Despite rumours swirling of concert dates heading to calendars for 2025, global superstar Taylor Swift has confirmed her Eras Tour will come to an end this December.
If no further dates are added past what's currently scheduled, this means Swift will close out her record-breaking two-year world tour with a three-show run in Vancouver.
Swift will play BC Place on December 6, 7, and 8 this year. Vancouver is the second city with Eras Tour dates; several dates in Toronto were released before the award-winning star announced she would play Vancouver.
While onstage for her first night playing Liverpool, England Thursday (June 13), Swift offered a bittersweet nod to the fact that it was the 100th Eras Tour show: “The celebration of the 100th show for me means this is the very first time I’ve ever acknowledged to myself and admitted that this tour is going to end in December," said Swift to the crowd at Anfield Stadium.
Fans have long speculated how the Eras Tour, which had its "Very First Night" in Glendale, Arizona in March 2023, would come to an end.
Following a short hiatus, the Eras Tour picked up in April for its European leg, following the release of Swift's 11th album (a surprise "double" album of 31 songs) called The Tortured Poets Department. Swifties were stunned and elated to learn the setlist was altered, with a new TTPD section added and some songs dropped, but many who had seen the previous edition of the Eras Tour wished they'd had a chance to see the new version in person.
Once The Eras Tour wraps up its European leg and the singer says "So Long, London" later this August, Swift and her cast and crew will have a nearly two-month break before a mini U.S. leg with cities she had not previously visited, starting with three shows in Miami (as in "Florida!!!") in October followed by stops in New Orleans and Indianapolis.
Swift currently has Toronto and Vancouver as last scheduled 2024 Eras Tour shows
The Eras Tour then heads north to Canada for a whopping six-show run in Toronto before Swift heads west to Vancouver for her December dates.
Some fans, including many who enjoy attempting to "decode" Swift's legendary "easter egg" clues about future plans, have wondered if the tour would revisit cities beloved to the superstar, like L.A., New York, or Nashville, particularly given that Swift's birthday is December 13 and she might want to celebrate with a special last show. But so far, Swift hasn't heeded the calls for her to "Come Back, Be Here" in any other cities.
Vancouver Swifties - and anyone who has coveted tickets to her BC Place shows - are "Down Bad" and pinching themselves that we might well get to experience the last performances of a milestone concert tour.
Fans in online groups for ticket reselling and planning for the Vancouver shows have been discussing special ovations, chants, and even singing "Happy Birthday" on night three to Swift. Now some attending have planned to make special friendship bracelets marking the "End of an Era" if Vancouver is, indeed, the very last night Eras Tour stop, for "Evermore."
