Get waitlisted for Taylor Swift tickets? Here's what you need to know

Tickets for Taylor Swift's second leg of the North American Eras Tour go on sale Aug. 11. However, many people are wondering if they will get tickets after receiving a waitlist notification from Ticketmaster.Fans who wanted to attend shows in Miami, New Orleans, Indianapolis or Toronto during the 2024 leg were able to register for a possible presale code by Aug. 3 before tickets go on sale on Aug. 9 and Aug. 10.On Aug. 8, many fans were disappointed to see they did not receive a presale code and were instead put on the waitlist.What does that mean for waitlisted fans?Those who are on the waitlist will have the chance to purchase tickets after everyone who has a presale code has their chance.However, Ticketmaster said that "due to the high demand, we expect all tickets to be purchased during the Verified Fan Onsale." This comes after last year's Ticketmaster debacle for the first leg of the Eras Tour where many fans were left waiting in the virtual queue for hours and were unable to purchase tickets.This new method Ticketmaster is presenting will hopefully prevent bots from buying tickets that will be later resold at double or triple the price of a regular ticket.
