Taylor Swift reveals 'Reputation' tour dates

Taylor Swift's sixth studio album may just be out for only a couple of days, but it has already managed to make it to Billboard's top 200. Now, the popular singer has again dropped a huge bomb for her fans. On Nov. 13, Swift announced her upcoming tour dates for "Reputation."

Taylor Swift's "Reputation" tour will take place in the U.S. next year, starting on May 8 and ending on Oct. 6. The singer will travel to over 20 cities in the U.S. to promote her newest album, starting off at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

Until July, Swift will be traveling in the West Coast before heading to the East. On Oct. 6, she will end her tour in the South Coast, performing last at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Tickets for the upcoming concerts will go on sale to the general public starting on Dec. 13, but pre-sale tickets can be purchased earlier from Dec. 5 to Dec. 8. However, to the most eager fans, Swift has offered a sweet deal: by partnering with Ticketmaster's Verified Fan experience, select fans may get their hands on early access tickets, so long as they participate in a few "boost activities."

Apparently, Swift is going to be hands-on in the said program, so that the coveted tickets may only go those who are really intent on going to the concert and to prevent anyone from selling them. The activities mentioned in the program vary, but according to the Ticketmaster website:

"Taylor Swift is committed to getting tickets into the hands of fans... NOT scalpers or bots. So she's collaborating with Ticketmaster #verifiedfan to create an exclusive program to help YOU get the best access to tickets, in a really fun way."

"Once you register, improve your place in line by participating in boost activities until initial registration closes on Nov 28."

Ticket prices are yet to be revealed, but rumors tout that for verified fans, they can get a hold of the tickets at their preferred price range from $50 to $350-plus.
