The highly anticipated tour was announced earlier in the month where Swift revealed she would be touring across North America with Ed Sheeran as her opening act.

The tour, called the Blown Away Tour sold out most arenas on its first leg and the second leg of the tour is expected to sell out as well, so fans will not want to delay.

While tickets will undoubtedly be selling fast for these country superstars, no seats will be filling up quite as fast as the seats in the Homestead-Miami Speedway this weekend. This is because the annual NASCAR Spring Cup Series event will be taking place at the speedway this Sunday, November 18th. This is one of the biggest and most frequented events not only in all of NASCAR but in professional sports as well. Last year more than 73,000 fans showed up to the Miami speedway for the finale, and those looking to attend can expect the same type of numbers as well. Fortunately for fans the massive speedway can accommodate thousands, but that doesn’t mean they should expect to get tickets at the door. With only hours left until the checkered flag waves those looking to attend the event will want to act fast. This will be the must-see sporting event of the weekend; do you have your tickets yet?
