Can I live stream the Eras Tour?
As of now, there has been no official announcement about a live stream of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.
However, based on previous tours, there is a good chance some of the shows will be live streamed. Here are some possibilities:
Live Stream on Disney+
Swift’s Reputation Stadium Tour in 2018 was turned into a Netflix concert film. Her recent Midnights album was released in partnership with Disney+. As part of that deal, Disney+ could potentially live stream one or more Eras Tour shows.
Live Streams on Apple Music
Apple Music live streamed Swift’s City of Lover concert in Paris in 2019. They also streamed her Tiny Desk home concert in 2020. Apple Music is likely to host a live stream for at least one performance of the Eras Tour.
Live in Theaters
Swift’s previous tours were shown live in movie theaters and venues around the world through Fathom Events. Similar events are likely to be organized for the Eras Tour.
Pay-Per-View
Pay-per-view providers like In Demand have distributed concert live streams in the past. A pay-per-view option for the Eras Tour is possible.
Fans should closely monitor Swift’s social media channels and sign up for email alerts for any live stream announcements. The best way to guarantee you can watch online is to purchase a ticket for in-person attendance, as those tickets often come with free live stream access.
What songs will Taylor Swift perform on the Eras Tour?
Taylor Swift has released 10 studio albums over her career, so she has an extensive catalog of hits to choose from for the Eras Tour setlist. While the full setlist won’t be known until opening night, here are some predictions of songs she’s likely to perform:
From Midnights
As the Eras Tour is supporting Swift’s new Midnights album, fans can expect to hear many of the tracks live for the first time. Songs like “Anti-Hero,” “Lavender Haze,” “Maroon,” and “Bejeweled” seem like safe bets. She may intersperse them throughout the setlist or do a Midnights-focused segment.
Recent Hits
Expect fan favorites from Swift’s last two albums, folklore and evermore, like “cardigan,” “willow,” “exile,” and “champagne problems.” Crossover pop hits “ME!” with Brendon Urie and “You Need To Calm Down” from Lover will also likely make the cut.
Nostalgic Tracks
Swift will want to take fans on a nostalgia trip by performing older hits. Her second album Fearless will probably be represented with “Love Story” and “You Belong With Me.” Other possibilities include “Shake It Off,” “Blank Space,” “Bad Blood,” and “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.”
Deep Cuts & Rarities
Hardcore Swifties will hope she pulls out some deep album cuts like “All Too Well (10 Minute Version),” “Getaway Car,” and “Cruel Summer.” There is also a chance for rare songs or covers.
Mashups & Medleys
Swift has previously done mashups and medleys to incorporate more songs. For example, she could blend hits like “I Knew You Were Trouble” and “22.” A career retrospective medley of her biggest chart-toppers would excite the crowd.
The exact Eras Tour setlist remains to be seen, but will likely encompass hits from Swift’s entire discography and feature some unexpected surprises. Fans are eager to see which eras she will pay homage to during each stop of the tour.
What special guests could appear at the Eras Tour?
Taylor Swift has a history of inviting special guests to join her on tour. While no openers or collaborators have been announced yet for the Eras Tour, here are some artists who could potentially make surprise appearances:
Jack Antonoff
Producer and Bleachers frontman Jack Antonoff has been Swift’s most frequent collaborator since 2014’s 1989 album. Antonoff co-wrote and co-produced many Midnights tracks like “Anti-Hero.” He could join Swift onstage for those songs on guitar or piano.
Lana Del Rey
Lana Del Rey is featured on the Midnights track “Snow On The Beach.” The singers have talked about being long-time admirers of each other’s work. Del Rey joining Swift to perform their duet would thrill fans.
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran co-wrote the Red track “Run” and had a Number 1 hit collab with Swift entitled “The Joker And The Queen.” Sheeran could guest on either of those songs.
The Alchemist
Producer The Alchemist helped craft the Midnights song “Vigilante Shit.” His distinctive analog sound greatly shaped the track. The Alchemist assisting with a live version could give it an interesting edge.
Phoebe Bridgers
Phoebe Bridgers and Swift have been friends for years. Bridgers opened for some dates of Swift’s Reputation Tour in 2018, so Swift could invite Bridgers back as a special guest once again.
Kendrick Lamar
Swift and Kendrick Lamar have talked about collaborating for years. Lamar even sampled Swift’s song “Bad Blood” on his recent album. Swift’s tour would be the perfect place for them to finally team up on stage.
While there’s no guarantees when it comes to special guests, Swift’s Eras Tour offers plenty of exciting possibilities for surprises that will delight fans. Any artists who have worked with Swift or influenced her could have the chance to share the stage at some point!
