The Eras Tour is the sixth concert tour by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, who described it as a journey through all her musical "eras." An homage to her albums, the Eras Tour is Swift's most expansive tour yet, with 151 shows across five continents. It is the highest-grossing tour of all time and the first to surpass $1 billion in revenue.
Announced after the release of her tenth studio album, Midnights (2022), the Eras Tour is Swift's second all-stadium tour after the 2018 Reputation Stadium Tour. It commenced on March 17, 2023, in Glendale, United States, and is set to conclude on December 8, 2024, in Vancouver, Canada. The show spans over 3.5 hours, with 44 songs grouped into ten distinct acts that conceptually portray the albums. It received rave reviews from critics, who emphasized its concept, production, aesthetics, immersive ambiance, Swift's musicianship, vocals, stage presence, and versatility.
The tour had a broad cultural, economic, and political impact, evident in the form of unprecedented demand, ticket sales, venue attendance records, and technical obstacles that led to the imposition of price regulation and anti-scalping laws; elevated economies, businesses, and tourism; domination of news cycles and social media; and a range of accolades and tributes from governments and organizations. Ticketmaster, an official tour partner, was scrutinized for ineffective sales and alleged monopoly.
Swift announced and released various works during the tour: extended editions of Midnights, the re-recorded albums Speak Now (Taylor's Version) and 1989 (Taylor's Version), the music videos for "Karma" and "I Can See You," and "Cruel Summer" as a single. An accompanying concert film was released to theaters worldwide on October 13, 2023, and became the highest-grossing concert film in history. Wikipedia
