Edinburgh Taylor Swift Murrayfield tickets on resale for nearly double the price

Megastar Taylor Swift is bringing her Eras Tour to the UK next summer and fans have the chance to secure tickets for the three Edinburgh Murrayfield dates on Monday.

Presale tickets went live for the June 7 show in Edinburgh at 11am for those lucky fans who secured an advance code with tickets being split between two platforms – Ticketmaster and AXS.

Due to high demand to see the star, tickets are already being resold on exchange site Viagogo - many at prtices dwarfing their original fee.

Seats based in the West Upper Tier are being re-sold for prices ranging from £352 to £472 - where original prices were between £58.65 to £194.75.

Viagogo is also selling a VIP ticket for the East Lower Tier of the stadium for £1,180 - with the most expensive VIP package ‘It’s Been a Long Time Coming Package’ originally priced at £662.40.

Currently, there are no general admission floor tickets being resold on Viagogo for the first Murrayfield date. Fans are unsurprisingly unhappy with tickets being re-sold.

Some took to Twitter to voice their disapproval. One tweet reads: “Already being sold by touts on Viagogo for £500+ so the AXS anti-tout system clearly doesn’t work.”

Another fan wrote: “Any explanation as to Viagago reselling Eras Tour at extortionate prices”.

With the waiting room set to be opened for ticket buyers at 10.30, some fans were left worried that the tickets would sell out. Some fans were concerned they wouldn't make it out of the waiting room at all.

Fans who purchased an item from the Midnights collection on the artist’s official website in October were contacted via email with their presale code and on-sale times for their preferred city.

The next set of presale tickets for the second Murrayfield date on June 8 goes on sale at 1pm on Monday.
