Swift last toured Australia in 2018 in support of her sixth album, Reputation. Since then, she’s released four more studio albums: 2019’s Lover, the folk-influenced Folklore and Evermore in 2020, and last year’s Midnights. She’s also released two new versions of older albums as part of ongoing re-recording project sparked by the 2019 dispute over her master recordings. Fearless (Taylor’s Version) and Red (Taylor’s Version) were both released in 2021. Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) will be released next month.

The Eras world tour began in North America in March this year, and will stretch into late August before dates in Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo in November. On each date of the tour, Swift has travelled back throughout her catalogue, with the shows serving as a tribute to all of Swift’s studio albums thus far. The retrospective shows feature 44-song setlists, typically reaching as far back as 2008’s Fearless and as recent as last year’s Midnights.

Attempts by fans to buy tickets for the North American leg of the tour sparked significant service failures, customer delays and other issues on Ticketmaster when they went on sale through the ticketing platform.
