Pop superstar Taylor Swift concluded her European Eras Tour with a record-breaking performance at Wembley Stadium last night. The show marked the 131st date of her two-year tour and her eighth concert at the iconic venue, surpassing Michael Jackson’s previous record.
“You just made me the first solo artist to ever play Wembley eight times in a single tour,” she told fans. “We will never, ever be able to thank you enough for it.”
Swift’s Wembley shows were a highlight of her European tour, drawing in massive crowds and generating significant economic impact. In the UK alone, she played to nearly 1.2 million people, contributing an estimated £1 billion to the country’s economy.
Joined by special guests Florence + The Machine and Bleachers frontman Jack Antonoff, Swift treated fans to a night of unforgettable music, including the premiere of a new music video and a live debut of her heartfelt song “So Long, London.”
Swift’s Eras Tour has been a global phenomenon, captivating audiences with its innovative stage design, elaborate costumes, and hit-filled setlist. Her record-breaking performances at Wembley Stadium will go down in history.
The London dates marked a high point, with Swift playing there more times than any other city on her itinerary.
“I’ve always loved playing for you here in London, but this is the best,” she said during Tuesday’s finale.
“I’ve never had it this good before. I’ve never had a crowd that’s so generous.
“You seem to have memorised every single lyric of every single song, and that’s a dream come true.”
