Pop legend Taylor Swift will be bringing her Eras tout to the UK next summer and fans are already thinking about how much they can expect to pay to see her.
The Lavender Haze singer will be performing in London, Liverpool, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Dublin, and just yesterday the global superstar announced that new dates have been added, giving fans more chances to catch a show.
Although ticket sales won't officially begin until next week, eager Swifties are doing anything they can to find ways to be in with a chance of getting their hands on some, including speculating on how much tickets will cost.
During the American leg of her sell-out Eras tour, online ticket sales were depleted in minutes in a frenzy made even more frustrating for fans by the high-profile service failures on the Ticketmaster website.
Those who were lucky enough to get tickets are expected to have paid between $49 (£41) and $449 (£377) each across all US venues.
Most fans, however, were forced to purchase tickets through re-sale vendors at heavily inflated prices, making it hard to ascertain exactly just how deep they had to dig to catch Tay Tay live.

How much will tickets cost for Taylors Swift's UK Eras Tour?
Prices have yet to be officially confirmed for the UK leg of the tour, but one thing is for sure, fans will do whatever it takes to get their hands on them.
The battle for tickets is likely to be incredibly fierce as Ticketmaster has enforced strict rules on the buying process, with registered fans being selected at random for a chance to purchase.
In order to try and secure a ticket ahead of the sale, some UK fans have already gone as far as to book hospitality packages at selected venues paying as much as £750 per person for a Diamond Package at Wembley Stadium.
In Edinburgh, fans sold out hospitality packages, with tickets costing £275, £440 or a whopping £550 just for one ticket, and over at Anfield in Liverpool, fans clambered to buy any one of the five hospitality packages available for £249, £349 or £449 a piece.
Hospitality packages across all venues are now believed to be sold out and despite their high prices, fans appear to have been willing to pay any amount to secure their tickets.
While speculation mounts about how much exactly fans will have to pay, finding out who has been randomly selected to join the Ticketmaster queue in the first place, also remains a hot topic on social media.
