As the race to secure tickets for Taylor Swift’s concerts in Singapore intensifies, some fans have resorted to queueing at Singapore Post (SingPost) outlets ahead of the general ticketing sale on Friday (7 July).
Today (6 July), SingPost issued an advisory warning that the chances of securing tickets for those beyond 30th in line are “very low”.
SingPost also reminded fans that only those with valid access codes will be allowed to join the queue. Even so, the chances of these fans securing tickets aren’t certain.

Considering the overwhelming demand and past experiences with “popular concert ticket sales”, SingPost told customers that the chances of purchasing tickets are “very low” if they’re beyond the 30th person in line.
For those already queuing or planning to join the line, SingPost reminded that only fans with with valid access codes may do so.
Even then, they may not necessarily be able to score tickets.
Likely anticipating large crowds for the general sale, SingPost additionally urged customers to “maintain an orderly queue”. Should they require any assistance, they can reach out to staff at the respective outlets.
SingPost’s advisory comes after ‘Swifties’ were seen queueing outside SingPost outlets from Wednesday (5 July) — about 48 hours before general ticketing sales commence.
The SingPost outlet at Sengkang, in particular, had 20 people in line by about 11am.
