In honor of Taylor Swift's release of Speak Now (Taylor's Version), Filipino fans made sure to back the singer... by helping sell out her Singapore shows in just one day.
Klook has announced that the Klook Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour Singapore Experience Packages completely sold out just 19 hours after the packages went live. And to no one's surprise, the top country booking Swift packages on Klook was the Philippines, beating out the state nation hosting the Southeast Asian show. After the Philippines, the next top customer origin countries were Singapore, Indonesia, China, and Malaysia.

"We expected immense demand but safe to say that was an understatement with more than 600,000 fans from across the region eagerly waiting in line and willing to spend more than SG$1,700 on our Klook Experience Packages," said Sarah Wan, General Manager, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore, Klook. "We are thankful for the patience and support from Swifties around the region and we can't wait to help them discover and enjoy the most unforgettable experiences when they visit Singapore in March 2024."
Klook, which is an official partner of The Eras Tour Singapore, offered various Experience Packages that bundled concert tickets and hotel stays. The packages encompassed over 40 hotels, distributed across 12 ticket categories, ranging from SG $542 (around P22,294) for the 4-star hotel stays to SG $4,977 (around P204,719) for the 5-star hotel stays.
Each package came with two tickets and a one-night stay at a selected Singapore hotel. The most affordable package, "Cat 1," sold out within two hours, says Klook, namely the InterContinental with Cat 1 tickets package and Crowne Plaza Changi with Cat 1 tickets package. The Grand Copthorne Waterfront with Cat 2 tickets also sold out quickly.

It's pretty safe to say that Taylor Swift single-handedly just secured Singapore's 2024 tourism numbers. The Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour will take place at Singapore's National Stadium for six nights: March 2, 3 4, 7, 8, and 9.
For the Swift fans who didn't secure tickets to the Singapore show, tough luck. But there's still hope: The Japan shows will begin its ticket lottery draw on July 11.
