!
And the Resellers rejoice
Just cancel the whole tour that's the fairest thing to do.
It’s about to be January 6th (Taylor’s Version) 😂
