March 15, 202411 Mins Read


Summary

  • Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour movie captures the spectacle and nostalgia of her record-breaking concert series, spanning her 18-year career.
  • Featuring over 40 songs, the film offers three versions with varying setlists, showcasing Swift’s journey through her 10-album musical past and present.
  • Each version of the concert movie, available in theaters, VOD, and Disney+, highlights different tracks while reaffirming Swift’s status as a global pop icon.



Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour movie takes the singer-songwriter’s record-breaking concert series and brings it to the big and small screens, with over 40 songs from her 18-year career included on the setlist. There are now three versions of The Eras Tour movie: October 2023’s theatrical release, December 2023’s VOD release, and March 2024’s Disney+ streaming release. Unlike its live event counterpart, each version of The Eras Tour movie leaves a few of Swift’s biggest songs on the cutting room floor. Even so, it’s not enough to incite any “Bad Blood” among fans; the concert movie is packed with all the spectacle, nostalgia, and thrills of Swift’s billion dollar-earning Eras Tour.


The theatrical version of Swift’s staggering three-hour performance clocks in at around 169 minutes, with the Disney+ streaming version clocking at the full three and a half hours. A journey through Taylor Swift’s 10-album musical past and present, The Eras Tour movie fulfills every fan’s “Wildest Dreams.” Though songs from every album are featured on the movie’s setlist, each version of the concert film has a different number of tracks cut for time-sensitive issues. The Eras Tour movie is the cherry on top of an ultra-successful tour for Taylor Swift — and every song in the film reiterates that she’s not just a beloved musician, but a global pop icon.

49 Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince

Album/Era: Lover

Taylor Swift Eras Tour Miss Americana

The opening song on Swift’s The Eras Tour movie, “Miss Americana & the Heartbreak Prince” comes from Swift’s seventh studio album, Lover. With a lyric that boasts, “It’s you and me, that’s my whole world” and a decidedly upbeat energy, it’s hard to argue with this song’s position as the concert opener. Plus, the Lover era’s positioning allows Swift to pay proper homage to the 2020 concert tour that never happened.


48 Cruel Summer

Album/Era: Lover

Taylor Swift performs "Cruel Summer" in The Eras Tour concert movie.

One of her biggest releases in recent years, “Cruel Summer” also comes from Taylor Swift’s seventh studio album, Lover. The chart-topping radio hit is not only easy to sing along to, with an incredibly catchy chorus that every audience member is sure to know, but it’s also the first narrative-driven track on the Eras Tour setlist.


47 The Man

Album/Era: Lover

Taylor Swift Eras Tour The Man

After enjoying much-deserved applause from the audience at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium, Swift playfully acknowledges that all the adoration might just go to her head. The cheers make her feel like “The Man,” she says, before launching into the Lover track of the same name. A fun bit of staging sees the singer kicking her bedazzled boots up in an office cubicle, all while rocking a shiny silver blazer that’s an ode to Taylor Swift’s iconic music video for “The Man.”

The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version)
, which is the most complete version of the concert film, is available to stream exclusively on Disney+. The entire setlist is available to stream through music platforms like Spotify and Apple Music.


46 You Need To Calm Down

Album/Era: Lover

Taylor Swift Eras Tour You Need to Calm Down

The penultimate song off of Lover, “You Need to Calm Down” is a divisive one. Like so many of Swift’s singles, it feels a bit disconnected from the rest of the album (though it’s certainly a marked improvement over “ME!”). Even so, there’s no denying that the song makes for a great live performance. With a catchy chorus and plenty of opportunities for Swift to pull some theatrical, it’s a welcome addition to the setlist.

45 Lover

Album/Era: Lover


To close out the Lover era in the theatrical and VOD films, Swift plays the album’s title song on an appropriately pink guitar. The twangs of the sweet, slow-burn love song are a welcome break from the blood-pumping tracks that opened the concert. Not to mention, “Lover” allows Swift to transition pretty seamlessly into another acoustic guitar-driven era — Fearless.

How To Watch Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour

Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour gives people new ways to experience Taylor Swift’s concert. Here is how to watch the movie in theaters or on streaming.

44 The Archer (Taylor’s Version)

Album/Era: Lover

Originally cut from the box office record-smashing theatrical version of The Eras Tour movie, the hit Lover song “The Archer” is included in the setlist in the Disney+ streaming version of the concert film. Rather than the titular track, Disney+’s The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version) sees “The Archer” close out the Lover era before moving into Fearless.

43 Fearless

Album/Era: Fearless

Taylor Swift plays guitar while smiling during the "Fearless" in The Eras Tour concert movie.

After a quick costume change, Swift bounces back on stage wearing a gold-and-silver dress and strumming a sparkly silver guitar, all of which recalls the singer’s Fearless era. Swift opens the shorter chapter in the show with the title track, inviting long-time Swifties to belt out the radio hit’s catchy chorus alongside her.


42 You Belong With Me

Album/Era: Fearless

Taylor Swift Eras Tour You Belong

It’s anything but a “typical Tuesday” night when fans get to sing along with Taylor Swift to her classic “You Belong With Me.” For those who may not have been lucky enough to snag a seat in the bleachers (or elsewhere) on the Eras Tour, Swift makes moviegoers feel like proper cheer captains while singing this one — a song that’s sure to put a smile on every viewer’s face.

