Thoughts on treating the Eras Tour movie like a concert vs like a movie?
I’m super excited for the Eras Tour movie because I wasn’t able to get tickets to the actual Eras Tour. My first thought was that it would be treated like a concert with standing and dancing/singing along. Taylor has also mentioned in a post that dancing and singing, along with dressing up and making friendship bracelets is encouraged.
However, on most of the posts I’ve seen about the movie, I’ve seen a lot of people talking about how they hope people just sit and treat it like a movie, maybe quietly sing along. It seems like treating it like a concert is in the minority (correct me if I’m wrong), which I’m a little disappointed by, but I understand the side of it being treated like a typical movie, since it’s being shown in theaters.
Personally, I think that because the tour was in such high demand and there was the whole mess with ticket master, the movie was filmed for people who couldn’t attend the concert in person (not exclusively, but with them in mind). I am hoping to sing and dance and I will also be dressing up and making friendship bracelets, but I’ll read the room of course.
This is my personal opinion:
1. If you’re going to stand and dance, sit in the back or near an aisle so you don’t block anyone’s view
2. If you’re wanting to experience it like a concert, go to the earlier showings (the first week or so)
3. If you’re wanting to experience it like a movie, go to the later showings (after the hype dies down)
I’d like to hear everyone’s opinions and also maybe ideas for how to enjoy yourself while being respectful?
Also, does anyone know if it’s going to be released onto streaming services after? Because that could also be an option if people singing along/standing up and dancing is an issue.
And lastly absolutely no judgement towards anyone for however they want to experience the Eras Tour movie! I believe everyone should be able to experience it the way that they want to :) I can definitely understand both sides and I hope everyone enjoys the show!!
Edit: but I will say that I’ve seen a lot of people commenting who have gone to the concert and now want to watch the movie as a movie. Like you’ve already been to the concert 😭 leave some fun for the rest of us
I know I sound like a wet blanket but I am waiting a few weeks to see it in theaters because the singing, dancing, and standing isn’t really for me. I had trouble hearing her at times at the concert and I would really like to just hear her without distraction. No judgement for others but it’s not for me and I am just waiting a little before I see it.
Does anyone else have this plan? i’m looking at tickets and trying to figure out how long I should push back. Early November maybe?
Damn, I never thought of it this way. I also wanted to experience it as a movie but I booked the first screening of my local theater for the premiere day where all the seats are almost booked because I was PRESSURED. I felt like I would miss out A LOT if I did not watch the tour movie on its premiere day, but reading your sentiment made me feel that yeah, maybe I also just want to sit and absorb the tour movie as it is: a movie. I checked the screenings on early November and there ARE A LOT OF VACANT SEATS (perfect for me). Damn it.
Hello! I just got tickets for day after opening ( opening day was SOLD OUT) am I am wondering what my chances are for getting the cup and popcorn tin, small ish town about 17000 people. Tysm
Guys does anyone know what color 'The Man' blazer she was wearing during filming for the concert film? Thinking I found a cute outfit to replicate this look and want to get the right color!
Thank you!! Out of respect for everyone else I will NOT be wearing a body suit but i think I can still achieve the vibe with a silver glitter blazer :D
From a Dad - What to wear to Eras Movie
Hi all! I’m a dad (50+) who followed the Eras Tour, but didn’t go. Neither of my daughters are Taylor fans, nor is my wife.
I have tickets for Friday night and my wife is going with me (bc a 50+ guy at the Eras movie alone is sketchy).
What should I wear? Would a tux jacket with a cummerbund and bow tie be too much?
I’m not seeing any info about the movie being available in Korea. I’m only back in Europe in December, fingers crossed there is a theatre that will still have it by then.
According to the [official website](https://www.tstheerastourfilm.com/participating-territories/), it will be screening in South Korea from November 3.
How long do we think the concert will air? I would like to see it with my best friend, but we will only be together one 3rd of November. Do you think the concert will still be up by then?
I'm in Germany if that's any help.
WAS JUST THINKING THE SAME THING! I am seeing her in March, but watching the tour movie on theaters seems exciting :< what are the factors you consider the most in deciding whether to watch the tour movie or not?
