A girl named Samantha Meany – a genuine Swiftie, asked the pilot to fly to SoFi Stadium, where The Eras Tour was taking place. Just to fulfill my wish of seeing Taylor Swift, even if from above.
Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, BTS and Blackpink are the most attractive stars and bands today, fans can travel all over the world to see them perform. At this time, countless music superstars are holding tours around the world in stadiums. And obviously wherever they announce a performance, the fan community will buy up all the tickets.
Because each concert at the stadium has a capacity of 50,000 to 80,000 people and artists only perform many nights in a single location, most fans will flock to the cities hosting the concerts. Many of them may be in other localities or even abroad.
Accordingly, The Eras Tour is the tour that many people want to participate in the most in the world. Taylor Swift concert tickets are bought and resold on the “black market” at extremely high prices but still do not meet the needs of fans.
However, nothing will make it difficult for Swifties with their top creativity to see their idols perform with their own eyes. Specifically, not long ago, an account on TikTok posted a clip that caused a storm when asking the pilot to fly over Inglewood – the area where the pop star’s concert was held.
Through research, the owner of this clip is Samantha Meany – a die-hard fan of the famous female singer. “Because Taylor Swift’s concert is happening right there and I thought it would be cool if we flew over there. I couldn’t get to the concert so I really wanted to fly over the venue,” Samantha Meany shared. .
Notably, the pilot not only complied with Samantha’s request but also invited her to sit in his driver’s seat to take commemorative photos before takeoff. After the interesting moment was posted, it attracted 7.4 million views.
But things were not as she expected, this initiative was not effective because the SoFi stadium that hosted The Eras Tour… had a roof. Although Samantha Meany’s plan to see her idol failed, many netizens praised the pilot for his “hospitality” in response to the difficult request.
It is known that traveling to the concert within the framework of The Eras Tour is by helicopter, deployed by an aircraft rental company in California for 2,500 USD per trip (about 59 million VND).
Taylor Swift’s US tour will end in mid-August. From the end of this month, the pop star will begin touring Latin America, then Asia, Europe and Australia next year. The “Eras Tour” is expected to be the highest-grossing tour of all time.
Not only the Taylor Swift concert, many fans of other stars or music groups are also willing to travel long distances to “go to the concert” of their idol and they consider it a musical trip.
Typically, in May, Ms. Tiffany Chung Yi-lok and her daughter flew from Hong Kong (China) to Singapore to see the performance of the Kpop girl group – BlackPink. “We couldn’t buy tickets to see Blackpink in Hong Kong so we decided to try our luck in Singapore,” Tiffany shared. After buying tickets, mother and daughter decided to combine going to the concert with a vacation to explore Singapore’s tourist attractions.
Tiffany is not the only case, YouTube and TikTok are also filled with shares from BlackPink (Blinks) fans, mainly from the Philippines and Malaysia. They flew to Singapore to meet their idol on the Born Pink tour – which started on October 15 last year in Seoul, Korea and will end on August 26, in Los Angeles, USA.
Many others even flew to Bangkok (Thailand) or even Sydney just to see the 4 YG girls perform. Most of these people will stay for four to six days in destinations to experience, visit, shop and eat at many famous local restaurants.
In Vietnam, at the end of July, many foreign tourists flocked to My Dinh Stadium, Hanoi to watch the Born Pink concert combined with sightseeing tours.
