Taylor Swift has released a batch of last-minute $16 concert tickets for her final three Eras Tour shows in Vancouver, British Columbia next month. But speculators have snapped them up and put them on the resale market for up to $1,000 – if not more.
It truly is the end of an era: The Eras Tour finally wraps up three shows at Vancouver’s BC Place on December 6-8, with support from Gracie Abrams. Fans are eagerly awaiting these final days, which mark the end of Swift’s global record-breaking journey.
But the scalpers’ woes strike again, even as Swift tries to appease ticketless fans by offering “no-view” seats — literally, obstructed views stage resistance. Fans who tried unsuccessfully to secure them took to social media to express their displeasure.
A fan on resold for over $700.” Daily mail then reported. Just one of many posts this week shows Swifties finding “no-show” $16 tickets for nearly a thousand dollars or more.
Another commented: “Glad that more people can get tickets just for posting them immediately for $2500.” “I was 43rd in line when tickets sold out.”
However, another disappointed fan added more pointedly, “F**k whoever bought $15 Taylor Swift backstage tickets for Vancouver and is now reselling them for cost over a thousand dollars, I hope you choke up.”

Despite the controversy surrounding ticket sales, the excitement for Swift’s final performance was unparalleled. Fans lucky enough to attend shared their plans to enjoy the experience, simply to be a part of the historic event.
