The eye-watering sum Taylor Swift will earn on the Australian leg of her Eras Tour
The staggering amount Taylor Swift will earn on the Australian leg of her Eras Tour – despite fans being despondent as she misses several major cities
Taylor Swift takes home a serious pay package for her Australian concerts.
The American pop star will travel Down Under in February next year for The Eras Tour.
The 33-year-old will perform seven concerts – and earn $35 million for her efforts, Now Perth reported Sunday.
That equates to $5 million for each concert, after what Frontier Touring called an “unprecedented” demand for tickets, which are now sold out.
Not everyone is happy, with many of the star’s fans angry that she makes so few stops on the tour.

Taylor will reject all but two major cities in Australia and is only scheduled for seven shows in total Melbourne and Sydney, leaving Swifties behind Perth enraged as they pull out thousands to see her.
Perth was not the only city to be rejected, as fans in Brisbane and Adelaide will also miss their idol at home.
Tour sources have revealed that the decision to stay in the southeast likely came from the Bad Blood hitmaker himself, they reported Now Perth on Saturday.
“On big tours like this, the directive would come from the artist,” an insider told the publication.

Taylor is said to have said, “I only have time to do two cities.” I don’t have time to travel across the country.’ It is a guideline that comes from the artist.’
Taylor announced a third Melbourne show at the MCG on February 18 next year and a fourth Sydney concert at Accor Stadium on February 26 as part of The Eras Tour.
She will become the first artist since Madonna to perform three consecutive concerts at the Melbourne Cricket Ground when she takes the stage in February next year, and the first ever to play a fourth consecutive show at Sydney’s Accor Stadium.
The new performances are in addition to the existing concerts in Melbourne on February 16, 17 and 18 and shows in Sydney on February 23, 24, 25 and 26.
