Taylor Swift‘s The Eras Tour is heading to Argentina! After releasing the Eras Tour movie in theaters last week, and finishing up shows in Mexico City last month, Swift will resume the Latin American leg of her heavily anticipated tour in Argentina next month (and her new flame, Travis Kelce, might be paying her a visit).
Apart from South America, Swift’s international run will make stops in Asia and Australia and will extend into August 2024.
The first show will be held at El Monumental Stadium in Buenos Aries, Argentina, on Nov. 9.
The “Anti-Hero” singer will return to the States for another round of shows in the U.S. and Canada, including New Orleans, Toronto and Miami, beginning in fall 2024. Swifties got a chance to score presale tickets through Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan program in early August.
The Eras Tour, Swift’s first tour in five years, was announced last November. Presale tickets to the tour went on sale via Ticketsmarter that month.
For the first round of the tour, Swift partnered with Capital One on exclusive tickets available for Capital One cardholders. As can be expected, passes to see Swift live remain one of the hottest concert tickets on the market, so we’re breaking down what you need to know so you can secure a seat.
See below for information on how to get last-minute tickets to Argentina, Brazil and other international stops on Swift’s Eras Tour. Check out the new list of tour dates here.
How Much Do Last-Minute Eras Tour Tickets Cost?
Resale tickets for The Eras Tour are currently available online for concerts in Argentina, Brazil and Japan.
How much are last-minute tickets? There’s more than one way to score Eras Tour tickets, but expect to spend a few hundred bucks on a ticket, depending on the seats and date of the show.
Fans can find last-minute tickets to The Eras Tour at StubHub and Viagogo. Prices range from approximately $60-$115 for her shows dated Nov. 9-11.
Swift will perform in Buenos Aries from Nov. 9-11 and Brazil starting on Nov. 17. Tickets are selling fast — especially in the last hour (over 5,000 people were looking at tickets when we checked). The Eras Tour makes its way overseas next year to Japan, Australia, Singapore and more before circling back to the U.S.
Tickets for next year’s North American leg are currently available at StubHub, Vivid Seats and Seat Geek, although pricing can range anywhere from $500 to more than $900. (Save $10 off at Seat Geek. Offer applies to eligible purchases of $250+ with code BILLBOARD10. Valid on first purchases only.)
Looking for the cheapest tickets? Searching different sites will give you a better chance of landing tickets at a lower price point, but we did some of the digging for you.
At press time, tickets for the earliest dates start at around $115 on StubHub, which is around the same prices that you might find on sites such as Ticketsmarter.
The Eras Tour is a celebration of all 10 of the studio albums Swift has released since 2006. Last year, the singer shared a poster advertising the tour’s initial 27-date U.S. leg on Instagram featuring a collage of photos of herself through the years, from the time of her self-titled debut to Midnights, which dropped less than two weeks prior to the tour news.
“I wanted to tell you something that I’ve been so excited about for a really long time. I’ve been planning for ages and I finally get to tell you: I’m going back on tour,” Swift said on GMA, announcing the news. “The tour is called the Eras tour and it’s a journey through all of the musical eras of my career.”
Before you visit Bad Bunny‘s native island, you better learn how to pronounce its name.
In brand-new promos for his upcoming appearance as host and musical guest on this weekend’s Saturday Night Live, Benito schools castmember Heidi Gardner on how to pronounce “Puerto Rico.”
“I’ve always wanted to go to Port-oh Reek-oh,” Gardner says, butchering the commonwealth’s name.
“Puerto Rico,” Bunny corrects.
“Sorry, Port-oh Reek-oh!” Gardner repeats.
After trying again, the superstar artist gives up: “You know what? Don’t go, please.”
Elsewhere in the promos, Gardner compliments “the message” of Bad Bunny’s music but says she “can’t say it.” “Because it’s in Spanish?” he asks. No, she responds, before saying her bleeped-out response. “OK, you can’t say that on TV,” Bunny admits with a laugh.
He also valiantly saves Gardner from a mosquito during their promo shoot. Watch the new promos below:
Bad Bunny made his first appearance on SNL in April 2020 with a cameo during a pandemic-era Saturday Night Live at Home episode. He made his debut as a musical guest in February 2021 (and acted in a couple of sketches) alongside Bridgerton star Regé-Jean Page as the host. This weekend’s episode will mark Bad Bunny’s first time hosting.
The NBC late-night staple returned for its 49th season this past weekend, with Pete Davidson hosting and Ice Spice as the musical guest. Former SNL castmember Davidson was supposed to host the show back on May 6, alongside musical guest Lil Uzi Vert, before the writers’ strike canceled all upcoming episodes when it started on May 2. The season premiere marked Ice Spice’s debut on the show, with her collaborator Taylor Swift even making a cameo to introduce her second performance of the night.
