Physical barriers have been implemented throughout all floor sections closest to the stage. The Straits Times understands that, besides lining the aisles, they have been placed every dozen or so rows cutting across the aisles.
These measures follow reports from the opening night concert on March 2 that concertgoers in some floor sections were rushing to the front of the stage, to the point where an informal mosh pit was forming.
Many concerts such as British rock band Coldplay's recent ones in Singapore in January - use the floor space around the stage as a general admission standing pen.
For the Eras Tour in Singapore, and many other countries such as the United States, the floor has been divided into sections with assigned seating.
These sections were sold at different pricing tiers. The segments closest to the stage where concertgoers have the best view of Swift were priced at $1,228++ each, as part of the top-tier VIP1 packages.
Directly behind many of these VIP1 sections were the cheaper Category 1 ($348++), Category 2 ($328++) and VIP3 ($628++) sections.
