Good news for Taylor Swift fans who missed out on tickets

It had been previously announced that Swift would play two shows at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on February 16 and 17 2024, before moving to Sydney’s Accor Stadium for a three-show run on the 23rd, 24th, and finishing up on the 25th.

There will now be an additional show in Melbourne at the same venue on February 18, with an extra also tacked on in Sydney on the 26th.

It means Swift, 33, will become the first artist since Madonna in 1993 to perform three concerts at the MCG - and the first artist ever to perform four at Sydney’s Accor Stadium.

General ticket sales for all of the shows will open via Ticketek from 10am tomorrow for Sydney and then 2pm for the Melbourne run.

Highest-grossing tour of all time

During Wednesday’s presale event, it was reported around four million fans were fighting it out for tickets to the shows, with a total of just 450,000 tickets available, including presales and general sale.

Swift’s Eras tour, on track to become the highest-grossing music tour of all time, encompasses her vast body of work over the past 17 years, and is split into 10, non-chronological ‘eras’ for each of her albums.

The more than three-hour long show kicks off with Lover (she performs six songs from this album), before moving onto Fearless (three songs), evermore (five songs), reputation (four songs), Speak Now (one song), Red (four songs, including the 10 minute version of All Too Well), folklore (seven songs), 1989 (five songs), Taylor Swift (one song) and wrapping with seven songs from her most recent album, Midnights.
