Hot Swiftie summer is officially underway. After over a year pouring over set lists and constantly refreshing our feeds to hear news about the star, Swifties of Britain are finally getting to experience the Eras Tour live and in person. Her UK run of shows kicked off last week in Edinburgh – Liverpool is up next.
On her US leg, we saw the mega star perform through a torrential storm, dive head first into the stage, partake in a short-lived relationship with The 1975 frontman Matty Healy (that then inspired a whole new album), and bring her ex Taylor Lautner out to do a few backflips. We can only hope that the UK leg will be just as exciting and spectacular.
So make the friendship bracelets and pick your Era. Here’s everything we know about Taylor’s Eras tour in the UK.

How much were Taylor Swift tickets in the UK?
For the London and Edinburgh date presales, tickets ranged in price from around £59 (for partial or obstructed view tickets) to £110 for general admission standing. Front standing was priced at about £172, while seated tickets went up to £194.
What about VIP?
Some people with acute Swift-itis spent up to £799 on hospitality packages. Those get you things like premium seats, arrival via the hospitality entrance, premium dining options and other cool-but-expensive things.
What’s going on with resale tickets?
With tickets as precious as these, it’s no wonder that they’re already being resold at extortionate prices. Despite a four ticket limit per buyer, resale sites Viagogo and Stubhub already have tickets being resold. Some are listed for as high as £6,000.
Needless to say, you should be especially careful when buying anything on resale and only buy from official resale websites.
Who will be supporting Taylor in the UK?
For her European leg, Taylor is being supported by the one and only Paramore. The pop-punk band's nine-song setlist includes ‘Hard Times’, ‘Misery Business’, ‘Still Into You’ and ‘Ain’t It Fun’.
Additionally, in London T-Swizzle will be supported by Mette on June 21, Griff on June 22 and Benson Boone in June 23. You can find out more about her Wembley shows here.
What’s the current setlist for her Eras Tour?
The show is made up of an epic 44-song setlist divided up according to the singer’s ten ‘eras’, which each refer to one of her albums. Thanks to the release of an entire double album in the midst of her world tour, it looks a little different to her North America, South America and Australia setlists.

What’s been said about the tour so far?
Taylor Swift kickstarted her tour at Arizona’s State Farm Stadium in March, where she debuted a mega three-hour set playing songs from across her career.
The production includes 16 dancers and many set and costume changes, as well as a moment where the singer appears to ‘dive’ into the stage.
At her show in Arlington, Texas, Swift teased the crowd saying: ‘One thing we said about the Eras Tour: you think you can just go online, you think you can just scroll and know the setlist?
‘Let it be said about the Eras Tour, we’re tricksy. That’s what we are [and] we enjoy a good, healthy setlist hijinks.'
Translation? Expect the unexpected.
