Taylor Swift has announced a massive 2023 stadium tour, which includes three May 2023 shows at Gillette Stadium.
Swift announced the Eras tour on “Good Morning America” on Nov. 1, thanking fans for supporting her new album, “Midnights,” which debuted Oct. 21.
Following a surge of interest, Swift announced on Nov. 4 that she would be adding eight more dates to the tour, including a third show at Gillette Stadium.
The Eras tour begins in March 2023 in Las Vegas, and visits Gillette Stadium in Foxborough on Friday, May 19, Saturday, May 20, and for the newly-added third show on Sunday, May 21.
UM. Looks like I’ll get to see more of your beautiful faces than previously expected… we’re adding 8 shows to the tour 😆https://t.co/KFuqvr0hhO pic.twitter.com/4LTYSnwKJO

Swift also announced a rotating cast of nine opening acts will join her on tour: Phoebe Bridgers, Haim, Paramore, Beabadoobee, Gayle, Girl in Red, Gracie Abrams, Muna, and Owenn.
Swift will be joined at the Gillette shows by Bridgers and Gayle.
Swift’s announcement comes on the heels of the singer making pop music history: On Monday, she became the first artist ever to claim all 10 spots in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time, with “Anti-Hero” holding the No. 1 spot. (Previous comparable successes include The Beatles and Drake holding the top five spots on the chart in 1964 and 2021, respectively.)