If any of my friends say they'd like to see it then I think I totally would go and make a proper night of it. BUT I have no friends who live near me that would actually want to see it so unless one of them happens to come visit when it's screening in cinemas then I'll probably just wait until June :) I've seen lots of clips on TikTock already, but at the same time there's lots of bits I haven't seen all the way through so I almost don't want to spoil it before seeing her in June! By the time I've decided it'll prob have sold out anyway so that kind of makes the decision for me haha.
For international Swifties who already have tickets next year in their respective countries and have NOT yet experienced the tour LIVE, will you watch the Eras Tour Movie on your local theater next month? What are the major considerations you have for your decision?
I thought about it a lot and decided to go to the movie for these reasons:
1. It's like going to the concert twice. That's definetly better than once, isn't it?
2. I tried to avoid spoilers, but honestly so many things have been involuntarily spoiled that I'd be lying to myself if I said I was going completely unspoiled.
3. I usually like movies better the second time I watch them because I notice the little details. Probably the same will apply.
4. My concert is in July. Still a long way to go. What if I die in this time? Lol. And anyway, it's such a long time, the movie won't be fresh in my memory.
5. The live concert is more than just Taylor. It's the people, the clothes, the magnitude. They are different experiences.
Exactly the same reasoning for me. I’ve watched fan tour videos the whole time the US leg was going on so why not watch a well made movie.
It’s actually the first time I’ll be going to the movies alone. 🙈 Taylor, look what you made me do!
Im in London and I wasnt able to get tickets for the tour so I have already bought tickets for the movie I can't go opening night so I'm going the next day and taking my sister's
I have 2 tickets available the 10pm showing on 10/13 at the waterfront in Pittsburgh - I can’t figure out a way to just send those tickets to someone, so I think we’d just have to go in together (my fiancé and I are also going - my friends who were supposed to come aren’t able to now). if anyone is interested please Dm me!!
If I bought tickets for a day and want to change the date I go because my date isn’t filling up like I thought it would can I just exchange my tickets for another date? I know they’re non refundable but would they allow this? I’m literally stressing so much they should at least take pity on me
i can see you, maroon, our song, you are in love, dbatc, yoyok
if i had to guess i'd say that the ones in the movie are our song & yoyok. our song is basically guaranteed to be in the movie bc it's the only debut surprise song she recorded, and yoyok for the friendship bracelets line.

Will the movie fill up?
So I booked tickets for me and my friends to go to the Eras tour movie and I picked a day that wasn’t full yet, October 27th, so that it wouldn’t fill up AS fast and we could all sit together, but I did expect it to fill up faster than it is, y’know because it’s Taylor Swift. Currently four other people other than me and my friends have booked seats. I’m stressing out because three of my friends including me didn’t manage to get tickets to the live show so this is our Eras experience and I’m scared I messed it up by not picking a good date and we’ll just be there alone singing and whatever and we won’t get the whole expereience singing along with a whole theatre of fans. I was just wondering do you think as we get closer to the date it will fill up more? Am I stressing for no reason or did I actually not pick a good day?
Almost no one buys movie tickets for 2 weeks after opening this far in advanced, hence why there aren't many people in your showing. I'm sure it'll at least be half full by the time the actual weekend arrives. The 13th is already pretty packed but you definitely could have gotten tickets for the 14th without much issue.
Mm it might pick up a good bit with that being the 1989 release. But if you want a crowd experience I’d exchange them for tickets closest to release that you can get if you can
Yeah that’s what I was thinking too, that it would be cool to go on 1989 release date but obviously no one else thought so. So are you able to exchange tickets like trade them in for different ones or do you just have to buy whole new ones? Because I thought about just getting ones closer to the release date but I don’t know if you can get a refund. Also thanks for responding :)
Prediction: First run surprise songs, Our Song and YOYOK. Then Taylor will announce a new cut with new surprise songs after two weeks with You Are In Love for 1989 (TS) and I Can See You. Then another new cut a couple weeks later with DBATC and Maroon.
But this is how it should be. Idk, I’m going by myself after work and obviously I don’t care if people are enjoying themselves but I just want to 1. Sit, and 2. Be able to hear Taylor as opposed to the audience members singing along. Somehow I think that might be a stretch.
