Sabrina Carpenter Ticket Frenzy: Fans Struggle to Secure Seats for "Short n' Sweet" Tour
Sabrina Carpenter's "Short n' Sweet" 2025 tour has ignited a ticketing frenzy, with fans claiming securing tickets is even more difficult than for Taylor Swift's "Eras" Tour.
The 25-year-old singer, whose popularity has skyrocketed with hits like "Expresso" and "Please Please Please," along with her burgeoning romance with actor Barry Keoghan, has a dedicated fanbase eager to see her live. However, the presale for her upcoming tour turned into a chaotic experience, with Ticketmaster facing a website crash and fans being thrown back in the queue.
Frustrated fans took to social media, expressing their anger and bewilderment. "How is trying to get Sabrina Carpenter tickets more stressful than getting tickets to the Eras tour?" one user asked, highlighting the similarities with the notorious ticketing fiasco for Swift's tour. Another shared, "Miss Taylor Swift I blame you for the Sabrina Carpenter presale carnage because if youâd have just brought her to Europe with you we wouldnât be fighting for our lives to see her."
The issues encountered by fans seem to stem from the sheer demand. While Taylor Swift's "Eras" Tour is nearing its end, Carpenter's growing popularity has created a surge in ticket requests. Fans who missed out on seeing Swift are now looking to Carpenter, making the competition for tickets fierce.
Carpenter, who opened for Swift's "Eras" Tour in Latin America, Australia, and Asia between August 2023 and March 2024, has undoubtedly learned from the ticketing woes of her fellow artist. However, this hasn't stopped the chaos that unfolded during the presale.
Despite the frustrating experience, Carpenter's fans remain excited for the tour, which kicks off on March 3rd in Dublin. The tour will then travel to Birmingham, London, Glasgow, Manchester, Paris, Berlin, Brussels, and Amsterdam, culminating in a final show on March 23rd.
Carpenter will be performing her biggest hits, including "Please Please Please," "Nonsense," and "Feather," to enthusiastic crowds. She has also announced that Rachel Chinouriri will be her supporting act.
The "Short n' Sweet" tour follows the announcement of Carpenter's upcoming album of the same name, set for release on August 23rd. The singer described the album as "quite special" and expressed her hope that her fans will find it equally special.
The album will feature 12 tracks and includes previously released singles like "Expresso" and "Please Please Please." The highly anticipated release, combined with the upcoming tour, promises to be a busy and exciting time for Carpenter and her dedicated fanbase.