Bad Bunny’s SNL episode will air Saturday at 11:30 p.m. ET/8:30 p.m. PT on NBC and streaming live on Peacock.
When it comes to the team-up of The Kid LAROI, Jung Kook and Central Cee, as far as fans are concerned, there’s likely never “TOO MUCH.” The international trio unleashed their new “TOO MUCH” song and music video on Thursday night (Oct. 19) ahead of the release of LAROI’s debut full-length album The First Time next month.
Australian hitmaker The Kid LAROI enlisted South Korea’s Jung Kook and the U.K.’s Central Cee for the vibey new song, and they dropped a Ramez Silyan-directed video to match. In the visual, the three stars appear on the covers of the fictional TOO MUCH magazine, and their mag covers come to life in colorful performance vignettes.
“If we had the chance and the time to spend, would you do it again? Would you do it again?” BTS member Jung Kook sings in the chorus. “Was it too much?”
LAROI and Central Cee are both co-writers on the track, along with Justin Bieber, Omer Fedi, Jasper Harris, Emile Haynie, Blake Slatkin and Billy Walsh. The song was produced by Fedi, Harris, Haynie and Slatkin.
The First Time, which is due in November, will follow LAROI’s debut mixtape, F*ck Love, which topped the Billboard 200 albums chart back in 2021. The mixtape’s Savage deluxe edition included LAROI’s breakout hit single “Without You,” whose Miley Cyrus-featuring remix hit the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, while the mixtape’s Over You deluxe edition included the Hot 100 No. 1 Bieber duet “Stay.”

Jussie Smollett is currently in rehab and is receiving treatment from an outpatient program, a representative for the actor confirmed in a statement to TMZ on Wednesday.
“Jussie has had an extremely difficult past few years,” Smollett’s representative told the celebrity news outlet. “He has quietly been working very hard for some time now and we are proud of him for taking these necessary steps.”

Smollett’s time in rehab comes amid him awaiting an appeal from his Chicago criminal case that dates back to 2019, when he was found guilty of lying to police about being attacked by two masked Trump supporters, who he then alleged attacked him, put a noose around his neck and doused him in bleach.
Following the incident, Smollett was sentenced to 150 days in jail but was released early due to an appeal. In the time since the controversy, Smollett has been getting back into his career and has started directing as the legal process continued. Per TMZ, he’s been spotted working on film sets, one of which includes a project with actress Vivica A. Fox.
In addition to recently being seen on a hike in Los Angeles with his former Empire co-star Taraji P. Henson, Smollett attended last year’s BET Awards, which drew backlash from viewers of the program online on social media. The year prior, Smollett attended the premiere of B-Boy Blues — which served as his directorial debut — at New York City’s AMC Magic Johnson Harlem theater in November 2021.
UPDATE: P!nk announced Thursday (Oct. 19) that she’s postponing her Friday and Saturday shows in Vancouver, Canada, due to a respiratory infection.
“I am deeply sorry to share that I have a respiratory infection and my doctor has advised that I am unable to perform at the Vancouver shows on Friday and Saturday,” she wrote in an Instagram message. “Live Nation is working on new dates to reschedule the shows. I am very much looking forward to performing in Vancouver and putting on an incredible show for everyone. In the meantime, I wish everyone good health and am sending lots of love. xoxo Pink”
The postponements come three days after she also delayed a pair of Trustfall Tour dates in Tacoma, Washington, earlier this week.
PREVIOUSLY: P!nk has postponed two shows on her just-launched Trustfall Tour due to “family medical issues,” the singer announced Monday (Oct. 16).
The two shows affected are Tuesday and Wednesday’s concerts in Tacoma, Washington.
“I am so sorry to inform the Tacoma ticket holders that the two shows October 17 and October 18 (tomorrow and Wednesday) will be postponed,” P!nk wrote in a message shared to Instagram. “Live Nation are working on future dates to reschedule. Family medical issues require our immediate attention. I send everyone my sincerest apologies for any inconvenience this has caused. I am sending nothing but love and health to all.”
P!nk is three dates into her Trustfall Tour, which launched in Sacramento, Calif., on Thursday and had two dates in San Francisco over the weekend. The pop singer had just wrapped the North American leg of her Summer Carnival stadium tour, which has one rescheduled date remaining on Nov. 26 in Arlington, Texas — after she canceled a September show due to a sinus infection — and will pick back up in Australia and New Zealand in February.
According to figures reported to Billboard Boxscore, Summer Carnival has so far grossed $257.6 million and sold 1.8 million tickets across 41 shows. Summer Carnival began with 19 shows in Europe, bringing in $106.8 million from 871,000 tickets, then arrived Stateside for a $150.7 million run in the U.S. and Canada, selling 914,000 tickets.
Her current tour is in support of her ninth studio album, Trustfall, which arrived Feb. 17 via RCA.
