Tickets to see Taylor Swift in her first UK tour in six years are set to be in huge demand when they go on sale next month.
The singer, who has sold more than 200 million records, is bringing her current Eras Tour over to the UK and Europe in 2024 for the first time with dates in London, Edinburgh, Cardiff, and Dublin.
Whilst Mancunians were keen to express their upset at the star’s decision to miss out Manchester altogether, she will be playing two huge nights not too far from home at Liverpool’s Anfield Stadium on June 14 and 15 next year.

Tickets for the shows have not yet gone on sale but eagle-eyed fans believe they have figured out how much they could be when they are available to purchase.
By estimating how much tickets have sold for in the USA, where the show is currently being held, and looking at similar shows here in the UK, fans have come up with a map they believe will closely reflect the pricing of the show in Liverpool. Although, of course, it is worth noting that it is highly speculative.
Posted on the Swifters 2.0 fan group on Facebook, which boasts more than 79,000 followers, the map suggests prices could start at around £49 for 'side view' seats towards the back of the stage.
Some side view seats - you’d hope presumably because they would have a better view - are also expected to be on sale for around the £75 mark. The better seats in the house could be going for anywhere between £95 - £160.
Those looking to stand at the show could be looking at around £95 a ticket. Those wanting to get up as close to the stage as possible with golden circle tickets might need to shell out for £150 for the opportunity, although it feels like these in-demand tickets will realistically go on sale for much more than that.
Fans commented on the map to suggest demand for the tickets will be incredibly high. One said: “Good luck everyone!”. Another wrote: “we need to see where is best for the kids”.
Another said: “Let’s go here to see her!”, while one other fan said: “Sounds promising.”
While there is no way of really knowing how much UK ticket prices will be until the moment they go on sale, it's a nice idea of what fans could be looking to pay. In America, tickets for shows from around $289 (£227) before rising to as much as $1778 (£1398), so tickets are certainly expected to be higher than suggested in the fan-made map.
As per the name of the show, the Eras Tour will span all of Taylor’s albums from her 2006 self-titled debut to her recent album Midnights, which features the hits Karma and Anti-Hero.
The current run in America has seen shows last as long as four hours, with special ‘surprise’ tracks performed each night.
Pre-sale tickets for registered fans will go on sale between July 10-12. General tickets for Taylor's UK tour will go on sale between July 13-20. Tickets for the two Anfield Stadium shows will on sale at Thursday, 20 July, 2pm. Details on tickets can be found here.
Show promoter AEG has been approached by the M.E.N for more information on ticket prices.