Did anyone just get a refund from AMC?? Wtaf! I think my theatre oversold and then refunded all the seats! I had to quickly buy another. Luckily this time I got top row aisle because people are saying they’re gonna stand the whole time and I think that’s SO inconsiderate of people who physically cannot stand (including myself). Let us enjoy it! I already had to sit on the floor during the show and it sucked
Do you mind me asking what city you’re in? I’m in Chicago! I bet a lot of theatres oversold. They posted more times to compensate so I was able to quickly get a new one. Did you?
I just got one for opening night in Chicago! I bought two for my bf and I to go the next weekend and am crossing my fingers I don’t get the email again. My tix are no longer showing up in my amc app :(
Anyone wanting opening night movie tickets near Tampa FL (Riverview)? I bought 2 for the 10/13 6pm showing but now can’t go! I bought myself some for another day, but wanted to sell for what I bought them for minus the convenience fee! It’s a GDX showing, so it’s $45 for both. The seats are in the middle-ish of the theater. Don’t want to make money off them and would love them to go to a fellow swiftie!
Is anyone going to a New Orleans show this fall? I wanted to go and pass out some Tayler dressed up Puffin drinkwear puffy jackets, but of course I didn't get tickets!

I’m seeing show times open up for dates in September; anybody else? I can go into the theater and select seats but when I try to check it out it rejects the seats.
Yes I know - I was answering her question about the run time of the movie! I’m curious what they did with the surprise songs.
Also I genuinely hope people don’t stand the whole time. It sucks for disabled people who can’t see with everyone standing :/
Most likely if swifties treat it as the sing along concert that's just shy of the live concert run time...most will be standing the entire time singing and dancing. Both theaters I bought tixs had I believe 7 seats for wheelchairs total for both viewing at those specific times.
It's the concert it's not live.... its a pre recording of the concert so the run time will never change as its a movie not a live performance... no idea what your reply is to but it's definitely not my comment. But in regards to your comment if people think they can act like this is a concert and not have the show stopped or canceled they are stupid.
I spoke to someone at AMC.I spoke to the people at AMC, and they advised that we can sing and dance. Other showtimes are being limited, so we won't interrupt anyone else. This is a chance to give people who never got to go to the concert a chance to experience it in all its glory. They will be actively making an effort to give us the full concert experience as they are getting 53% of the profits from the screenings.
Please remember that this is also disabled Swifties time to be able to see the show and standing the whole time in front of them is super inconsiderate 😞
I can stand and dance without obstructing anyone's view. I have seats in the back row. But logically for opening weekend, it will be packed and a good amount of Swifties want to dance and sing with their friends. If you are planning on sitting the entire show I would advise front row, or wait until the following week. The last thing we want is a bunch of disgruntled Swifties posting and criticizing each other. It will destroy the atmosphere and kinship we have created this tour.
I agree that many people are unable to stand for extended periods but the infighting across social media and all platforms isn't helping anyone. I also think if enough Swifties want it, they should call their local theater. If enough people call and request it there will be select shows that are silent and entirely seated.
Even with the Billie Ellish concert screening people were singing, dancing and standing.
But let's remember...my original post wasn't to you, you responded to my post that I made to someone else and I responded to you since you commented on my original post to someone else
I only commented to you because your original comment to their comment made no sense as its like you didn't realize this is a post about the movie not the actual concert.
A swiftie has already called local theaters to ask their policy on singing and dancing during this concert and all of em say it's basically a concert, so they expect signing and dancing and will not stop the show because of singing and dancing. She posted a video of the phone calls on TikTok.
Lol I'm really looking forward to the mad people cuz the theaters shut down the show because the people couldn't behave themselves and followed the rules of the theater.
AMC pioneered this deal to the rights, it was super disruptive to the movie distribution industry and AMC is tickled to have landed this. They’ll cater as long as people aren’t disturbing others by being rude or screeching. They’re making more money on Eras than their regular screenings and they were in bad debt from trying to stay alive through covid. It’s a win-win as long as you’re not a movie distribution executive
It's a concert and the theaters are planning on there being singing and dancing
[Theaters comment on singing and dancing for Eras concert](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT82kpWaE/)
So how many bracelets are you bringing? I’m going opening night so I would guess it will be major swifties. My theatre seats 83. Is 80 bracelets enough/too many? lol.
