It will be a cruel summer for Australian fans of Taylor Swift as they wait until the dying days of the season to see the singer-songwriter grace stages in Sydney and Melbourne.
The pop superstar announced Australian dates for her Eras tour Wednesday morning, with five shows across Melbourne and Sydney in late February.
Swift will perform at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Friday 16 and Saturday 17 February 2024.
She will then travel to Sydney for three shows at Accor Stadium Friday 23, Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 February.
Pop’s next big thing, Sabrina Carpenter, will tour with Swift as a special guest in all Australian shows, which are presented by Crown and Frontier Touring.
