Taylor Swift-themed London events to get you in the Eras Tour spirit

Taylor Swift will return to London once again for five more shows starting on Thursday (August 15).

Swift’s global tour, which she started in 2023, has been an international phenomenon and sell-out. She is set to perform at Wembley Stadium five times in August — on the 15, 16, 17, 19 and 20.

But if you didn't get the highly sought-after tickets, fear not. You can still get your Swiftie fix by attending one of the main Taylor-themed events in London. 

When she was in the capital in June, events like Swiftie yoga, karaoke, trivia nights, and dedicated after-parties for after the concert.

Here are all the upcoming events that you need to know about this time around.

Taylor Swift-inspired yoga across London

Whether you’re preparing to party at an upcoming Eras show, or just like to stretch to the sound of Shake It Off, there’s a yoga class perfect for you.

Several yoga schools are hosting ‘Taylor-version’ classes in the run-up to the London shows.

Taylor Swift Dance Werkshop

For £25, you can also get a sweat on with a Swift-themed dance class with SOS Ruth D.

All dance levels are welcome and you can be assured that the day will be full of Taylor’s best songs.

Taylor Swift tours of London

She loves a London boy... and this new tour from GetYourGuide will take you deep into Taylor’s London. For £13.13, visitors can embark on a tour of the top Swiftie hotspots, including Denmark Street and The Black Dog in Vauxhall, as well as take part in a themed quiz at the end.

Taylor Swift-themed clubbing at Swiftogeddon

Swiftogeddon, a club night playing non-stop Swift music, is an option for the hardcore Swifties. Guests tend to dress according to a Taylor Swift theme (think replicas of tour outfits), and it's a whole night of fun. Venues are across the UK.

Dave Fawbert, who founded the event in 2019, said: “If you get out the front, sing along, and make yourself look a bit of an idiot, then people feel free to do the same.” Swiftogeddon events sell out quickly, so book early to avoid disappointment.

Taylor Swift candlelight and tribute concerts

These are concerts that play Swift's songs in an orchestral style. Some events are in beautiful candlelight venues, such as Southwark Cathedral.

Taylor Swift brunch at Ballie Ballerson

Ballie Ballerson in Shoreditch promises 90 minutes of bottomless drinks, two hours of ball-pit access, and pizza, for £35 per person every Saturday. Or, if you fancy heading to Wembley to soak up the atmosphere, Studio Five is offering Taylor-themed cocktails (along with a pre- and post-show menu) and a post-show singalong with which to while away the hours.

Taylor Swift after-party at Club de Fromage

The unofficial after-party returns for one night only on Saturday August 17th, offering another spot to close out your night after Eras, or join in on the fun if you didn’t get tickets. Early-bird tickets start from £8.30 here.

Taylor Swift silent disco at Waterstones.

If you want to dance without all the hustle and bustle of a club, Waterstones is organising a silent disco on Friday August 23.

In aid ofthe publication of Taylor Swift: The Stories Behind The Songs, join in on some Swiftie fun here.
