It’s a “Cruel Summer” with You

Following a dramatic interlude that referenced Swift’s first 10 albums, the singer emerged from under the stage to perform her Lover song “Miss Americana & the Heartbreak Prince,” then segued into the hit “Cruel Summer.”

She’s “The Man”

Swift then addressed the lively crowd, joking that they felt powerful as she showed off and kissed her biceps. As she slipped on a blazer, she transitioned into her next song by letting the crowd know that they made her feel like “The Man.”

This Is Our Place, We Make the Rules

During the show, Swift brought the Lover House to life as she performed the titular song from her seventh studio album with her full band and backup singers.

Starry-Eyed

Swift ended her Lover set by singing her ballad “The Archer,” transforming the stage into a starry spectacle.

She’s ‘Fearless’

Swift then returned to her Fearless days, donning her best gold dress for the era. She even threw up a heart for the audience before doing her signature twirl with her studded guitar.

Standing Ovation

One of the highlights of Swift’s evermore era was her performance of “Champagne Problems” at her moss-covered piano, which always earned a huge standing ovation from the crowd. One of the longest was an eight-minute round of applause during her final L.A. show on Aug. 9, 2023 (pictured above).

Tribute to Marjorie

During her evermore set, Swift brought the audience to tears with “Marjorie,” a song she wrote about her late grandmother, opera singer Marjorie Finlay. Swifties paid tribute to Marjorie by turning on their camera flashlights during the performance, creating a stunning array of lights across the stadium.

Hanging with Haim

For select dates when Haim served as her opening act, Swift brought out the sibling trio to perform “No Body, No Crime” from her album evermore. While performing in Santa Clara, Calif. (pictured above), the musical sisters donned their outfits from the “Bejeweled” music video, in which they played Swift’s evil stepsisters.

Snaking Into Her ‘Reputation’ Era

Nothing quite topped the introduction to Swift’s Reputation era — images of snakes and Swift’s clanking heels appeared on the screen before her hit song “Ready For It?” blared through the speakers. However, a true highlight was her transition from “Don’t Blame Me” to “Look What You Made Me Do.”

The Old Taylors Can Come to the Stage Right Now

Paying homage to the “Look What You Made Me Do” music video, Swift’s backup dancers dressed up as “old Taylors” as she performed the hit song. It was a true “eras” moment to see Swift in her snake-queen glory with her old selves all on one stage.

1, 2, 3, Let’s Go!

From clapping during “You Belong with Me” to singing Kendrick Lamar’s verse in “Bad Blood,” fans created many interactive chants for the Eras Tour. Still, none quite topped the “1, 2, 3, let’s go b—-” chant before “Delicate,” which even Swift participated in.

Painted Her Golden

After 131 consecutive shows in the red snake bodysuit for Reputation, Swift had fans in Miami (pictured above) going wild when she stepped out in a brand-new gold iteration.

Pretty Princess Moment

Though the Eras Tour’s Speak Now set was short, it was also sweet, with Swift having a princess moment in a gorgeous gown for “Enchanted.” The Nicole + Felicia confection felt like an homage to Swift’s Valentino ballgown from her Speak Now Tour.

‘This Night Is Sparkling’

For the Speak Now era, Swift wore numerous fairytale-inspired gowns over the nearly two-year tour, including a bedazzled blue dress she debuted in Miami.

“Long Live” the Memories We Made

During a few special performances, Swift extended her Speak Now set by singing her hit “Long Live” with her band.

A Perfect Night to Dress Up Like Hipsters

For her Red set, Swift dressed up like a hipster to perform “22.” In a heartwarming move, she ended the song by giving her hat to a special fan in the audience.

We Remember It “All Too Well”

Swift set the scene as she sang the 10-minute version of her song “All Too Well” — as she reminisced about fall and winter, the seasons came to life with leaf and snow confetti.

Trouble, Trouble

Swift didn’t hold back with the special effects, singing “I Knew You Were Trouble” as bursts of smoke shot up onstage around her.

Having Fun with Phoebe Bridgers

During a few performances, Swift was joined by her May 2023 opening act, Phoebe Bridgers, as the two performed their song “Nothing New” from Red (Taylor’s Version).

The ‘Folklore’ Cabin

Following her Red set, Swift transitioned to her folklore era by bringing the woodsy cabin to life on stage and soulfully singing tracks like “Cardigan” and “The Last Great American Dynasty.”

Getting ‘Lost in the Memory’

During her folklore set, Swift put her cape dress to good use, twirling around onstage and getting up close with the audience.

‘The Rain Came Pouring Down’

At her stop in Foxborough, Mass., Swift shook off the rain, dancing away in her green two-piece (pictured above).

‘Burning It Down’

After bringing the Lover House to life, Swift burned it to the ground during her 1989 set as she belted out “Bad Blood.” During her show at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., Swift perfectly matched the fiery hue with her orange outfit and boots (pictured above).

Orange You Glad to See Her?

