They excitedly announced, “Swifties from the Philippines topped the list of buyers for tickets sold with Klook Packages for The Eras Tour Singapore.” The tweet served as a testament to the passion and commitment of Filipino fans.
Klook, a renowned travel dealer, provided a unique opportunity for Swifties to experience their idol’s concert in style, the Singapore Business Times reported. The special packages offered concert tickets and luxurious one-night stays at four- and five-star hotels.
These packages, designed to elevate the concert experience, vanished from availability within a mere six hours. The swift response from Filipino fans highlighted their eagerness to go above and beyond to be part of Taylor Swift’s magical world.

While Klook did not disclose the exact number of packages offered for sale, it was clear that Filipino Swifties had surpassed Singapore, Indonesia, and China in terms of ticket sales. Even Malaysia secured a spot in the top five sources of customers.
The demand exceeded expectations, with more than 600,000 fans from across the region eagerly waiting and willing to spend over S$1,700 on the Klook experience packages.
