Taylor Swift fans left delighted after Ticketmaster announces huge ticket update for UK leg of Eras tour
Ticketmaster has announced a huge ticket u-turn for fans with tickets for Taylor Swift‘s UK Eras tour dates.
The global superstar, 34, will be touring some of Britain’s biggest cities,
including Liverpool, Manchester London, Cardiff and Edinburgh,
and will also be travelling to Dublin when the UK and Ireland leg of Eras begins in June.
After a rush from mega fans to get tickets, some were left disappointed by the strict rules implemented by the ticket-selling giant.
The shows were originally meant to be a ‘lead booker’ event, which means the cardholder who purchased the tickets must attend the event in person.

This meant that anyone who has purchased tickets as gifts would need to also go along to the concert, otherwise the other ticket holders would risk not being able to get in.

However, this afternoon, Ticketmaster has put Taylor lovers out of their misery, by going back on their regulations.
The company sent an email out confirming that the ‘lead booker’ policy was no longer valid.
Ticketmaster said: ‘The ‘lead booker’ policy has been removed, meaning that the person whose name is on the Ticketmaster account used to purchase tickets is no longer required to attend the event.
‘All other terms and conditions remain unchanged. We hope you enjoy the show!’
