Taylor Swift’s Eras tour started on Friday the 17th of March 2023 and continues until Wednesday the 9th of August 2023. She announced the tour on last November 2022 when she appeared on Good Morning America, she also announced the news onto all her socials.

The Eras tour is her sixth tour. The reason it is called The Eras tour is because it represents the journey through each musical era of her career. The set list for the tour features 44 songs selected from all her albums. Ranging from her first album that she ever released in 2006 called Taylor Swift with her song Tim McGraw to her newest album released in 2022 called Midnights containing the songs Anti-hero and Midnight Rain. According to Guinness World Records her album Midnights broke the record for Most streamed album,

Most day-one streams of an album, and Most streamed act on Spotify. Her Midnights album broke the record for most steamed album in 24 hours which was previously held by Drake. His album Certified Lover Boy had 153.4 million streams in the space of 24 hours after the release whereas Midnights had 228 million streams. All too well the ten-minute version is also featured in the line up from her Red (Taylor’s Version) album which is one of my favourite songs by her.

Each of her ten albums will have their own act in the tour. She will recreate the aesthetic of each album with costume and set changes. This is her first tour in five years since her Reputation tour in 2018. She was unable to go on tour for her Lover, Folklore and Evermore albums. She is set to play 52 dates for The Eras concert. So far her tour is based in the US, the international dates are yet to be announced.
