Prime ticket holders, seated before the stage, were moved while the staging was repaired.

Promoter Frontier Touring offered refunds.

The glitch failed to hinder the 40,000-strong audience, or Swift, who bounced on stage to tell the crowd of her Grammy nomination.

She recounted that Brisbane was the first city she visited on her first visit downunder five years ago. “I played a show at The Tivoli and I think about 50 to 100 of you came to see me and look what you’ve done, Brisbane!”
