Can I still buy merch even if I don't have a ticket to the Eras Tour?

The short answer? Yes.

Two days before the first concert day, the Taylor Swift Merchandise Store will be open to the public and no ticket is required for entry.

The store will be open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 16, and Thursday, Oct. 17, you just have to enter through Parking Gate 2.

On these days there is no charge for parking at the Hard Rock.

If you go on concert days, the store will only be open for ticket holders and be accessible for the date of the ticket.

Tickets are required for entry since the store is inside the stadium.

The store will be open from 4:30 p.m. to midnight on Friday, Oct. 18; Saturday Oct. 19 and Sunday, Oct. 20.