41 Love Story

Album/Era: Fearless

Taylor Swift Eras Tour Love Story


Another early career-defining hit, “Love Story” consumed the airwaves upon its release, becoming a love-it-or-hate-it track for many. With its very country feel, the song captures the feeling of first love — and the desire to turn it into a fairy tale — perfectly. Watching Swift perform it all these years later, with hindsight and wisdom, is even more exciting.

40 Willow

Album/Era: Evermore

Willow during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour

After closing out the Fearless era, Swift returns to the stage with a completely different vibe. To sell “willow,” the lead single off her ninth studio album, evermore, Swift dresses in a witchy green cloak, surrounded by her coven of orb-toting witches. The backdrop of mist-laden pine trees only furthers this song’s remarkable visuals, making “willow” a truly stand-out moment.

How Much Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour Has Made At The Box Office (& How Much It Cost)

Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour could be a record-breaking box office hit. Here is how much it is expected to earn and how much it cost to make.

39 Marjorie

Album/Era: Evermore

Taylor Swift performs "Majorie" during the Evermore era in The Eras Tour concert movie.

While not a chart-topper, “Marjorie” is one of Swift’s most deeply personal songs — and a clear fan-favorite track. An ode to her late grandmother, “Marjorie” sees the singer giving one of her most emotional performances of the night, which is made all the more intimate by the fact that the SoFi audience holds their lit phones high, like candles, and sways to the melancholy tune.


38 Champagne Problems

Album/Era: Evermore

The evermore era is full of memorable moments, and none of them miss the mark. After singing solo in the glow of the audience’s lights during “Marjorie,” Swift sits down at a moss-covered piano for one of the album’s most beloved tracks, “champagne problems.” While the artist is known for her mastery of a good bridge, the build and lyrics of “champagne problems” make for one of the most fun tracks for Swifties to belt out either alone or together.

37 Tolerate It

Album/Era: Evermore

Taylor Swift Eras Tour Tolerate It


To close out the evermore era, Swift returns to the heavy staging of “willow,” but strips things down a bit. Instead of playing in a witchy forest, Swift sings the heart-wrenching “tolerate it” to a soon-to-be ex-partner. Sitting across from him at a long dinner table, Swift captures the emotional distance of the song perfectly — and the drama of her swiping items off the furniture and then crawling toward the other actor is just great.

36 … Ready For It?

Album/Era: Reputation

Taylor Swift smiles while singing "...Read For It?" during the Reputation era in The Eras Tour concert movie.

There’s simply no other way to open the Reputation era. “…Ready For It?” will have viewers standing up in the theater chanting, “let the games begin!” as if Swift hasn’t already been playing for over an hour. While Reputation received mixed reactions upon its release, there’s no doubt that some of its songs were made for a stadium tour.


35 Delicate

Album/Era: Reputation

Taylor Swift Eras Tour delicate

One of Swift’s most beloved songs off of Reputation, her sixth studio album, “Delicate” is about a burgeoning relationship — one that Swift wants to start quickly, but without scaring off her partner-to-be. The track perfectly captures that flutter of anticipation and excitement, and it’s hard not to grin while singing along with Swift.

34 Don’t Blame Me

Album/Era: Reputation


Lord, save me, my drug is my baby/ I’ll be usin’ for the rest of my life,” Swift belts in “Don’t Blame Me,” the penultimate song of the Reputation era. Again, this is one of those tracks that was written to be sung live in front of a massive audience and finds Swift digging deep to provide a vocally charged performance.

33 Look What You Made Me Do

Album/Era: Reputation

Taylor Swift Eras Tour look what you made me do

The last song in the Reputation era is one of the highlights of Taylor Swift’s: The Eras Tour movie. “Look What You Made Me Do,” the lead single off the album, sees Swift singing about her new self — while her past self bang on glass cages. It’s an incredibly fun trip through the eras of Taylor Swift’s career (and her most memorable looks) and the backup dancers help make this number soar.


32 Enchanted

Album/Era: Speak Now

Taylor Swift performs "Enchanted" in The Eras Tour concert movie.

The only song Swift delivers from the Speak Now era in the theatrical version, “Enchanted” is, simply put, an enchanting performance. With purple lighting and a periwinkle princess-like dress, Swift sings the beautiful 2010 song in one of the concert’s softer moments. It’s a much-needed comedown that’s perfectly sandwiched between Reputation and Red.

31 Long Live (Taylor’s Version)

Album/Era: Speak Now

Taylor Swift and her band perform "Long Live" in The Eras Tour movie on Disney+.


Among the most disappointing song omissions from the theatrical version of The Eras Tour movie was her Speak Now track “Long Live.” While the song played over The Eras Tour movie’s closing credits, her performance in concert was enthralling. The song is finally restored to the setlist in the Disney+ version of The Eras Tour movie, where it plays directly after “Enchanted” in her Speak Now era.

30 22

Album/Era: Red

Taylor Swift performs "22" during the Red era in The Eras Tour concert movie.

Swift kicks off the Red era with her chart-topping “22” — and, for those in the audience, it really will “feel like the perfect night.” An infectious track, “22” sees Swift donning her iconic black bowler cap as well as a white T-shirt that references one of the song’s more funny moments.
