SINGAPORE – The next battle in The Great War for Taylor Swift concert tickets is under way, after the pre-sale tickets to the American pop star’s Singapore shows in March 2024 sold out within three hours.
Among the fans hoping to catch Swift at one of her six shows at the National Stadium in 2024 was polytechnic student Nellie Titus, 18, and her friends. However, an article that appeared in ST on Tuesday – “outing” the post office as being relatively less crowded than other branches and hence providing a higher chance of securing tickets – intensified their stress.Ticketing platform Ticketmaster – the alternative method which requires fans to join an online queue – was out of the question for them as it “usually crashes and doesn’t handle huge volume well”.
It helps that her home is only a couple of bus stops away and family members are willing to take turns to stand in line when she needs a break. Hoping to be second time lucky, another fan, Ms Casey James, was first in line with her friend at Sengkang Central Post Office at 5pm.Not only is this the nearest branch to her home, but it was also where she scored tickets to British rock band Coldplay’s January 2024 concert in June, by queueing the night before.
On how the pair intend to survive the rest of the queueing time, she points to a few rocks she arranged in a circle around a Swift album cover, calling it her “manifestation stuff”.
