Taylor Swift Thanks Fans For Memorable Eras Tour
Upon closing her Eras Tour, Swift took the time to thank her fans who came out to support her.
“This is the most fun, joyful, exciting, intense, powerful and wonderful tour I have ever done, and that's all because of the way that you have treated it,” Swift is heard in a fan video via X.
A highlight from her Eras Tour was fans making friendship bracelets while referencing Swift's track “You're On Your Own, Kid” where she sings,“So, make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it,” she sings on the Midnights record.
“You've got all your traditions that you've created. Like, I wrote one line in a song that mentions ‘make the friendship bracelets,' and I show up to the first show of the Eras Tour, and you guys made friendship bracelets, your trading friendship bracelets, you're making friends, and now, I feel like, friendship bracelets, you've kinda made that idea synonymous with the Eras Tour. That's a pretty wild thing you can do — and that's just one of the things,” added Swift.
What's next for Swift is not written in stone but its rumored that the pop star might release a new album and tour dates in 2026.
