What's fascinating is that Swift has only toured her home country and hasn't even begun her tour in foreign countries where she plans to perform. Her fans globally are reportedly willing to pay as much as six whole figures to watch Swift perform. She plans to tour the continents of South America, Asia, Europe, and Australia. At present, the sales have accounted for a total of $300.8 million and may go even further. Each ticket costs $253. Reports also suggest that around 54k tickets are sold out per show. Since she hasn't yet begun her international tour, her tour sales numbers strongly indicate that she'll most likely surpass $1 billion real soon.
