Taylor Swi ’s Eras Tour has captivated the world this spring and summer as the mega tour event of a generation.

From the moment when tickets went on sale in the fall of 2022 and fans crashed Ticketmaster’s website, the world learned how big the tour would be.

And when she appeared on stage for the rst time in Glendale, Arizona on March 17, 2023, performing for three hours, it became apparent that the Eras Tour would be an epic experience. From the high quality production value, spectacular dance routines, and Swi ’s own enchanting performance, everything about the Era’s tour was huge in scale.

e Eras Tour is Swi ’s rst all-stadium tour in four years following the Reputation Stadium Tour.

e long-awaited announcement for e Eras Tour came shortly a er the release of Swi ’s record-breaking album Midnights, which became the most downloaded album in a single day with 186 million streams in 24 hours. It would be 2022’s highest-selling physical release with 1.3 million copies sold..

More than 3.5 million people registered for the Eras Tour presale, becoming the biggest registration in history. Only 1.5 million of the fans registered would receive a chance to purchase pre-sale tickets, leaving the other 2 million people with a slim chance of getting tickets. More than 15% of the fans on the site would experience issues and about 20% of the tickets sold were later posted for resale at high prices.

e Eras tour would break records all around the world. At Swi ’s opening night in Glendale Arizona she broke the record for the most attended female concert in U.S history. As the sixth concert tour of Swi s, e Eras tour broke the record for highest grossing US