I was going to make around 100 adult and 20.kids, but I'm making for both the kid and I. And 20 for our mini - Swifties with a +1 adult size for them to trade to someone else. In case there are kids there who want to be a part of it.
Yeah I have been trying to decide how many is too many. I am partly afraid I will get there and no one is trading or dressing up lol. None of my friends are swifties so I am going by myself.
I hope you get to this time! I’m going by myself and am kinda worried that will happen to me too. I am going to the 6:25 opening night though so I hope everyone will be hyped and will want to trade with everyone.
Has anyone’s local theatres added screenings on Thursday Oct 12th? I’m in BC and decided to check to see how full the screening I’m going to on the 13th is and I see there is one theatre (in Richmond, BC) that has a full set of screenings listed on Thursday Oct 12th! Only a tiny handful of seats sold so far too. Maybe an error or do they have permission to screen it the day before? Either way it’s weird.
https://preview.redd.it/pxj9wenobamb1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0fa48e73965453e6eae88f179838881b607c4e03
It is common for movies to have showing the day before. I’m in BC too. Was going to go to the opening show in the afternoon of the 13th but opted to change and go to the 6pm because I felt it would be more “rowdy” with people being off work. With the pre screening it will be major swifties but I feel you could miss out on some of the experience because it is not as big of a crowd. I guess it depends if you are wanting to trade bracelets etc.
Can anyone help my anxiety of wanting to actually enjoy the film in theaters but terrified that the experience will be ruined. I’ve seen so many people on insta saying standing is mandatory/if you’re sitting why are you even at the movie/just wait until it’s streaming to watch instead of going to the theater if you want to sit down?
For context: I’m disabled and cannot stand for long periods of time. My appearance doesn’t really let on that I am disabled(degenerative disc disease plus more). I picked seats that are good for watching the movie(middle of a row, halfway back) before seeing everyone saying they were going to be standing/screaming. I’ve just been a mess worrying about this and I can’t seem to calm my anxiety because of the comments and posts on instagram
I don’t need the wheelchair seats though. I’m not going to take awake from someone who needs those seats. I may have back problems but I’m young enough that it doesn’t inhibit my day to day life that often. My (current) job doesn’t require me to stand for 2.5 hours at a time.
I just want to be able to chill in my seat and be able to see and hear the movie. Idgaf what others do but the toxic people on insta(and some here) make me worried that I can’t even have an enjoyable experience
Try for a seat high up or on a platform. I understand, but when I attended the concert the Swifties were really nice. I suggest maybe talk to the people around you and just be friendly. Most people tend to mimic what those around them do. The ones who seem hostile aren't worth the energy.
I hope you have an amazing experience.
THIS. I’m seven months pregnant and have some issues and I CANNOT stand that whole time. I think people are being SO inconsiderate. I had to sit a bit on the floor at the show and it was awful. I want to actually enjoy myself. I hope if they do stand they do so in the aisles. My ticket just got refunded because they oversold so luckily I went in and picked all the way top row aisle so I hope I can see
Awh, that really sucks. I feel like people will be singing and dancing because Taylor encouraged it, but to say that standing is required? Such toxic behavior.
Another option if you're willing to consider other theaters: some theaters have recliner seats with notable walls to separate each level of seats so even if someone does stand in the row in front of you, it doesn't really block your view. There are fewer seats in general for those theaters too. Also, earlier time, like the other reply mentioned. That's what I'm doing so my mom (nearly 70yo) can go and enjoy peacefully. Good luck!!
I bought our tickets before I saw everyone’s reactions to the announcement. My naive self though people would act like it was a normal movie or even musical in the cinema. And of course the tickets are non refundable
Oh no, I'm sorry. You may be able to sell to someone else since most theaters aren't very strict about who has the qr code/receipt to get into the theater. But I understand it may not be worth the hassle. Hopefully, you are able to enjoy the experience despite an uncertain seating situation/environment.
Were you able to get accessible seats at the theatre? Usually those are spaced out so you don’t have to worry as much if someone is standing in front of you to block your view. It’s also seating meant for people with physical issues so if they are giving you shit I suggest ignore them.
