After 18 months of Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour it officially came to an end on Sunday 8th December 2024 in Vancouver, BC.
This last year Taylor has been on the road for her Eras Tour while also dropping a brand new album, releasing her own concert film, concert book and managing to maintain a healthy relationship with boyfriend Travis Kelce.
The Eras Tour was the singer's sixth concert tour and was a celebration of every Taylor era that we have lived through - from her 'Lover' era to her 'Midnight' era the setlist has been truly remarkable, and so have her outfits.
The concert film of her tour premiered in October last year and in March it finally came to our homes, via Disney+. Taylor filmed her concert film at the SoFi Stadium in LA in August, but this wasn't her first show of the tour.
So when and where did Taylor officially begin her tour?

Performing to an audience of 69,000 fans, her opening night became a record-breaker, as it was the most attended female concert in US history, overtaking Madonna who had held this title for a whopping 36 years.
Her tour consisted of 149 shows in total across five continents and has seen the star perform in places like Singapore, Mexico and Brazil.
For this tour she has had the likes of Paramore, Haim, Phoebe Bridgers and Girl in Red, Gracie Abrams and 'Nonsense' singer Sabrina Carpenter opening her show.
