Advance ticket sales for Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour have surged past the $65 million mark, according to Deadline.

To begin with, Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour will only be playing in North America.
The robust advance sales of Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour have already surpassed those of blockbuster superhero movies like Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (which reached $60 million in advance sales) and The Batman ($42 million). Both of those two movies set records shortly before their premieres.
Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour hasn’t yet matched the all-time record for pre-sales for a movie, which was set by Spider-Man: No Way Home. That superhero flick raked in $120 million in advance ticket sales prior to opening in theaters.