Speaking of orange …

Swift lit up the stage in a sparkly, sporty crop top and skirt during her 1989 set. Along with other citrusy outfits, the two-piece look was a style Easter egg for her then-unannounced album, The Life of a Showgirl.

Specifically, during the European leg of the tour, the pop star debuted a series of fiery outfits, including a new tangerine Versace bodysuit with matching Christian Louboutins, a coral Versace blazer, a sunset-hued ruffled dress and an ombré yellow-and-orange Roberto Cavalli set.

Who’s Afraid of Little Old She?

Following the release of her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, on April 19, 2024, fans wondered how the singer would incorporate the LP into her lengthy setlist.

At the first show following TTPD’s release, Swift reorganized the setlist to add seven songs off the album. For “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?,” she paraded around the stage on a hovering platform.

Beam Me Up

For “Down Bad,” the singer-songwriter sat on a gliding platform as a spotlight was cast from a UFO hovering overhead. The song slowly transitioned into her Post Malone collaboration “Fortnight.”

Toss it to a V.I.P. Guest

Swift welcomed new faces onstage during her eight summer dates at Wembley Stadium in London, including a very important guest for the June 23, 2024, show: her then-boyfriend, Travis Kelce. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end joined his lady for a skit between songs, lifting her onto a sofa and prepping her to perform “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.”

Take Me to “Florida!!!”

On the final night of the tour’s European leg in London on Aug. 20, 2024, Swift surprised the crowd with the live debut of “Florida!!!” from The Tortured Poets Department. She even brought out Florence Welch to perform the song alongside her.

And the Surprise Song Is …

Swift’s acoustic set became one of the most anticipated moments of the Eras Tour as Swifties eagerly awaited to hear what she would perform at each show. The surprise songs ranged from early hits like “Tim McGraw” to mash-ups such as “New Year’s Day/Peace.”

Dream Team

After Welch’s stage visit, Swift continued to treat the audience by bringing out longtime collaborator and close friend Jack Antonoff for her acoustic set. The dynamic duo wielded guitars to perform a mash-up of their songs “Getaway Car” and “Death by a Thousand Cuts.”

Fairytale Moment with Sabrina Carpenter

During a show in Sydney on Feb. 23, 2024, Swift was joined by friend Carpenter, her opening act, for a take on “White Horse” at the flower-covered piano (pictured above).

Speaking of ‘Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)’

Swift also used her acoustic set as an opportunity to make special announcements, starting with the news at her Nashville show on May 5, 2023, of her re-recording of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), which dropped on July 7 that year.

I Can See a Reunion Brewing

On the night of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)’s release, Swift debuted the music video for “I Can See You” onstage in Kansas City, Mo. She enlisted some surprise guests for the occasion: Presley Cash, Joey King and her ex-boyfriend Taylor Lautner, who all played pivotal roles in her Speak Now era. The music video officially came out on YouTube the next day.

Not Feeling Blue About ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’

As Swift performed one of her final shows of the first U.S. tour leg in L.A. on Aug. 9, 2023 (pictured above), she shocked the crowd by announcing 1989 (Taylor’s Version) onstage. She also debuted several new blue concert looks in honor of the album.

End Gamers

For her Aug. 15, 2024, show at Wembley Stadium in London, Swift brought out her longtime friend Sheeran, whom she introduced as “a second brother.” They sang a mega medley of their hits “Everything Has Changed” and “End Game,” as well as Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud.”

“Please, Please, Please” Keep Duetting

During the last leg of the Eras Tour, some familiar faces rejoined Swift onstage, including former opener Carpenter in New Orleans (above). After a cute phone call introduction, Carpenter came out to perform a mash-up of her songs “Please Please Please” and “Espresso” with Swift’s “Is It Over Now?”

‘Sweet Like Honey’ with Ice Spice

The MetLife Stadium in New Jersey became a party palace on May 26, 2023, when Ice Spice joined friend Swift onstage for a special performance of their “Karma” remix.

Diamonds in Her Eyes

In her Midnights era, the whole place shimmered with Swift’s live rendition of “Bejeweled,” complete with sparkly choreography from her backup dancers.

Dressing for Revenge

The superstar singer’s sultry performance of “Vigilante S—” was another much-talked-about moment from the show. It went viral on social media, with many trying to replicate her intricate chair choreography.

“Karma” Is Confetti

It wouldn’t be a Swift show without confetti! As she closed the tour with “Karma,” the stage was covered in rainbow pieces representing her first 10 albums.

Full-Circle Piano Moment

Fans pointed out that Swift’s first piano tune of the whole tour was “Tim McGraw,” the first song in her discography. She concluded the Vancouver shows (and, thus, the entire tour) with a mash-up that included “Long Live,” “New Year’s Day” and “The Manuscript” — the final song on The Tortured Poets Department.

“Wildest Dreams” Realized

After a few teary moments in the last shows leading up to the Dec. 8 finale, Swift kept her cool, even as the crowd sang her “Happy Birthday” during the evermore set.

As she wrapped up the epic two years, Swift thanked the fans and her crew, giving everyone onstage a hug before saying goodbye to her eras.
