“Taylor Swift’s concert tickets” fell to $75 after she endorsed Kamala Harris

False

No, Taylor Swift tickets aren’t $75. That’s a hoax.

If your time is short

  • Ticket prices for Taylor Swift’s remaining Eras Tour dates are more than $800, with many in the $1,000-plus range. 

  • The post links to a satire website. 

See the sources for this fact-check

Should you drop everything now and buy Eras Tour tickets because they’re only $75? Sadly, no.

“Taylor Swift’s concert ticket prices went from being worth thousands to just over $75 since her ‘big endorsement’” read an Oct. 4 Facebook post. In a pinned comment, the user linked to an article with the headline, “‘I wish I could take it back’ Taylor Swift regrets endorsing Harris and Walz.”

The post was flagged as part of Meta’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Meta, which owns Facebook, Instagram and Threads.)

Although many Swifties would be thrilled to hear about cheap Eras Tour tickets, this claim is wrong. 

Tickets for Taylor Swift’s remaining tour dates in the U.S. and Canada are sold out, and tickets on resale markets such as StubHub, SeatGeek, and Vivid Seats are mostly priced at more than $1,000 each . As of Oct. 8, the cheapest ticket we could find was priced in the $800 range. 

The article the post links to was published by the Dunning-Kruger Times, a notorious satire website. “We applaud your efforts in hoping and praying this was true,” the article said. “It’s not.” 

PolitiFact has seen a surge of claims about Swift following her Sept. 10 endorsement of the Harris-Walz presidential ticket.

Social media users have fabricated claims that she faced mounting backlash that forced her to cancel tour dates (False), get banned from NFL games (False), experience plummeting concert attendance (False), lose a Coca-Cola brand deal (False), and forfeit millions of followers (also False).

The claim that Swift’s concert ticket prices suddenly dropped to $75 following her endorsement of Harris is also rated False.
