Taylor Swift concert chronology |
The Eras Tour is the ongoing sixth concert tour by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It commenced on March 17, 2023, in Glendale, Arizona and is set to conclude on December 8, 2024, in Vancouver, consisting of 149 shows that span five continents. It is the highest-grossing tour in history, becoming the first tour ever to surpass $1 billion in revenue, and has had a cultural and economic impact across the globe.
Swift announced the Eras Tour in November 2022, following the release of her tenth studio album Midnights (2022), as her second all-stadium tour after the 2018 Reputation Stadium Tour. Running over 3.5 hours, the set list of the Eras Tour consists of over 40 songs grouped into 10 distinct acts that portray all of Swift's studio albums conceptually; the show was revamped in May 2024 to incorporate her then-new eleventh studio album, The Tortured Poets Department (2024).
The tour received praise from critics, who emphasized the concept, production, aesthetics and immersive ambience, as well as Swift's vocals, stage presence, and versatile showmanship. It recorded unprecedented public demand, ticket sales and attendances, bolstering economies, businesses, and tourism worldwide, dominating social media and news cycles, and garnering tributes and accolades from governments and organizations. On the other hand, the tour was met with multifarious obstacles, including ticketing issues that inspired a string of anti-scalping laws and price regulation policies. Ticketmaster, an official ticketing partner of the tour, was scrutinized and sued by US authorities for ineffective sales and monopoly, whereas the exclusive Singapore dates caused diplomatic tensions in Southeast Asia. Poor venue management in Rio de Janeiro resulted in a death, and an ISIS plot to attack the tour in Vienna was thwarted.
Swift disclosed and released various works during the tour: the re-recorded albums Speak Now (Taylor's Version) and 1989 (Taylor's Version), the music videos of "Karma" and "I Can See You", editions of Midnights and The Tortured Poets Department, and "Cruel Summer" as a single. An accompanying concert film, documenting the Los Angeles shows, was released to theaters worldwide on October 13, 2023, in an uncommon distribution deal circumventing major film studios. Met with critical acclaim, the film became the highest-grossing concert film in history.
