Ticketmaster is canceling the upcoming public sale of Taylor Swift tickets following the presale debacle earlier this week. Ticketmaster said it canceled the sale “due to extraordinarily high demands on ticketing systems and insufficient remaining ticket inventory to meet that demand” in a tweet Thursday afternoon.
The fallout was so bad that Ticketmaster had to postpone presale for shows in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Santa Clara and Seattle until later in the day. The Capital One pre-sale, which was supposed to go live on Tuesday, was postponed for an entire day.
Swift hasn’t toured since 2018 and the planned Lover Fest tour has been canceled due to the pandemic, so fans who want to see Swift perform some of her newer albums live have been waiting for a while. Ticketmaster has not elaborated on whether or when the public sale of tickets could take place in the future.