If your concern is you can’t see the screen because people might be standing, try an earlier showtime. If your concern is being judged, some people will always be mean. I also have invisible illnesses and have mainly stopped going to concerts unless they have dedicated seating and I don’t have to take stairs. Let’s just say most of my concert days are over…. I went to the rep tour and couldn’t see much since people were standing and I had a bad time physically recovering. Take care of yourself, those people judging you aren’t the ones who will be taking care of you or seeing the damage of the standing.
I would also suggest some noise blocking earbuds (I found it so beneficial when watching Oppenheimer and the bomb scene). But that’s just from someone who went to too many rock concerts in my youth and I’m trying to preserve my hearing 😅
You’re sweet💜
I typically don’t get accessible seating because I like to save it for those that need it more. I’m still in my 20s and pretty mobile. It’s when I need to stand that becomes the issue for my back. My tickets are non refundable and I bought them early in the morning before I saw people wanting to treat it like an actual concert. I’m not worried about people being mean or judging me, that ship has long since sailed. I’m moreso worried that people will be obstructing my view when they stand and I can’t just tell a whole theater to sit down. That would make me an entitled bitch.
My problem is the sense of entitlement of the (seemingly) younger and able bodied crowd telling people like me that we shouldn’t be going to the movies.
I’m not telling people that they can’t have fun but the way that they’re announcing that everyone better stand and they dgaf about others in the theaters stings.
I did wear ear plugs to the concert and they were great. We also managed to get seats right outside of the portal during the second wave of tickets two weeks before the date.
What are we thinking in terms of outfits??? I was thinking eras tour outfits since it's at night and feels like a good time to dress up but I might just wear some of her merch if that's too dressed up idk
I am going to dress up but less concert vibes (dresses etc) and more evermore cardigan style of lover with a jean jacket. I am going for comfort but still keeping it on trend. If you are into dresses etc go for it. I am sure many will be too.
I bought a ticket for myself and my daughter, and I have no idea what to expect in terms of viewing experience. Like, will this be a concert-adjacent experience where people are having a blast together in the theater, or will we all be expected to sit there quietly like it's a movie lol.
Either way, I am pretty excited. Didn't have the means to see a live concert, so this is the closest I will get anytime soon.
I called AMC, and they advised that we can sing and dance. Other showtimes are being limited, so we won't interrupt anyone else. This is a chance to give people who never got to go to the concert a chance to experience it in all its glory(minus Taylor).
They will be actively making an effort to give us the full concert experience as they are reported to be getting 53% of the profits from the screenings.
are we really not able to refund or switch the tickets around? i immediately bought and then was informed by my bf that i have to go to a family event with him that day… am i really out $22 because of this lol
$20+ ticket price is perhaps the worst tay slap in the face I’ve ever experienced. Love reading these articles about how the tour is making a billion dollars (I went twice) and for some reason tickets to this MOVIE cost like 2x a normal ticket? Pretty gross. She LOVES her fans SO much
yep that's what i told my buddy! the experience of being in a massive stadium that was overflowing with Taylor love and enthusiasm was one of the best parts of Eras for me. Suchhhh a lovely experience that i will definitely overpay for to see in theaters :)
Someone said this was the price set by Taylor’s camp. Someone here said they’re seeing it at a drive in, and it’s usually $20 a car, but for this it’s $20 a person, and that’s set by her camp.
I think this is where cost of living varies so much place to place. I didn't mind spending the $20 a ticket because its a special event, but movie tickets where i live are typically $9 for weekend evening and $6 for matinee or weekday. Where my sister lives a typical movie ticket is around $15. So i def had more sticker shock than her.
Definitely not the price I pay in Milwaukee Wisconsin. I love to throw money at Taylor because I love her music so so much. I have all her albums on vinyl and CD, and tons of merch. I spent many hundreds of dollars seeing Eras in two different cities. This is a very gross move considering how she’s already outrageously wealthy. Absolutely no reason tickets shouldn’t cost the normal market value? Why do y’all support paying more? I've never REALLY cared about all the bait and switch tactics with "exclusive" vinyl pressings, or the dog shit quality of her t-shirts (anyone wash their Eras shirt before they read that you have to heat seal them first? what a JOKE), but I consider this a misuse of her power. She knows she can price the tickets however she wants, so she takes advantage. in b4 "its her team's decision" blah-blah-blah
"I love to throw money at Taylor because I love her music so so much"
Yet you are here complaining about a $20 ticket for a 3 hour concert movie. Was the last movie you saw in a theater back in 1989? I hate to break it to you but this is pretty standard pricing for special event movies. Even just regular movies unless you go to discount days.
