Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour Comes To An End

The end of an era is upon us as Taylor Swift's record-breaking Eras Tour ends. This weekend, Swift will perform her final three shows at BC Place Stadium in Vancouver, wrapping up nearly two years of glittering performances that have captivated fans worldwide.

From its kickoff in March 2023, the Eras Tour has spanned five continents and nearly 150 shows, making history as the highest-grossing concert tour ever. Beyond financial success, the tour became a cultural phenomenon, credited by the Federal Reserve for boosting the U.S. economy and sparking fan movements that led to political action and scrutiny of Ticketmaster's practices.

Swift kept the excitement alive throughout the tour with re-releases of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) and 1989 (Taylor’s Version), along with her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department. These releases added fresh energy to the international leg of the tour in 2024.

For fans attending the final shows in Vancouver, here are some important details:

  • Doors open at 4:30 p.m., with showtime at 6:45 p.m. from Dec. 6-8.

  • Concertgoers should not line up before 3:30 p.m. or camp overnight.

  • BC Place has strict bag policies, allowing only small clutches or larger clear bags.

The Eras Tour’s expansive setlist celebrates Swift’s entire career, showcasing songs from her many studio albums. Swift herself has acknowledged the emotional weight of the tour's conclusion, saying, “This is the very first time I’ve ever acknowledged to myself and admitted that this tour is going to end in December.” Late last month, in Toronto, she briefly broke down at the thought of the tour’s impending end.

The Eras Tour wasn’t just a series of concerts—it was a global cultural moment that transformed fandom into a force of unity and excitement. As the curtains close on this iconic tour, fans celebrate a historic era of Taylor Swift's legacy that will undoubtedly inspire for years to come.
