More Taylor Swift tickets for Australian Eras tour to be released
Frontier Touring have announced more Taylor Swift tickets are set to go on sale tomorrow for fans that failed to nab a seat at the Australian leg of her Eras Tour earlier this year.
In news set to thrill Swifties, tickets are set to go for sale from $79.90 for both her Sydney and Melbourne shows after unprecedented demand – but there is a catch.
Tickets will go on sale through the Ticketek website, but it's important to note the view is ''partially-obstructed".

Tickets go on sale for all Sydney shows at 10am AEDT and for Swift's Melbourne shows at 4pm AEDT.
Swift's tour is set to begin in Australia on February 16, and she will first play three shows at the Melbourne Cricket Ground – the largest crowd she's ever performed for in Australia before – and then four shows at Sydney's Accor Stadium.
Sabrina Carpenter is set to be the special guest performer on the tour.

"News like this never goes out of style! Excited to let you know that there's another opportunity to secure tickets to Taylor Swift," Frontier Touring wrote on Instagram this morning.
It comes after plenty of Aussie Swifties were left heartbroken in June when tickets to the Eras Tour Down Under completely sold out in a matter of hours.
More than four million people were reportedly in the virtual queue to nab less than 700,000 tickets and half a billion bots were kicked out of the queue by Ticketek.

Even with two pre-sales, a general sale, and added tour dates, millions of Australian Swift fans missed out on a chance to attend one of Swift's concerts.
Some people reportedly tried to use service sites like Airtasker to pay others to help them secure tickets.
Some even lined up in Penrith, NSW at the Ticketek office in a bid to secure tickets, which they described as "ironic" as was ''easier than buying them online''.
It was previously reported devoted fans have another chance to get their hands on Swift tickets through Ticketek Marketplace.

Ticketek Marketplace is an official reselling platform that connects the seller and buyer – and claims to offer protection for both.
The website states that resale tickets are capped 10 per cent above face value, which helps prevent ticket scalping or sales at ridiculous amounts.
General tickets for the Eras Tour ranged from $79 to $379, although some VIP packages ranged from $349 to $1249.
Given the Bad Blood singer is only performing in two cities, hoards of Swifties have already set their sights on the next task – securing hotels and flights to get them there.

The surge in demand (More than 9400 per cent for some properties!) has seen a host of hotels already fully booked, and flights selling fast. Read more about the huge uptick in demand at 9Honey Travel.
The issue of getting tickets has made one thing abundantly clear: Aussies love Taylor Swift. And, as a resurfaced interview from 2014 proves, that love is reciprocal.
Nova dug up an interview it did with the pop icon when she was Down Under promoting her 1989 album, and in it, she declared Australia one of her "favourite places to be".
"There's such amazing crowds and such amazing fans that I just want to thank them for making this a place that I come, and I feel very at ease here, very at home, because I feel like they understand what I'm trying to do," she told the radio station.
In the United States, a number of stars and even Swift's celebrity friends have attended her concerts, including the likes of Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid and Laura Dern.
Swift, known for hits including Lover and Love Story, is playing 50 dates on her United States tour and 50 dates internationally.
Best of Luck, Swifties!
