Taylor Swift’s Era Tour in Australia: The real goal she didn’t get is in Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide
Taylor Swift wowed hundreds of Aussie followers when she introduced her The Eras world tour to Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide.
To see a pop star in these cities, you have to consider the price of trying to buy tickets, pay for flights and accommodation in Sydney and Melbourne.
The real purpose of Swift’s determination to reject the big three cities is directly related to logistics.
Harvey Lister, chairman of ASM Global Asia Pacific, said Swift had originally planned to play Brisbane’s Lang Park Stadium and Adelaide Oval, but as the world tour dates began to coincide, Australia was unfortunately caught up due to geographical logistics. .
Swift’s tour schedule includes a week-long break in each metropolis.

As Australia has only allocated dates for two weeks, only two cities can be included in the itinerary.
Lister defined ABCradioBrisbane: “There was no time to keep jumping from town to town.”
Despite the logistical challenges, the stadium facilities in Brisbane and Adelaide were not difficult.

Interestingly, despite having a much smaller population than Japan, Australia had additional tour dates than Tokyo, a testament to Swift’s reputation in the country.
Swift’s promoters even suggested that they might have back-to-back dates in Australia for a month, though that might not have been sustainable for the duration of the tour.
“So the Australian date window, which was originally supposed to be longer when the tour was also in Brisbane, was sandwiched between other dates in other countries, and Australia was basically sandwiched between Japan and Singapore,” Lister explains.
He reassured followers by recalling the last two times Swift toured Australia, each concert at Lang Park was featured.
“There’s no doubt there’s been huge interest in Swifties across the country and it’s just a shame,” he said.
Another music promoter advised Daily Mail Australia followers to feel comfortable with Swift even crossing Down Under, with many megastars choosing not to include Australia on their tours.
“Just be happy and grateful that she is coming. It is very disrespectful that these petitions and people are complaining. She cannot play in the biggest cities of every country. It is not possible for one artist,” they stated.
The Pennsylvania native will play 5 shows in Australia in February, two in Melbourne and three in Sydney.
The Melbourne opener will be held at the MCG on February 16 and 17.
Swift will then fly to Sydney for three consecutive nights at Accor Stadium on February 23, 24 and 25.

General tickets go on sale Friday June 30 in Sydney starting at 10:00 a.m. local time, and in Melbourne at 14:00.
