Are you ready for it? Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour is finally here.
The 52-day trek begins Friday night in Glendale, Ariz., at State Farm Stadium, with Gayle and Paramore opening. This will be Swift’s first tour since the Reputation Stadium Tour in 2018, as her 2020 Lover Fest event was canceled before it started due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Swift has since released three studio albums — “Folklore” and “Evermore” in 2020, and “Midnights” in October 2022 — and re-recorded “Fearless” and “Red” (both of which featured bonus tracks) in 2021. .
Swift has promised this run will be a “journey through all my musical eras,” prompting Swifties everywhere to speculate what that means for the tour’s set list. Will he sing hits from all 10 of his albums in chronological order, or will he mix them up to tell a completely different story? Only time will tell. Regardless, the Eras Tour is shaping up to be one of the wildest dreams of his fans—those who managed to get tickets, that is.
Overwhelming demand for tickets when they went on sale in November caused Ticketmaster to collapse, leaving hundreds of thousands of fans disappointed. The tour broke the record for concert tickets sold by an artist in one day with 2.4 million, and the collapse of Ticketmaster even led to a congressional hearing on the lack of competition in the ticketing industry. In short, those who see Swift perform tonight are on holy ground — and the rest of us will just have to put up with it.
