It is Taylor Swift’s birthday, and the megastar has plenty of milestones to celebrate. With the conclusion of her record-breaking Eras Tour—which grossed an astounding $2.1 billion—Swift is riding high. Additionally, her best friend recently got engaged (and Taylor humorously claimed dibs on being the flower girl), and she was named to Forbes’ list of the 100 most powerful women. December has certainly been a whirlwind for the pop icon.
But as fans speculate about what’s next for Taylor, there’s also curiosity about how she’ll spend her special day. Could it be at her luxurious Rhode Island home, famously called “Holiday House”?
So far, Swift has not publicly celebrated a birthday at her Watch Hill mansion. Instead, she seems to reserve her Rhode Island retreat for summertime festivities. While she threw a star-studded Fourth of July bash and hosted a birthday party for Blake Lively there this past summer—with attendees like Travis Kelce, Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, Ryan Reynolds, and Bradley Cooper—her winter birthdays have been celebrated elsewhere. Last year, she marked the occasion in New York City, and the year before, in New Orleans.
A Look at Taylor Swift’s Rhode Island Mansion
Taylor Swift purchased the historic Watch Hill mansion in 2013 for $17.75 million. The estate later inspired her song “The Last Great American Dynasty” from the Folklore album. The track chronicles the life of the mansion’s previous owner, Rebekah Harkness, a socialite known for her extravagant lifestyle. From cleaning a pool with Dom Pérignon to flying in friends for elaborate parties, Harkness’ adventures echo the high-profile gatherings Swift now hosts in the same house.
While the exact location of Swift’s birthday celebration remains a mystery, fans will no doubt keep an eye out for any Easter eggs hinting at her next move.
