This Thursday (October 26th) Tickets for Fun has resumed sales of singer Taylor Swift’s shows in Brazil. In virtually all sectors of both cities, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, full tickets are available from R$480 (+fee). There is currently no information about the origin of the tickets.
The shows will take place in November this year. With 3 dates in each state: Rio de Janeiro on November 17th, 18th and 19th at Nilton Santos Stadium; São Paulo on November 24th, 25th and 26th at Allianz Parque.
Tickets went on sale in June this year and sold out within 37 minutes. Due to popular demand, additional dates have been announced. However, numerous fans were unable to gain access to the show. And today there was another opportunity to experience the experience that the singer promises.
The tour “The Eras Tour” is the largest in the artist’s career. Their entire repertoire of more than ten albums will be part of the setlist. The show lasts 3 hours and 13 minutes and includes a total of 44 songs.
Taylor Swift Law
The speed at which the tickets were sold outraged the artist’s fans, who protested on social media. Minutes after the sales platform announced that the shows were sold out, scalpers began offering tickets at much higher prices on unofficial websites. The “Swifties,” as the singer’s fans were called at the time, filed a complaint with Procon. The disarray led to proposed legislation dubbed the “Taylor Swift Act.”
The practice of illegal ticket sales, known in Brazilian legislation as “Cambismo”, is considered a criminal offense under the General Sports Code (Law 14,597/23) only in the context of sporting events when the sale of sports tickets is at a higher price than that indicated on the ticket The specified price is punishable by a prison sentence of one to two years.
However, there is still no specific legislation for shows and other events. The lack of regulation, which became apparent after the sale of the North American artist’s shows, led parliamentarians to propose bills that would classify scalping as a criminal offense at entertainment events.