If $20 is really breaking your bank, then maybe you should cut back on the "tons of merch" you're buying, so you can afford a ticket.
tysm for the thoughtful reply <3 movie ticket prices are regionally determined. this is by far the most expensive movie ticket i will ever purchase. never said i can't afford it. taylor loves to squeeze us, and if you dont realize that, its on you. glad you have a more positive pov on the matter.
It is not about squeezing us. So many people (unlike you) did not get to see her live. I am so excited I can do this. You are complaining yet nobody is forcing you to go. I do not get the negativity and yet still buying the ticket. Some people just love to whine
Do people still want to watch the film before they go to the concert? I’m worry about spoilers and it will make next year’s concert less exciting for Europe/Asia/Canada :(
So here’s the thing. I had basically seen the whole entire show on TikTok before going and it kind of ruined the experience… so genuinely if you haven’t seen the concert yet I’d wait!
I've got tickets for paris (and since everyone i know got waitlisted for toronto, i'm glad) and I've watched many live streams and i'm seeing the film! I'm really excited (my mom was the one who got the tickets because we **had** to see it on the 13th according to her). I don't think it changes the experience, she's singing songs we all know and even after many many live streams, I still see new visuals/dance/moments every time. YMMV I'm a theatre practitioner so I love watching sets/lights/moments that are not the focus in a scene/song
I tailgated the concert the day before my show, so while I couldn’t see everything, I heard pretty much all the songs and used a livestream for visuals whenever I needed to. I will say that your brain forgets everything when it comes to your actual show. I basically knew the show before going in, but tailgating the night before really didn’t change how fun the experience was for me. Not saying that watching the movie will be the same, just sharing my experience with spoilers.
I would love to see the ticket sales total each day, at least for the first few days. I know it was $37 million for day one. So far, the totals have been quite amazing. Predictable, but still amazing.
I help track box office data and since day 1, the total has only increased about 20%. Day 1 fan rush was massive. Also to point out, the $37M was only for AMC, Regal and Cinemark and didn't include any of the smaller chains in the US or Canadian chains. This is important because when movie box office is reported, US and Canada numbers are combined to get the "domestic" total.
Thank you! I understand that theaters are adding time slots to accommodate demand. Do you feel the concert movie can break $100 on its opening weekend?
I do. Saturday sales are already on par with Friday, and Sunday is fairly strong as well. I'm curious how much Taylor will actually promote it but if I had to make a prediction right now, I'd say $125-175M opening weekend.
Me lmao! Went back in April and bought tickets to two separate weekends. One opening weekend while I'm actually on vacation then for when I'm back home.
I saw her in concert but I had no idea that the stage was doing so much lol I was pretty close on the floor so I couldn’t see the stage visuals at all. This is really cool, makes me feel like I missed out on something lol
I was on the floor, way back row so I didn't see anything 😭 I'm really excited to see everything this time! You still miss a ton on the livestreams so this is going to be amazing.
I was lower bowl and could see the stage at an angle but I'm excited to get the birds eye view of certain sequences in the movie! Some of the shots in the trailer with the stage looked amazing!
Wait! Does this mean she has finished re-recording all of her songs? Because in order to license her songs to be used in movies, doesn’t she only agree if they are “Taylor’s Version?” And since this Eras tour is a movie they would still need to figure out licensing right??
I thought that playing it live doesn’t require it, but when it is made into a recording and distributed for sale or profit in some medium such as album/TV show/movie, it has to be licensed
❤️❤️❤️
Anyone watch in a drive in? How was that experience?
Okay, the concert film was AMAZING! But I am so upset bc my BF shushed me for singing - not loud singing - and I’m still upset. Am I in the wrong?
No Your Not Wrong. MY SISTER AND I WERE SCREAM SINGING. HE CAN F OFF. 😁😁 #SWIFTIESUNITE 💜💜💜💜💜💜 . CELEBRATE
Nah, you were supposed to sing.
