“EXCUSE ME HI I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY,” Swift said in her post sharing the new dates, which include five performances at Wembley Stadium in London.
“I can’t wait to see so many of you on The Eras Tour next year at these new international dates! Visit TaylorSwift.com/tour for more information on your registrations, pre-sales and on-sales!!”
The Independent’s Kelsey Barnes gave Swift’s first show of her Eras tour a five-star review, writing: “Throughout the opening night of the tour, it frequently feels as though the audience is being caught up with Swift’s past, present and future.
“In the 44-song setlist that spans three hours and 15 minutes, she shows why the ‘era’ concept is so integral to who she is. Each chapter marks a specific shift in her artistry.”
