Ticketmaster faced the wrath of furious Taylor Swift fans on Thursday after an apparent technical glitch prevented them from buying tickets, resulting in hundreds of empty seats at Wembley Stadium.
The pop superstar is back in London for five more UK shows as her mammoth The Eras would tour finally reaches the finish line, some 15-months after it launched at State Park Stadium in Arizona.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, as Swift, 34, returned to Wembley on August 15, fans revealed alarmingly large blocks of empty seats that would ordinarily be filled by devoted Swifties.
And concert vendor Ticketmaster found themselves blamed for the apparent fiasco after a technical error resulted in fans not receiving the requisite code needed to purchase tickets.
Others claimed they were sent invalid codes that also prevented them from buying highly desired tickets for what will be the final UK shows of Swift’s current tour.

Sharing a photo of the empty seats on social media, one disgruntled attendee wrote: ’empty seats cause Ticketmaster locked tickets with codes.’
Posting a similar photo, a second added: ‘not all these empty seats bc nobody had a code to buy tickets. this is so painful.’ [sic]
Pictures taken later in the evening revealed a notably fuller Wembley, with X users sensibly claiming the earlier pictures were taken before everyone had taken to their seats.
