Fans in stampede for Taylor Swift show as last minute tickets are announced
Taylor Swift fans were filmed rushing towards the box office outlets at Sydney’s Accor Stadium as last minute additional tickets to the show were announced over speakers outside the venue in ‘dangerous’ move.
Taylor Swift fans desperate to nab last minute tickets to her show were seen stampeding the venue in a viral TikTok video.
Would-be concert goers were captured on camera as they rushed to the box office at Sydney’s Accor Stadium after last minute tickets to the sold-out show were announced. The clip – filmed on Saturday ahead of Taylor’s second show in Sydney – shows a crowd of fans racing towards the ticket booths as the extra tickets were announced over speakers around the venue.
The hoard of desperate fans was labelled as “dangerous” by stunned users of the social media app while they watched the chaotic scene play out. The user who uploaded the clip captioned their post writing: “When they announce last minute tickets.”

Well, look, we spoke after the Super Bowl, and I asked him, ‘Are you going to take off for Sydney?’ And he seemed keen,” Ed told The Sydney Morning Herald. He said he’d really like to see Sydney and Singapore, but he wasn’t sure because he has commitments. He is at a celebrity charity golf outing today (Tuesday), which, I think, is in Las Vegas.
Taylor flew all the way from Tokyo, Japan, to see Travis and his team win the Super Bowl earlier this month. It was her 13th game watching him up close in the NFL season. Travis also flew to Buenos Aires, Argentina, during his bye week to watch her sing
