Cheapest resale tickets for Taylor Swift’s Indianapolis shows start at over K

A little over a year after gracing Cincinnati’s Paycor Stadium, Taylor Swift is ending the U.S. leg of her Eras Tour in the Midwest, just over 100 miles away at Indianapolis’s Lucas Oil Stadium.

Before heading to Canada for the tour’s final shows, Swift is performing Nov. 1, 2 and 3 alongside opener Gracie Abrams, closing out a history-making global music phenomenon in Indiana’s capital city.

Looking to snag last-minute tickets this week? We scanned various resell sites to try and find the cheapest tickets still available. Take a look below. (Note: Ticket prices changed countless times during the production of this story. The numbers below may not reflect the most up-to-date ticket costs).

Where to find tickets for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour shows in Indianapolis

The cheapest pair of tickets we found across multiple resale platforms was a set of seats listed on VividSeats for $2,190 each in Section 605 for the Saturday, Nov. 2, show.

There were a handful of StubHub ticket listings around $2,500 for the Friday, Nov. 1, show, including two in Section 449 priced at $2,435 each. As of Monday, the platform said this pair of tickets had the lowest price of any listed on its site.

Seat Geek had lots of ticket deals for fans who are okay with slightly obstructed views, including a pair of tickets for $2,265 each for the Nov. 1 show in Section 606.

Those gearing up to attend the concert alone can enjoy slightly better prices. A Section 610 ticket listed on StubHub was going for $2,060.

With verified presale tickets long gone, Ticketmaster did not show any available tickets for the three Indianapolis shows.

Could Taylor Swift ticket prices drop for the Indianapolis shows?

It’s unclear if prices will fall further in the days leading up to the first show, but that seems to be happening in other U.S. cities and follows a pattern that has happened throughout the tour. For example, a pair of floor tickets listed on StubHub that the IndyStar reported to be $12,741 in early September is available now for $8,972.

It’s also possible that a change in Ticketmaster’s policies regarding ticket transfers could be impacting prices.

Amid a surge of reported ticket scams related to Swift’s concerts, Ticketmaster is now enforcing new rules. Ticket transfers now can only start 72 hours before the event, meaning that those purchasing resale tickets won’t see the tickets in their accounts until shortly before the show. Previously, transfers could happen anytime.

Swift’s shows take place at Lucas Oil Stadium from Nov. 1-3. For more information about all things related to the concerts, check out IndyStar’s comprehensive coverage here.

Noblesville man arrested, accused of rape of UIndy student in dorm room

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A 21-year-old man was arrested and accused of raping a University of Indianapolis student on campus.

Police say the investigation began on Jan. 24 when University of Indianapolis Police received a call from a woman who said she believed she was drugged at a bar in downtown Indianapolis and then raped in her dorm room.

Court documents say she met Marwan Khalaf of Noblesville at the Metro Bar on Massachusetts Avenue and went back to her dorm room, where he repeatedly raped her. When she woke up one of the last times, he was gone.

According to court documents, she next went to shower and passed out again. She woke up in the shower at 7 a.m. Jan. 24 and called 911.

The student told investigators she had gone out alone on Jan. 23 and took an Uber to a few bars downtown before arriving at the Metro Bar at 12:51 a.m. Jan. 24. Court documents state that’s where she met Khalaf and they danced together.

Court documents say the bar refused to serve the student a drink because she was already intoxicated when she arrived. Khalaf then bought her a shot and they asked her to leave. She says Khalaf left with her and offered to take her home.

The student says she recalls his car being “parked directly across the street from Metro.” According to UIPD Detective Jay Arnold, the student’s identification card was used to enter the dorm at 2:13 a.m.

In an interview with detectives, Khalaf admitted to being at the bar and kissing her, but denied having sexual contact with the student. He told detectives he took care of her because she was drunk and said he left the dorm when it became light outside because his mother was calling him.

Khalaf has been charged with two counts of rape and one count of sexual battery.

We speak for ourselves in IPS-charter debate. Don’t dismiss us. | Letters

We speak for ourselves in IPS-charter debate. Don’t dismiss us. | Letters

The signers of a recent statement by the African American Coalition of Indianapolis questioning who speaks for the Black community raise concerns about process while our students of color continue to be left behind in a public education system that offers too little opportunity and too few positive outcomes.

We agree that parents and students should be heard, which is why we’re troubled that our voices were overlooked during the public process led by the Indianapolis Local Education Alliance. We were present at nearly every ILEA meeting, sharing our personal experiences and asking leaders to take bold action, and we spent months discussing and researching ideas before offering a series of recommendations to improve schools in both IPS and the charter sector.

For many of us, speaking up to improve public education in our city goes back years. We have consistently focused on stronger accountability for all schools within IPS and on growing what works in communities that most need quality schools. So we have to ask: Did you not hear us? Or did you choose to ignore us because our opinions don’t align with yours? Are you now trying to diminish our voices by suggesting that our affiliation with certain organizations means we can’t think or speak for ourselves?

Let us be clear. Our advocacy is driven by our own experiences, and it is these perspectives that add value to the debate we’re having as a community. We live in neighborhoods that are directly impacted by the opportunity gap. It takes courage to advocate, and when voices like ours are attacked, it discourages others in our community from standing up and speaking out.

We strongly support IPS — many of us attended the district as children and have our own students there now. We also support a system of quality charter schools, and we will continue to advocate for both despite attempts to pit sectors against one another. While these recent words and claims are unfair and deeply hurtful, we remain dedicated to bringing voices together to solve problems.

It is time to stop the toxic politics of school type and focus on progress for children, especially Black and brown students who have been harmed by a tragic opportunity gap that has existed for generations. While House Bill 1423 is not perfect, we see it as the best opportunity in many years to hold all schools accountable for improved results, expand transportation and access across IPS, and move toward financial stability across the system.

You may disagree with us on the policy, and that is OK. But please do not dismiss our voices or discount our stories, which represent so many in IPS who simply want a high-quality, safe public school experience for their children.

LaToya Hale, Greg Henson, Dontia Dyson, Cristal Salgado and Swantella Nelson are Indianapolis parents.
