Taylor Swift Wraps Up Eras Tour: 10 Highlights From The Singer’s Biggest Tour Yet

As a die-hard Taylor Swift fan, I’ve been living, breathing, and dreaming in Taylorswiftland for the past three years (or should I say, eras?). The Eras Tour was not just a concert series; it was a journey through time, emotions, and memories that made me feel like I was right there with Taylor, experiencing every high and low.

Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour concluded triumphantly with three outstanding shows in Vancouver from December 6th to 8th, wrapping up a 149-show tour. This monumental tour brought in over $2 billion in revenue, placing it among the most financially successful tours ever made.

On December 11, Swift posted a collection of images from the concluding performances and penned an emotional message reminiscent of her song “All Too Well,” hinting at it in her caption: “It was extraordinary. I was present. I recall it all.” Below are ten remarkable instances from the tour.

1. Vigilante Shit chair dance

In the movie Vigilante Shit, Swift particularly cherished the chair dance routine that she referred to as her highlight of the evening. “It was simply the most enjoyable experience I’ve ever had,” she remarked. This energetic performance, reminiscent of Bob Fosse, left a lasting impression on viewers.

2. Secret songs and mashups

During every performance of the Eras Tour, there were two hidden songs played. Starting from 2024, Taylor Swift began performing mashups nightly, blending multiple songs together. This unpredictable mix kept fans excited and guessing. The smooth transition between unexpected song combinations highlighted Taylor’s careful preparation.

3. Levitation in Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?

Among the standout moments for global viewers, the Tortured Poets Department segment truly captivated audiences, showcasing Taylor Swift in ‘Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?’ performance. She glided on a reflective stage, creating an optical illusion of floating, all while embodying a mystical character reminiscent of a witch. This breathtaking spectacle was undoubtedly one of the tour’s most mesmerizing and visually striking scenes.

4. The 10-minute ‘All Too Well’

At every performance, a 10-minute rendition of All Too Well was incorporated, during which Swift would invite the audience if they had ten minutes available. Even with the concert’s busy itinerary, Swift’s interpretation of this beloved tune turned out to be an unforgettable and eagerly awaited highlight of the tour.

5. First sing-along: Cruel Summer

During Cruel Summer’s bridge, fans found a deeply moving release as they emotionally sang in unison. Taylor Swift’s candid revelations about her personal relationships intensified the song, turning it into one of the tour’s most heartfelt and poignant sing-alongs.

6. Reputation’s slithering dance moves

In the Reputation segment, Swift and her dance troupe twisted their bodies into sinuous forms akin to snakes, embodying the media’s image of her during that timeframe. The choreography was daring and avant-garde, symbolizing Swift’s self-empowerment and reassertion of her personal narrative.

7. Emotional tribute in Marjorie

At Marjorie’s performance, Swift honored her deceased grandmother by playing a recording of her voice throughout the stadium. This emotional tribute struck a chord with many fans, particularly those who have also grieved, turning it into one of the most touching moments during the concert.

8. Witchy vibes in Willow

In Willow, Swift was accompanied by a troupe of dancers who twirled radiant orbs, filling the venue with an otherworldly ambiance. Their captivating act infused a spellbinding quality into one of Swift’s cherished tunes.

9. A glimpse of glam in I Can Do It With a Broken Heart

In the Tortured Poets Department segment, I stepped onto the stage donning a 1930s Hollywood-esque style, delivering “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” with an over-the-top theatrics. The show combined laughter and glamour, offering a distinctive, entertaining spectacle for my fellow fans.

10. Checkmate in Mastermind

Towards the end of Mastermind, a captivating dance routine based on a chessboard theme unfolded. Swift and her troupe mimicked the precise steps for checkmate, a subtle touch that spectators in the front row could fully appreciate. It was a smart and symbolic manner to conclude the performance.
