Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour kicked off in Houston with a sold-out show at the NRG Stadium, one of the singer’s favorite places to perform (“Chron”). During the concert, Swift mentioned her family connections to Houston. The three-night run in Houston attracted tens of thousands of fans, whom Swift lovingly dubbed “Swifties.” The Houston city hall was even lit in “Lavender Haze” in honor of the singer throughout the weekend (“ABC13”).
Swift took her fans on a three-hour journey through all her eras, beginning with her country music roots and culminating in her recent pop hits (“CultureMap Houston”). The concert featured stunning visual effects and elaborate sets, including a floating stage that allowed Swift to fly over the audience while performing her hit song “Shake It Off” (“Houston Press”).
The Eras Tour merch truck also attracted thousands of fans who braved long lines for a chance to purchase exclusive Taylor Swift merchandise (“Chron”). Despite the massive turnout, ticket prices for Swift’s Houston concerts dropped almost 50% (“New York Post”).
However, fans were warned to be wary of scammers targeting the concert (“KHOU”). Several streets around the NRG Stadium were closed for the concerts (“KHOU Traffic Alert”).
