In an unforgettable opening night of the Australian leg of her Eras Tour, Taylor Swift’s father, Scott Swift, became a beacon of generosity for several lucky fans at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

With a record-breaking attendance of 96,000 Swifties, the energy and anticipation in the air were palpable as the 34-year-old global sensation prepared to take the stage.

Before the concert began, in a gesture that captured the hearts of many, Scott Swift navigated through the crowds, personally handing out VIP wristbands valued at $2,000 to fans who had secured last-minute seats with restricted views.


The heartwarming act was highlighted on social media by 3AW presenter Jacqui Felgate, who shared a message detailing how a mother and daughter, initially seated in a less desirable section, were suddenly upgraded to the VIP area thanks to Scott’s kindness.

The message read: “A good news story out of the MCG. My friend and her daughter had the cheap restricted seats from yesterday’s release and rocked up as soon as the gates opened.

“Sat down and Taylor Swift’s dad went around and handed them wristbands and entry into the VIP section — apparently about $2000 in total value. Seriously lucky and how generous and kind is Papa Swift!!!”
