Fans are in “swift” mode to get their tickets as soon as possible. Ever since Taylor Swift announced her Eras Tour, Swifites have been strategizing on how to secure their seat on what’s aimed to be the “biggest tour of all time.”
The tour will kick off its extended dates on October 18. Here’s a list of the upcoming concert dates and locations:
- October 18-20: Miami, Hard Rock Stadium
- October 25-27: New Orleans, Caesars Superdome
- November 1-3: Indianapolis, Lucas Oil Stadium
- November 14-16, Nov. 21-23: Toronto, Rogers Centre
Given the hype, it’s going to be a battle of Gladiators to get the ticket. Ticketmaster is a credible medium and largest ticket sales platform for exclusive events, concerts, and important shows. Most artists collaborate with Ticketmaster for ticket distribution and managing sales.
For the Eras Tour: One must register for a verified fan account on Ticketmaster by August 5. By August 8, you will receive your Ticketmaster code, through which you can buy your tickets. You will be assigned a specific time and date between August 9 and 11. The windows for booking the ticket will open 30 minutes before your allotted time.
How Do I Get My Taylor Swift Presale Code?
The registration for creating your verified fan account ended on August 5, 2023. This verification is crucial so that Ticketmaster knows that it’s not a bot or ticket sellers who resell the tickets at much higher prices.
Hence Ticketmaster follows a simple protocol– first, one must create a verified account. You will be assigned a unique code before the booking goes live. You cannot share or transfer this code with other people since Ticketmaster has assigned only your verified account to the code.
Once you get the code, you are qualified for the presale process. Getting a code doesn’t mean that you have secured a ticket.
When Will Ticketmaster Send Taylor Swift Codes
August 8, 2023, is when Ticketmaster will notify you about your code. And also, due to high demand and limited supply, Ticketmaster makes the selection randomly, like a lottery system. If you are selected, you will receive an email that states your unique access code, through which you can buy the ticket during the assigned time frame.
The ticket platform will also send you an email on August 8 to notify you that you are on the waitlist. Either way, you are updated on your sale status.
Remember: you will only receive an email if your account is verified.
If you are on the waitlist, there are still slim chances of securing a seat… don’t lose hope; manifest those tickets!

What Does Ticketmaster Verified Fan Presale Mean?
A verified fan presale is a method to ensure that no bots or ticket resellers are involved in the transaction.
Ticketmaster’s official website also states that the selection is purely random and does not imply the level of the fan. The site says that the probability “is not a measure of how big a fan anybody is. Sometimes there simply aren’t enough tickets for everyone.”
Here are a few tips during the presale process:
- Make sure that you have already filled in your credit card details while booking your ticket. There are high chances that you might lose your seat to the “fastest fingers first.”
- Do not refresh your page in the middle of the transaction, or you might miss your ticket to someone else.
- Make sure you have a solid internet connection.
- You get a 30-minute window before the actual booking, where you are allowed in the virtual room. Prepare all necessary information in that time.
