After some Taylor Swift Vancouver listening-only tickets were released, those who managed to acquire them are cashing in.
On Monday, it was revealed that some listening-only tickets, located behind the stage, were made available. Thousands queued up for those tickets for each night of the concert, and now some of those tickets are being resold on StubHub for a whole lot of money.
The listening-only tickets were selling for super cheap, approximately $15 plus tax. According to Ticketmaster, they are now sold out for each night of the show.

If you visit StubHub, the top three trending events across the website are for the three dates Swift is set to play in Vancouver at BC Place beginning December 6. For anyone unfamiliar with StubHub, it’s a buy-and-sell ticket marketplace. The users set the prices.
As of Tuesday, according to the prices on StubHub, ticket rates increase the closer you get to having a view of the stage. The listening-only tickets are either directly or diagonally behind the stage, not giving spectators an actual line of sight on Swift. Prices for these tickets range between $1,300 and $5,100.
Here’s an example. Section 230 is almost directly behind the stage, just a few rows from the front.

Believe it or not, some of the listening-only tickets aren’t just being listed for thousands; they’re actually being sold. If those resellers only bought those tickets for $15, they’re making quite a profit.

We asked Daily Hive readers if they were interested in the listening-only tickets. Some said yes, and others were a bit perplexed by the demand for the behind-the-stage tickets.
