Taylor Swift fans barely contain their excitement as tickets for pop star’s UK tour go on sale

Panicking Taylor Swift fans reveal how they’re struggling to buy tickets to the singer’s UK shows while others scream for excitement after managing to snag seats.

Presale tickets to the singer’s UK and European tour went on sale at 11am today to select fans who pre-ordered her Midnights album.

Some Swifties have taken to Twitter to detail their Bad Blood with Ticketmaster after technical glitches seemingly cost them tickets.

Fans shared how they were ‘struggling to join’ or ‘kicked out’ of the online queue. Some alleged the ticket selling platform thought they were a bot, saying they were ‘not eligible’ to buy seats despite having an access code.

But those who managed to secure tickets have taken to Twitter how they are ‘screaming’ and ‘crying’ with excitement after the ‘more stressful hour of my life’. 

Swifties who did not get tickets during the presale today may have a chance to snag tickets during the general sale. 

Last year, when fans tried to secure tickets to the US leg of the Eras tour, many were brokenhearted after the so-called Ticketmaster queuegate left thousands of Swifties without tickets.

A lucky number of Swifties were given presale access last week, allowing them to queue for tickets this morning.

Fans were limited to purchasing four tickets per transaction and can only buy tickets in the city they have received an access code for.

All tickets are being sold on a first-come first-served basis.

Those who managed to successfully buy tickets this morning were celebrating after winning the Great War against Ticketmaster.

One fan penned: ‘I SURVIVED THE GREAT WAR IM SEEING TAYLOR SWIFT ON LONDON OPENING NIGHT!’

‘I SURVIVED THE GREAT WAR I’M SEEING TAYLOR SWIFT IN EDINBURGH NEXT YEAR I AM OVER THE MOON!!!’ added another.

‘After the #Lover tour being cancelled it feels so surreal that I now have tickets to see next year in London with friends who love her as much as I do,’ wrote one fan who managed to secure a VIP package to the show.

Another tweeted: ‘Oh my actual god… we done it.’ 

‘I have so, so many husband points now,’ added another who seemingly purchased tickets for his wife. 

But despite having presale access, several Swifties were met with the Ticketmaster technical difficulties that her US-based fans knew All Too Well. 

‘Ticketmaster chucking me out as soon as I was about to pay has really pissed over my cornflakes,’ one wrote. 

‘I was first in the queue for Taylor Swift tickets and Ticketmaster kicked me out of the queue for literally no reason. There goes my chance at tickets,’ added another. 

Some users have already claimed to be victims of technical difficulties

General sale Taylor’s UK shows will kick off next week. Tickets will only be available from Ticketmaster and AXS and can only be purchased with an access code.

Ticketmaster has not specified a particular time the access code emails will be sent, only that it will be by July 14 in a staggered system to make sure the site doesn’t get overwhelmed.

Fans had to register by June 22 to try and secure access to the general sale.

Experts have warned fans not to accept offers of tickets outside the official routes of emails sent by sellers Ticketmaster and AXS.

Fans are urged to remain alert to fraudsters because they are a ‘highly attractive target for criminals’ due to the ‘phenomenal demand’ for her Eras Tour tickets.

Criminals bank on the popularity of tickets and establish their own fake versions and fake ticket sale sites in order to dupe consumers and make money. 

Last week Taylor, 33, announced 14 new tour dates in Europe and the UK in addition to the concerts she had already had lined up in Dublin, Liverpool, London, Glasgow and Cardiff.
