A six-episode documentary series detailing Taylor Swift’s record-breaking Eras Tour has been announced, as well as a full concert film of the tour’s final performance.
“Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era” will premiere its first two episodes via Disney+ on December 12, with two further episodes releasing each of the subsequent two weeks.
December 12 will also see the arrival of “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The Final Show,” a full recording of the final Eras Tour performance in Vancouver, on December 8, 2024.
For Swifties, today’s announcement ends years of speculation that a documentary detailing the world-dominating Eras Tour was in production. The launch of a second Eras Tour film, meanwhile, will allow fans to watch the tour’s revamped setlist featured in shows held from May 2024 onwards, which included a major section featuring then-new album The Tortured Poets Department.
Much debate was had when Swift changed the content of the Eras Tour to include material from The Tortured Poets Department, her April 2024 album that released mid-tour and is widely seen as one of her most mature outings to date.
Some of those who’d seen The Eras tour already said they had missed out on the new material, while others yet to see the show said they would now miss out on some of Swift’s classic back catalogue, which she jettisoned to make room for the extra album within the tour’s mammoth three-and-a-half-hour runtime.
This recording of the tour’s final show will mean Swifties can now choose which version of the Eras Tour they want to watch, as the artist already released Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour back in 2023, also via Disney+, with the concerts’ original setlist. Swift performed 149 shows from March 2023 to Decemeber 2024, earning over $2 billon in revenue.
It’s been a busy week for Swift, who has just completed a media blitz after the launch of The Life of a Showgirl — the album she recorded while on the road during the Eras Tour itself. The pop banger-filled record arrived last week to enormous sales, though mixed critical reviews.
