Taylor Swift tickets

Originally my friend and I were just going to hang out in the parking lot at our car but as the sun began set and we were beginning to settle in our camping chairs for the next 4hrs with wine in hand, we kind said screw it-we're buying last min tix to join in on the fun. Yes, they were not cheap and I feel a little gross that we clearly got price gouged given what I know I paid for my DD's seats, but hey, it was Mother's Day, yolo and all that stuff. I had been trying in all the ticket drops (for myself) and felt like between driving up there, helping my daughter put together her outfit, preparing for this event, etc., we had invested so much time in this concert, might as well just go! And I don't regret it. There were thousands who had set up chairs outside the stadium to listen in, so that is an option for anyone who just wants to be near her and listen in, but it was a chilly night to do that in Philly and you're kind of just sitting in the dark listening (the party happening on 11th street on the other side of the stadium maybe was more lively). We had "obstructed" view tickets on the upper deck, but other than not being able to see the main screen on the stage, you could see and experience everything, plus anytime she wasn't on the catwalk or diamond (which was rare) you could watch her on the stadium screens, of which there were plenty. I'd say if you dont yet have tickets, just bypass the drops and watch the tickets on the resell sites. The lowest we found day of were $1,000 plus fees. nothing in philly was below that. Pittsburgh might be different and resell tix in Nashville the weekend before were far more reasonable. Philly had demands placed on it from the beginning since she basically skipped over the DMV, but maybe other cities will be slightly more reasonable. I personally wouldn't drive a long distance just to listen in, but if you can get same day tix or tix a few days before, just do it. Especially if you have a TS fan who wants to go. My daughter absolutely loved the show. I thought it was great but to her, this was like watching her dream come true.

Yes to all of this. Pure disgust at what we did pay per ticket. BUT it was incredible show! Lowest we saw all weekend was 900 an hour before she went on fri pm. But cell service was very spotty so it would’ve been near impossible to buy those tickets outside the stadium.

Keep an eye on Pittsburgh.

We live in CO. The weekend before the tour opened I bought tickets 3 for $650 plus SH fees for Denver. Total $2700. Now it would be 5k easily.

Denver got very expensive right after she announced Speak Now TV since it’s the weekend after the album will be released.

I’m guessing that the prices for the Pittsburgh tickets will go up after the shows in NYC Memorial Day weekend.

I don’t know how anyone is affording this.

All shows are getting more expensive as scalpers have seen what happened in Nashville in Philadelphia. Not a single ticket for any city currently listed under $1200 plus fees.

This is very true. Out of my group of girlfriends/mom friends, only 2 of us didn't go for Philly. I went to Nashville and another friend went to Tampa. The other 12 or so all got tickets for Philly or bought them through resell avenues.

I don't understand how so many young people are affording multiple shows!

I watched a TikTok livestream last night from a young woman who was at her 4th Taylor show on this tour! And not only that, but she also has tickets for Boston and Denver.

My ticket to Nashville night 1 was $263 with fees during the presale. I scored a floor seat ticket for $86 with fees for Nashville night 2 during a ticket drop. It's possible she's just very very lucky during the drop periods and is getting face-value tickets, but even so, that's a lot of $$ to spend on travel to each of these locations.

My niece got front row for $500 something each for one of the Kansas City shows and I was like wow, that's pricey. She's a 25 year old super fan with some extra cash

The fact that people are paying 1000-2000 bucks is flipping shocking!

Wow. I know someone who travelled to Nashville for the show, now I get why.

Went last night with my daughter and niece, it was the night of a lifetime. I bought tickets resale but before Christmas and they were about 600 each for nosebleeds, I gambled that the prices would just go up and looks like I was right. I would pay it again in a heartbeat. The show was amazing and to be there on Mother’s Day with my daughter and see her tears of joy, I’ll never top it.

I agree that it’s hard to understand how so many can pay so much for a ticket. Especially a ticket for a kid. Not sure it’s a good lesson to teach kids.

I got nosebleeds during the presale and they weren’t that much. I think I paid less than $200 per ticket. The expensive part was the hotel, the absurd food prices at Lincoln field and the merch. For us it was a once in a lifetime experience.

Honestly, I was going back and forth between Nashville and Philly. All my friends in this area picked Philly. I had a feeling that Philly would sell out faster because there were no nearby DMV shows.

I have been to Philly several times and had never been to Nashville, so I went with that option. I'm glad I did. I still had to wait online for 8 hours to get the chance to buy a ticket, but once I was in to make the purchase, I was able to get one of the 3 areas I wanted and was able to pick a seat on the end of a row + the one next to it. Also, I don't care what anyone says, there WAS dynamic pricing in play. The tickets for Nashville were significantly lower than Philly. I sat in the same room on the same couch next to my friend who was going for Philly. Her 200-level ticket, which is what I had in Nashville, was almost $400 with fees!

+1. I got tickets from a friend of a friend for face value, not everyone is paying outrageous amounts.

Sorry you gotta be so mean, but I'm still in the Afterglow from last night's concert. It was the best day.
