Aussie Taylor Swift fans face their biggest fear coming true as Ticketek makes announcement about tickets for Australian leg of The Eras Tour
Tickets to Taylor Swift‘s The Eras Tour in February next year have officially sold out to the dismay of thousands of fans.
All dates for the pop icon’s, 33, concert sold out within hours after Ticketek opened general sales at 10am on Friday for Sydney and 2pm for Melbourne.
The site worked overtime with thousands of Aussie Swifties filling up the waiting room to get a second shot at scoring their ticket, only to be let down hours later.
Within two hours of Sydney’s second round tickets going on sale, Ticketek announced on Twitter that all A-G reserve allocations had been ‘exhausted’.
Only ‘VIP and hotel + ticket packages’ remain for all Sydney shows after Frontier members dominated pre-sale tickets on Wednesday.

The news didn’t get any better for Melbourne later in the day, with A-G reserves allocations also being ‘exhausted’ within two hours.
‘VIP and hotel + ticket packages’ for the Sunday show are the only tickets remaining for Melbournites.
After Wednesday’s wild pre-sale for Taylor’s Australian tour took the country by storm, an extra date in Sydney and Melbourne were added due to high demand.
However, the hunt for a seat has become so drastic, frantic fans took to social media on Friday to tweet Ticketek directly and beg for seats to one of the shows.

‘This is becoming an obsession. I feel like a stalker!’ wrote one fan.
‘I’m going to start playing each of Taylor Swifts albums and see how long it takes,’ wrote another.
‘Guys I’m at work serving customers please make sure I get tickets straight away please I’m begging you,’ pleaded another.
Taylor announced a third Melbourne show at the MCG on February 18 next year and a fourth Sydney concert at Accor Stadium on February 26 as part of The Eras Tour.
The star will become the first artist since Madonna to perform three consecutive concerts at the Melbourne Cricket Ground when she takes the stage in February next year, and the first ever to play a fourth straight show at Sydney’s Accor Stadium.
The new gigs are in addition to the existing Melbourne concerts on February 16 and 17 and Sydney shows on February 23, 24, 25.
