How and when to get tickets?

Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour fan registration for general on-sale: From Jun. 23 at 12pm to Jun. 28 at 12pm

Register here.

UOB card members presale: From Jul. 5 at 12pm to Jul. 7 at 9am

UOB reserved tickets on-sale: From Jul. 7, 12pm

You will require a valid UOB card to join these sales.

No code is required.

Links to purchase the reserved tickets will be available on UOB Singapore's Facebook page, UOB Cards Facebook page and @UOBgroup on Instagram.

Pro-tip: Make sure to sign up and sign into your Ticketmaster account about an hour before tickets go on sale.

General on-sale: From Jul. 7 at 12pm

• Online via ticketmaster.sg
• Hotline: +65 3158 8588
• All SingPost outlets

The chances of getting tickets from SingPost outlets, however, is said to be "very low" beyond the 30th position in the queue.

What you can do before tickets go on sale

Sign up for a UOB card, if you can

The fastest and arguably least hassle way to get your hands on concert tickets is to be a UOB card member.

UOB card members get earlier access to the sale on Jul. 5 and are not required to do the fan registration.

According to UOB, eligible card members include:

• UOB credit and debit cards issued in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand or Vietnam
• Citi-branded credit and debit cards issued in Malaysia, Thailand or Vietnam

Payment for these tickets must be made with the above-mentioned eligible cards.

The presale privilege is only for UOB card members from Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam.

Register as a Taylor Swift fan

Fans are required to register their interest for the general on-sale tickets from Jun. 23 to Jun. 28.

However, fan registration does not guarantee that you will be successful in purchasing a ticket during the general sale.

According to the Ticketmaster website, selected registered fans will receive an email on July 5 with more information on how to access on-sale tickets on general sales.

This includes a unique access code that will only allow fans to purchase a maximum of four tickets per code.

So really, may the odds be ever in your favour.

If presale and general sale doesn't work...

In the unfortunate event that you do all these and yet, tragically, can't get your hands on the tickets, there is still a glimmer of hope.

Travel and leisure-commerce platform Klook and five-star hotel resort Marina Bay Sands are listed as the concert's official partners.

So it shouldn't come as a surprise that they will have their own Taylor Swift concert packages.

Marina Bay Sands packages

A press release from Marina Bay Sands mentioned that they will have exclusive packages that are said to combine the "concert experience with exclusive hospitality" at the integrated resort.

We will update this article with more details once it's available.

Klook bundles

A portion of the concert tickets will be bundled with hotel rooms offered by Klook.

Bundle prices start from S$542 for a pair of tickets and a night's stay at a four-star hotel:

Quick math time:

Cat 6 tickets cost S$114 each — S$108 plus the S$6 booking fee — so a pair costs S$228.

Since cheapest package costs S$542, it means you'll be paying about S$314 for the four-star hotel room.

Good luck, Swifties.
