This summer the 33-year-old artist – a Brit, Grammy, and American Music Award-winner and 98-time Guinness World Record-breaker – has been performing at cities across the USA and later this summer she'll tour Latin America. Swift's Eras Tour is a tribute to all of her studio albums so far including her latest, Midnights (2022), and those that did not have a corresponding tour due to the Covid-19 pandemic: Lover (2019), Folklore (2020), and Evermore (2020). It is Swift's second all-stadium tour after the 2018 Reputation Stadium Tour.
It's not the first time Swift will have visited Wales. In 2018 she performed at the Radio 1 Biggest Weekend in Swansea where she won over the crowd with compliments and a barrage of her greatest hits. She told the audience: "Me and everybody on this stage – we’ve never been to Swansea before. So this is our first time here and we get here and it's packed and you guys are dancing and you're not just singing along but you're screaming along, which is the best!”
She went on: “You kind of took my breath away when I first came out here, like you guys are killing it. You look absolutely beautiful. You actually look like a level above beautiful.”
Swift's gig announcement comes on the opening night of Harry Styles' Love on Tour dates at the Principality Stadium. You can read the latest about those gigs here.
