Taylor Swift thrilled Miami with three sold out concerts in Hard Rock Stadium this weekend. Swifts Eras-tour kicked off its final leg in the USA two months after a record setting series of five shows at the massive Wembley stadium in London with more than 350.000 fans attending.Now fifteen more dates will follow before Eras concludes December 8 in Vancouver, Canada.
In front of 65.000 fans and in the middle of pouring rain Taylor Swift had a lot of surprises for her fans in Florida.
The biggest surprise wer her new outfits:
Taylor Swift debuted four, new outfits during her Eras Tour concert in Miami, Florida on Friday.
To the excitement of around 61,000 concertgoers at the Hard Rock Stadium, the superstar, 34, kicked off the final leg of her blockbuster world tour with exciting, new costume changes.
Eliciting energized cheers from the audience, she showcased four never-before-seen, captivating looks for her Fearless, Reputation and acoustic sets as well as her performance of Anti-Hero .
In previous shows, she sported a fan-favorite, metallic gold minidress with layered tasseled details that twinkled as she performed.
However, this time, she stepped out in an entirely new dress.
Teamed with it, she sported matching, sequin-covered riding boots and, at one point, pulled out her rhinestone-covered guitar as she stunned both vocally and in her silver garb.
For her surprise song set, Swift took the stage in a sleeveless red and teal ombré dress.
The glamorous garment featured a waterfall silhouette that cascaded down her body while she performed a mashup of Tim McGraw from her debut album and Timeless from Speak Now.
And for her Reputation set, she changed into a brand new bodysuit with gold snakes rather than her usual red costume.
She slipped into a figure-hugging, black jumpsuit with an asymmetrical sleeve and a single pant-leg similar to her previous costume
In lieu of the scarlet red snakes, which matched her Reputation set microphone, the jumpsuit was ornate with lustrous gold serpents wrapped around her body.
To close out the star-studded songfest, she debuted a new, lavender shirt dress covered in dazzling, intricate beading while performing Anti-Hero from her Midnights set.
During her Miami stop’s Reputation set, the 14-time Grammy winner emerged in a new Roberto Cavalli catsuit, making this the last original Eras Tour look to be replaced with a new outfit.
The one-long-leg ensemble featured intertwining snakes, per concert photos and a USA Today reporter’s Instagram video. However, this bodysuit differed from the previous look, with gold details rather than red. Bodysuits have been a favorite look for Swift throughout her Reputation Stadium Tour.
But the differences didn’t stop there. On the back of the new catsuit, one snake made the shape of the number two, leading fans to speculate that Reputation (Taylor’s Version) could be coming soon.
Since the Swift Cavalli-snake-costume-premiere in Miami the internet is going wild with speculations that the release of Taylors new version of her album „Reputation“ will follow this last leg of the Eras tour already in December – perfect timed for Christmas.
On Friday, Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour starts a new round of US concerts at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens for three sold-out nights. This is the first time Swift will perform in the Miami area since her 2018 “Reputation” tour, also at Hard Rock. All 200.000 tickets for the three Miami concerts are already sold out.
After Miami there will follow three concerts in the Superdome of New Orleans (with more than 100.000 fans) and three more shows in Indianapolis with also more than 100.000 Swifties in attendance.
After the nine US-concerts there will follow a dozen concerts in Canada before Swift calls it quit and goes to an extensive Christmas break with her boyfriend Travis Kelce – maybe even planning her secret marriage during the holiday break
Taylor Swift-fans from all over the USA will come to Miami this weekend. Out of the 200.000 fans more than 100.000 will be coming from other states than Florida, selling out hotels, flights and restaurants in Miami and bringing more than 100 million in gross income to Florida.
The Taylor Swift concerts come amid a lot of turmoil: First the hurricane Milton was bringing the Swift concerts to the brink of cancellation. Numerous fans asked Swift to cancel her shows out of respect to the Hurricane-victims.
Swift donated more than 5 million dollars to the victims of hurricanes Helene and Milton and will pay tribute to the hurricane victims during her show.
There are also terror threats against the Swift-Eras-tour from the start, cumulating even in a concert cancellation in Vienna after an IS-terrorist wanted to bomb the stadium during the first Swift-show in Vienna.
Since then the terror threats for alle Swift concerts are imminent. That results in extremely high security measures especially at the first concerts in Miami.
Fans should expect multiple security check points in order to enter the concert. Your ticket will be scanned more than once to enter the stadium, either as you enter the property in a vehicle with a prepaid parking pass or as a pedestrian if you arrive via ride share or another method of transportation.
Experts think that fans will need more than an hour to enter the stadium.
