Taylor Swift has officially closed one of the most iconic chapters of her career.

The tour ended with three unforgettable nights at BC Place in Vancouver, Canada—an epic finale for a global tour that spanned continents and left a lasting impact on both the music industry and pop culture.

The Eras Tour kicked off on March 17, 2023, in Glendale, Arizona, taking Swift across North America, Europe, and Asia in what became a musical and emotional journey for both the singer and her fans.

Around 10 million people attended The Eras Tour, generating nearly $1.9 billion in revenue, making it the most successful tour in history. And let’s not forget the iconic light-up bracelets.
