(To Quoc) - The Eras Tour ended on December 8, marking a bittersweet moment for Taylor Swift fans.
According to AP, after more than 150 performances across 5 continents in nearly two years, the global phenomenon called "Taylor Swift's Eras Tour" is coming to an end.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is a concert series celebrating different musical eras of Taylor Swift's career. The final leg will take place in North America, with the final date being December 8, 2024 in Canada.
The tour is a feat that Swift launched in March 2023 and concluded on December 8 in Vancouver, Canada. The pop star’s tours have broken records for sales and attendance, creating an economic boom that even the Federal Reserve has taken note of.
But for many who attended the concerts and millions more who watched fan livestreams, the tour became a beacon of joy, an opportunity not only to appreciate Swift's massive musical career but also to celebrate the years-long journey her fans have been on with her.
Enjoy the rest of your time
“Right now, we have this special time to be together, talk about the show, and hang out,” said Tess Bohne, a stay-at-home mom of three who became a content creator who livestreams Swift concerts.
Bohne, who has earned the title of “livestream queen” in the Swiftie community, also said she often engages with fans to host watch parties at her home for Eras concerts live with her closest friends. People have also formed lasting friendships as they binge-watch the show together from afar.
Swift has long been known for leaving Easter eggs for her fans to identify and decipher, a habit that quickly became popular throughout the tour as eagle-eyed fans began to parse the meaning of the singer's outfits, surprise songs, and subtle lyric swaps.
The buzz has gotten so big that multiple mobile apps have been launched so fans can guess and keep track of all the different changes. There's even a game that offers prizes to people who correctly predict various details of a show, including the color of the guitar Swift uses when playing "Lover."
Record-breaking tour
Swift kicked off the Eras tour in Glendale, Arizona – the first of many sold-out stadiums as she toured first in the US and then South America, Asia, the UK and Canada.

Along the way, Swift was named Time magazine's Person of the Year. Apple Music named her artist of the year and Spotify revealed she was the most-streamed artist of 2023 globally. She released a concert film that topped the box office.
In 2010, Taylor Swift officially released her third studio album, Speak Now, released by Big Machine Records. 1989 is the fifth studio album of 25-year-old "country music princess" Taylor Swift, released in 2014.
"I think it's perfect in this era that someone like Taylor can inspire and give hope through music. And Swift has come a long way. She's been so inspirational with women and equality. Really, just her work ethic is relentless," said Ralph Jaccodine, an assistant professor at Berklee College of Music and a former concert promoter who has worked with Bruce Springsteen and others.
Even the term "Swift era" has become popular. Fans and observers often use the term to explain a period of salience and transition.
"I think this tour really cemented Swift's legendary status. Whether you like her music or not, whether you think she's talented or not, the numbers really speak for themselves. The tour broke so many records and became a global phenomenon for so long that it made me think about how much of a lasting impact this singer has," said Kayla Wong, an influencer who runs the popular Swift Instagram account @headfirstfearless.
Along the way, Swift's relationship with her fans has grown stronger through touring. And over the past two years, Swift's fan base has continued to welcome new audiences.
"I feel like years ago, we were all the same age and fans for the same reason. Now Swift's fan community comes from all backgrounds, all ages, all different reasons for following her in the first place," Mr. Wong emphasized./.
