Calling all Swifties! If you couldn't nab concert tickets, this is the next best thing to living your 'wildest dreams'. The Queen is releasing a once-in-a-lifetime concert film of her record-breaking Eras Tour, which will premiere in more than 100 countries worldwide – including in Melbourne – on Friday, October 13, 2023. Thank god there's a better way than watching the concert vicariously through Instagram.
It comes as no surprise that Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour is set to make history as the highest-grossing concert film of all time, dethroning Justin Bieber’s Never Say Never. More than $300,000 worth of tickets were snapped up within the first 12 hours after their release just this week. For perspective, that’s three times the first-day pre-sales of Avatar: The Way of Water, which was the highest-grossing film of 2022.
So, what can we expect from the world’s biggest pop superstar’s fourth concert film? Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour was recorded over the first three nights that she played at SoFi stadium in California in August. Although the film’s 165-minute run time isn’t quite long enough to play her full 44-song set list that makes up her three hour live show, it is sure to include snippets of all Tay Tay’s hottest fits and chart-topping hits.
Taylor Swifts: The Eras Tour is directed by Sam Wrench, who has previously directed concert films for fellow music royals, Billie Eilish and Lizzo. Tickets are just $19.89 (very fitting) and we’d recommend some swift action to snag your seat. PS: Taylor Swift merch and friendship bracelets are strongly encouraged on the night.
