About this episode

Taylor Swift has broken the internet...again. 

This week tickets to her five Australian shows have been on pre-sale and it was pandemonium with over 800,000 Swifties trying to fulfil their wildest dreams to see the pop star perform live. 

In this episode of The Quicky, we'll take a look at the issues people are running into, what lessons we can learn from this for future gigs and what Taylor Swift has (accidentally) taught us about how ticket sales systems should be improved.
