Genius Taylor Swift fan shares tip to check your exact wait time in Ticketmaster queue

A genius Taylor Swift fan has shared a clever tip to check your exact wait time in Ticketmaster's queue. Millions of Swifties are hoping to grab a ticket for the star's The Eras UK and European tour next week.

The Blank Space singer is bringing her tour to multiple UK stadiums including Cardiff, London and Liverpool next June. Some fans have registered for several venues and it's very likely each gig will face lengthy waits.

In order to have the best shot at getting tickets, fans will have already registered Taylor's Ticketmaster site in advance before June 2. Today July 5, you’ll be contacted by Ticketmaster letting you know whether you’ve received an “on-sale code” or placed on a waiting list.

People will then be able to buy tickets from Monday, July 10 as part of the pre-sale if they bought the album Midnights last year. In anticipation of the ticket sales next week, many US fans have been sharing their successes on social media.

Sonia Gogan posted on her TikTok page how she found out her exact wait time while in the queue.

She said: "You're going to right click on your computer and click inspect and then it's going to pop up this side tab.

"Then you're gonna go to 'network' and then search the word 'status' and you have to click on 'preview', 'ticket', and it says my number and my expected wait time."

Sonia also explains to fans that the right-click tool will not work for those buying tickets on their phones, only via a desktop computer. But sometimes it might be best to not know. One fan wrote: "Thank you there are 15,080 people ahead of me."

Another said: "So cool thank you!!! 9,464 haha", while a third penned: "219k in front of me".

Pre-sale will begin on Monday, July 10 at 10am for London shows, followed by Edinburgh and Dublin at 10am on Tuesday and Liverpool and Cardiff on Wednesday, also at 10am.

Here are the UK tour dates for Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour 2024:
