Taylor Swift fans had all their hopes and dreams come true on Tuesday when ticket sales for the n leg of her Eras Tour opened back up – but there’s a catch.
Frontier Touring announced the ‘limited tickets’, which have now gone on sale for the popstar’s Melbourne and Sydney shows, will have a ‘restricted’ view of the stage.
Just days ahead of her first show at Victoria’s MCG on Friday, Swifties can drop $65.90 for seats with the chance they may never even see the stage.
‘Anticipation is at fever pitch as prepares for the start of Taylor Swift The Eras Tour,’ said a frontier spokesperson in their press release.
‘With the show setup now underway, it has been confirmed that limited tickets, including restricted view tickets at $65.90, can be released for sale.’

These coveted tickets will go on sale at 2pm AEDT for all Melbourne concerts and 4pm AEDT for all Sydney concerts.
Despite the less than ideal seating, Taylor Swift, 34, fanatics proved in November they were willing to buy any ticket to get close to their idol.

A limited quantity of tickets became available at 10 am AEDT, and drew what is speculated to be millions of eager fans vying for fewer than 100,000 ‘partially-obstructed’ view seats at the time.
By 10:25 am AEDT, only single seats were available, and at 11:01 am, it was announced that the February 24 show in Sydney had sold out, followed by the February 23 show minutes later.
By 11:22 am, all tickets were reported to be sold out. Limited tickets for ‘partially-obstructed view’ seats for Taylor’s Melbourne shows went on sale at 4 pm AEDT and were sold out within the hour.
