Taylor Swift Rides High Off Record-Shattering Australian Tour Stops Taylor Swift is riding the natural performer's high after a history-making run of Australian Eras Tour dates capped with four electrifying shows in Sydney. Over 96,000 screaming fans packed each night of Swift's three Melbourne concerts alone - her biggest single crowds yet. But breaking her own attendance benchmarks by playing Sydney's Accor Stadium four times still left Swift emotional and filled with gratitude. In an effusive Instagram post, Swift thanked the "endless magical moments" shared with Aussie "Swifties" the last two weekends. She promised to forever cherish touring firsts like duetting with support act Sabrina Carpenter, igniting feverish singalongs, and channeling chaotic mashup energy. Indeed, Carpenter's impromptu joining of Swift for a White Horse/Coney Island mashup won raves after bad weather delayed Friday's show and canceled Carpenter's opening. Their smiling embrace onstage after that white horse-riding 'princess' duet with her pop idol symbolized this entire Australian tour's synergistic euphoria.
Emotions ran high for Swift's famous friends flooding the VIP boxes too. On opening night, boyfriend Travis Kelce cheered in handcrafted friendship bracelets. The next evening, rumored former Swift rival Katy Perry sang along to apparent callout track Bad Blood backstage before posting a heartwarming "old friends shine" selfie with Taylor.
Even through tears bidding Sydney and 288,000 Australian fans farewell, Swift's message remains clear - the Eras Tour's record-setting moments Down Under will live forever in her heart. And with six Singapore shows next on the docket before arriving stateside in May, Swift's global pop domination shows no signs of slowing down in 2023. The hits and hugs keep coming by the millions.
