After a tour in the United States that generated billions of dollars in revenue and broke records in terms of crowd size and seismic activity(!), Taylor Swift will soon start concerts in Latin America. According to Pichwork, fans in Argentina have been waiting in line for five months, sleeping in tents outside the stadium where Swift will play three times from November 9 to 11.
“I usually tell dad I’m at the park or visiting a friend.”
Yes, not only are the singer’s fans able to cause seismic activity comparable to an earthquake with a strength of over 2 points on the Richter scale, but they are also very persistent. There have been four tents under River Plate since June, where hundreds of fans sleep in shifts. They each committed to following a rotation schedule to ensure the tents were always occupied. Most of them have already secured tickets to the concert. Their goal is to get as close to the stage as possible when the stadium gates open.
The spreadsheet, created by two organizers and updated by designated administrators, tracks about 60 people staying in each tent, Pitchfork reported. According to the rules set by Swift’s fans, the order of entry into the stadium will depend on how much time one devotes.
Most of them are young women, but they must be over 18 years old. Everyone is obliged to, among others: to spend at least one night shift in tents and commit at least 60 hours a month. “We’ve been in this tent for five months,” says 21-year-old Swiftie (as Taylor Swift fans call themselves). “I usually tell my dad I’m at the park or visiting a friend who lives near the stadium,” adds the girl, who spends time in a tent between her part-time job and her studies. She asked for anonymity to avoid being identified by her father.
Taylor Swift will also play in Poland
Not everyone is happy with the tents that have been standing near the stadium for five months. “People are really upset about us camping for some reason,” one fan, Carmen, told Pitchfork. – Sometimes you lie there and hear someone shouting at two in the morning: ‘Go to work!'” – she added. She spent over 300 hours in the tent.
The Eras tour started in March this year. As part of it, Taylor Swift will play three concerts in Poland – on August 1, 2 and 3 next year. . Those who did not manage to buy tickets for the PGE National Stadium can go to… the cinema. In October, a concert film consisting of recordings of Swift’s three performances in Los Angeles premiered.
