So her actual fans who missed out on being able to buy tickets because of scalpers/bots will be able to purchase them. It's a good thing. Suddenly, they are so quiet. 1
holyground13 Posted May 31 Posted May 31 (edited) I think I read that you can sign up via a form without purchasing anything. Still not the best practise I think but there's worse Edited May 31 by holyground13 change

Saintlor Posted May 31 Author Posted May 31 (edited) 2 minutes ago, RideOrDie said: She's doing this in every city, not just one place. 150 tickets to give away for free in every city she does in the UK? That's a lot of tickets. Aren't they selling 60-80K tickets per night? 150 tickets is nothing and would only be a loss of £24,000 per night out of the tens of millions it's likely generating every night. I don't think a giveaway to win the chance to buy tickets is a good thing. Edited May 31 by Saintlor
RideOrDie Posted May 31 Posted May 31 2 minutes ago, Saintlor said: This is because it's the against the law to make people pay for a chance of winning something Regardless, she could easily give these 150 tickets they held back away for free If it was only one city then maybe. But she is doing this in other places as well, I'm sure the one for Edinburgh was done before this. Also who is giving away hundreds of free tickets for free? It's crazy if you expect that from HER out of all people. But this is nice from her to actually give a chance to legit fans to get tickets all over the UK.

That's written in super small fine print which most won't read (and is only added for legal reasons) and I'm sure Taylor Swift can afford a £24,000 loss to give away 150 tickets out of 80,000 for free instead of hosting a "giveaway" to be able to purchase tickets If she's not going to give them away for free… then just don't announce this?

She is doing this all over the UK, not just one city. When you add it all up it's not a cute 24k. I don't see any other rich celebrity give away hundreds of tickets for free, why would she?

She gave away thousands of tickets for her Reputation tour in Dublin back in 2018 so I'm sure she would have no problems giving away 150 tickets for her dedicated fans (who she already sucked dry with her 2327813671 releases anyways) 7 1

She probably didn't come up with this(I really hope) But whoever did this in her team makes her look greedy and narcissistic The problem is "you have to get into a contest to win and the prize is you are able to pay for a ticket" It really looks bad tbh Honestly they are just better off not doing this and still banking.

It's a good thing. the no purchase necessary message has to be put there legally and is obviously not a focal part of the promotion. the vast majority of people wont even notice it 1

Popboi. Posted May 31 Posted May 31 99% of artists do webstore preorder for a UK presale code for tour presale, this is just a variation of that as the tour is near. 3
JO1s Posted May 31 Posted May 31 As much as I don't really care for ha, ya'll are dumb. Lotteries to be able to buy tickets are the norm in Asia. It honestly makes more sense for artists like bey and taylor to do this in the future to prevent scalpers. 1 1
