Taylor Swift is canceling her “Eras Tour” ticket sale to the general public planned for Friday, according to people familiar with the matter.⁠ ⁠ The presale for the pop star’s first tour in five years has seen historic demand, overwhelming ticketing systems and leaving few available seats. Ticketmaster said it received 3.5 billion system requests on its site—four times its previous peak.⁠ ⁠ In a statement, Ticketmaster confirmed that the general sale would be called off. The ticket seller said the cancellation was due to high demand and “insufficient remaining ticket inventory to meet that demand.”⁠ ⁠ Swift’s presale this week broke sales records as millions of fans rushed to snap up tickets despite glitches affecting Ticketmaster’s system and backlash from politicians over the ticket seller’s power.⁠ ⁠ Swift’s 52-date stadium run sold over two million tickets on Tuesday—more than any other artist in a single day, according to the company. Tuesday’s presale was limited to a select group of people who had registered with Ticketmaster, part of an effort to ensure that actual fans, rather than scalpers, got first crack at tickets. ⁠ ⁠ Ticketmaster on Thursday said that even though the presale was only available to people who had been invited to participate, that didn’t prevent others, including bad actors, from attempting to get in. ⁠ ⁠ Fans who didn’t get seats during Ticketmaster’s presale could try to purchase third-party tickets. Those seats have already been marked up. On StubHub, a ticket resale site, seats near Swift’s stage at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey were listed for as much as $76,000 Thursday morning.⁠ ⁠ Read more at the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ Photo: Angela Weiss/AFP/Getty Images
