How many seats are there for Taylor Swift’s concerts at National Stadium? SG influencer gets JC maths tutor to calculate
Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour tickets went on pre-sale today, and the reception, as expected, was overwhelming to say the least. In fact, it's been dubbed 'The Great War (UOB pre-sale)' online.
The concert is set to be held for six nights next year at the National Stadium, which can house a crowd of 55K at full capacity.
But just how many seats are up for purchase during Tay Tay's tour here?
Yesterday (Jul 4), local influencer Nicole Liel answered that question with the help of her JC Maths tutor on TikTok.
“I was so desperate, I went to find my JC maths tuition teacher to help me find out how many seats there will be for the Taylor Swift concert,” laughed Nicole at the start of her vid.
Pointing out highlighted areas on a printed seating map of the National Stadium, her tutor explained that while some areas were reserved for the audience, they had to take into account the sections of the venue that would not be “open” during the concert.
Those sections in this case,were the seats that did not appear in the concert’s seating map.
After calculating the number of seats in the parts that are available for concert-goers to buy, Nicole's tutor came up with a rough estimate of 32,682 seats.
Then came more numbers which included the addition of the floor seats which they calculated by parts in relation to the other seats.
They eventually came to a grand total of 44,639 seats available per night.
The number of seats multiplied by the six nights Taylor will be performing in Singapore means that some 267,834 lucky Swifties will get their chance to see the singer live.
Slay, indeed
But are their calculations really accurate?
8days.sg reached out to concert organiser AEG Presents but did not recieve a response as of press time.
In any case, there should be still a ton of tickets available when general sales go live on Fri (Jul 7), so good luck!
