Merch lines were definitely the worst. I went to the stadium before the gates opened but the outside merch stands had huge lines. So I lined up to get pretty near the front, so when the gates did open i went right to the main inside merch stand and actually got through it quickly. I liked hanging out inside the stadium and just enjoying the environment and checking out all the outfits, because people did put so much work into them and they were fun to see. Good info!
As a former luxury transportation driver for the music industry in the larger USA tours, the merch is sold by a vendor and that vendor has specific inventory that is selected at each tour location. They only have so much merch to sell at that location. While to be realistic, they do have more inventory, but they do not designate that tour location for more supply. If you are lucky enough to work in the industry, we get all merch off all musical artist they you're assigned to...is at 50% off and only available on the last day of that tour location and is sold to us directly after the concert closes the venue. Only stick with official merch and only direct from the concerts or Taylors website!
Love this video. Great advice, and Sassy Rachel comes out on the merch segment!!! Taylor will be my first stadium concert, however not my first outdoor concert. I am the Edinburgh date, I’m traveling from Glasgow, so am planning to park at a park and ride then take the tram in. I’ve taken advice from friends who have stayed in Edinburgh and friends who go to the rugby through there. Be prepared for a 45 minute to 2 hour wait for the tram. Plus there’s special Tram fare coming. I know of folk travelling from Glasgow, ScotRail are bringing their schedule out for that weekend in the next 2 weeks. Also the bus companies have their schedules out already for some of them. I feel like I’m going to have to make a video for Edinburgh I think! For Edinburgh, you can take in a single 500ml bottle of water, only water, as long as it’s unopened. That is Scottish law I think. Phone charger, take a battery bank phone charger.
Thanks Rachel, this video was really helpful. I’m going to the Eras Tour in Edinburgh and I was wondering what type of earplugs would you recommend. I’ve never been to a concert before so I don’t really have any good earplugs. As someone with very sensitive hearing I’ve been Googling what are the best earplugs for concerts and I’ve seen people using the Loop (experience). Would love to know what you would recommend and I love your videos 🤍
Rachel Help! Taylor Swift is evil! Taylor Swift is just pretending to be nice but in reality she's angry with the fans: when I wrote to her that she shouldn't take a photo with raisins, two days later she had raisins on the photo because she wanted to annoy me. The same thing is with screaming I told her not to scream and then she screams around on the eras tour to annoy me again. And even make a new song "FLORIDA!!!" After three calls she wanted to annoy me again. In addition, a lot of people are sure to shout at the new album and even threaten to laugh at them and give the wrong names when it comes to the new album.

Hi! I’ve personally never used earplugs for a concert before but I’ve bought them for the eras tour and I got loop experience
my merch lines were short when i arrived so i mangaged to get the beige shirt:)
Question how did u get tickets bc I can't find tickets anywhere but the us leg is over and my parents won't let me get tickets
Hopefully, Taylor Swift will come back to California in 2 years from now, so I can see her in person
Hopefully she’ll tour The Tortured Poets Department soon
Sounds good 👍
Hopefully, it will have good music 🎶
I am going to check her tortured poets music when they come out by April 2024
Has anyone ever told you that you kind of look like Taylor Swift? :)
That is very kind to say, thank you!
Rachel Help!
