Taylor Swift tickets help!

Tickets4teen · 08/06/2023 22:34

My DD (14) is a massive Taylor fan. She is very excited at the thought of her touring UK and is desperate to see her. I've told her it was be very difficult to get tickets and sites will probably crash/sell out in minutes as they did in USA. I'm trying to manage her expectations but DD gets very upset when I say this! We've had a difficult couple of years (divorce and a bereavement) and I really would love to be able to take her. I've signed up to Taylor's websites for notifications, but does anyone have any hints/tips on other ways to help get a ticket.... priority websites etc?! Thanks in advance!

we all applied only one person got an email saying she's on the wait list .
i've seen her in her last tour at wembley and she was amazing!!

HidingInAForest · 05/07/2023 17:45

On the wait list for Wembley?

I thought the generic emails only had come out!

Fizbosshoes · 05/07/2023 17:56

I'm confused as I thought we were getting codes today (and some people apparently have)....but now saying codes by midnight next Friday....?

DD applied for a different code in October which means she (delegated to me!!) can attempt to buy tickets on Monday ....I think

Interested in this thread?

The European dates have emailed today and told people if they are selecyed/waitlist, but not the UK dates, that will be before next Friday at Midnight.

HidingInAForest · 05/07/2023 18:26

So wembky has 6 dates...

Will they all price the same as each other? I don't know how this works?

TravellingSpoon · 05/07/2023 18:38

Yes, 3 in June and 3 in August.

HidingInAForest · 05/07/2023 18:41

Yes. Will they all be the same price as each other?

Is there any advantage to trying for any particular one?!

JustLurkingAway · 05/07/2023 19:08

Midnights presale is now split between ticketmaster and axs, you get allocated one via email. New dates & times as well I believe

Rockbird · 06/07/2023 10:44

No email. Panicking slightly.

Mummyme87 · 06/07/2023 13:58

@Rockbird uk emails haven’t gone out yet.

JessieEssex · 10/07/2023 08:00

Late to the chat here sorry - I pre registered through Ticketmaster and had a confirmation email from them at the time. But didn't receive anything at all on the 5th, not the AEG email that others are referring to. I know more is to come this week but should I be concerned that the AEG email didn't come?

HidingInAForest · 10/07/2023 08:09

Anyone pre-saling today?!?!?

I've looked at a picture of the layout and can't work out where we'd go (if there's even a choice..... we'll be in the cheap seats wherever!)

Coronado2 · 10/07/2023 08:29

Tomorrow for Paris is my first attempt.

lucysmam · 10/07/2023 08:36

@JessieEssex I think the codes from registering on Ticketmaster are released this week - current ones are from pre-sales of Midnights last October, so don't panic yet.

KenAdams · 10/07/2023 08:47

No luck through Ticketmaster but I've managed to get some via another channel. So relieved but can't say anything until Christmas!

HidingInAForest · 10/07/2023 08:50

We've got a family member with a disability so we ring the same time as the presale (1pm here) .

I have never done this before and have no idea what they'll offer/how much or what to ask for (in the unlikely event we get through!!!)

JustLurkingAway · 10/07/2023 09:06

Good luck to anyone trying today!

Fizbosshoes · 10/07/2023 09:09

I'm trying for the presale today - with the code from the midnight's presale. I feel so under pressure!!! DD has lots of faith in me because i got her Harry Styles tickets but I think demand for these is gonna be off the scale!

HidingInAForest · 10/07/2023 09:10

Oooh Fizzboss any hints? Do we find out the price at point of sale?

I've never booked tickets like this before (just regular theatre tickers where you just ... book!)

Ostryga · 10/07/2023 09:12

Usually on Ticketmaster once you’re through to the ticket screen it will list options that are available. You can sort by best seats or lowest price. Once you’re at the ticket screen you have 5 minutes to choose, book and pay for them, so save your card details on Ticketmaster beforehand so it’s quick!

JustLurkingAway · 10/07/2023 09:12

I think I'm aiming for both Saturdays at WembleyConfused

The horror of facing paying a king's ransom to be trapped in a merch and hugely overpriced hot dog hell surrounded by thousands of screaming fans all holding their phones high in the air. The horror ......

You know it's not compulsory, right?

Haha! Taylor is huge here!! Everyone we know is waiting for UK dates to drop.
My DDs are desperately worried that her tour will clash with exams next year.

For a long time she wasn't anywhere near as big (still big tho with UK #1 albums, but never Adele/Sheeran big), but that's changed over the last two or three years.

Six nights at Wembley now, three nights at Anfield (the most iconic club stadium in England!), she's adding gigs to meet the huge demand.

Right now the only thing that could surpass her in sales would be if John Lennon (w/ The Beatles), Freddie Mercury (w/ Queen), Elvis or Michael Jackson returned from the dead and started touring.

Sorry no, presale codes are a new one for me as well. I got the HS tickets on 02 priority (a day early than general release) but it seemed straightforward.
I presume ticket prices will show if/when you reach the sale after the queue...? DD and I have agreed a limit she/I will spend so hopefully there will be some available in thar bracket.

ApolloandDaphne · 10/07/2023 11:25

My DD1 has just messaged to say her friend has managed to score 4 tickets for the Friday in edinburgh. She is beyond excited. DD2 is feeling miffed as she and her friends haven't managed to get any yet.