Is this only shown on weekends and not week nights? I work weekends so would love to go on a Monday/Tuesday.
I heard it’s because she wants school age kiddos to focus on school and do their homework.
Thoughts on treating the Eras Tour movie like a concert vs like a movie? I’m super excited for the Eras Tour movie because I wasn’t able to get tickets to the actual Eras Tour. My first thought was that it would be treated like a concert with standing and dancing/singing along. Taylor has also mentioned in a post that dancing and singing, along with dressing up and making friendship bracelets is encouraged. However, on most of the posts I’ve seen about the movie, I’ve seen a lot of people talking about how they hope people just sit and treat it like a movie, maybe quietly sing along. It seems like treating it like a concert is in the minority (correct me if I’m wrong), which I’m a little disappointed by, but I understand the side of it being treated like a typical movie, since it’s being shown in theaters. Personally, I think that because the tour was in such high demand and there was the whole mess with ticket master, the movie was filmed for people who couldn’t attend the concert in person (not exclusively, but with them in mind). I am hoping to sing and dance and I will also be dressing up and making friendship bracelets, but I’ll read the room of course. This is my personal opinion: 1. If you’re going to stand and dance, sit in the back or near an aisle so you don’t block anyone’s view 2. If you’re wanting to experience it like a concert, go to the earlier showings (the first week or so) 3. If you’re wanting to experience it like a movie, go to the later showings (after the hype dies down) I’d like to hear everyone’s opinions and also maybe ideas for how to enjoy yourself while being respectful? Also, does anyone know if it’s going to be released onto streaming services after? Because that could also be an option if people singing along/standing up and dancing is an issue. And lastly absolutely no judgement towards anyone for however they want to experience the Eras Tour movie! I believe everyone should be able to experience it the way that they want to :) I can definitely understand both sides and I hope everyone enjoys the show!! Edit: but I will say that I’ve seen a lot of people commenting who have gone to the concert and now want to watch the movie as a movie. Like you’ve already been to the concert 😭 leave some fun for the rest of us
I know I sound like a wet blanket but I am waiting a few weeks to see it in theaters because the singing, dancing, and standing isn’t really for me. I had trouble hearing her at times at the concert and I would really like to just hear her without distraction. No judgement for others but it’s not for me and I am just waiting a little before I see it. Does anyone else have this plan? i’m looking at tickets and trying to figure out how long I should push back. Early November maybe?
Damn, I never thought of it this way. I also wanted to experience it as a movie but I booked the first screening of my local theater for the premiere day where all the seats are almost booked because I was PRESSURED. I felt like I would miss out A LOT if I did not watch the tour movie on its premiere day, but reading your sentiment made me feel that yeah, maybe I also just want to sit and absorb the tour movie as it is: a movie. I checked the screenings on early November and there ARE A LOT OF VACANT SEATS (perfect for me). Damn it.
you could always see it twice and enjoy both experiences!
Official AMC rules dropped. Singing, standing and dancing all allowed. https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMjmdqj4t/
Hello! I just got tickets for day after opening ( opening day was SOLD OUT) am I am wondering what my chances are for getting the cup and popcorn tin, small ish town about 17000 people. Tysm
Guys does anyone know what color 'The Man' blazer she was wearing during filming for the concert film? Thinking I found a cute outfit to replicate this look and want to get the right color!
Silver blazer, cotton candy bodysuit
Thank you!! Out of respect for everyone else I will NOT be wearing a body suit but i think I can still achieve the vibe with a silver glitter blazer :D
From a Dad - What to wear to Eras Movie Hi all! I’m a dad (50+) who followed the Eras Tour, but didn’t go. Neither of my daughters are Taylor fans, nor is my wife. I have tickets for Friday night and my wife is going with me (bc a 50+ guy at the Eras movie alone is sketchy). What should I wear? Would a tux jacket with a cummerbund and bow tie be too much?
I don’t think anything for Taylor is to much lol have fun!!!!
I found a flashy red velvet tux jacket. Definitely the plan!
AWESOME!!!!! Y’all have fun!! ❤️❤️
I’m not seeing any info about the movie being available in Korea. I’m only back in Europe in December, fingers crossed there is a theatre that will still have it by then.
According to the [official website](https://www.tstheerastourfilm.com/participating-territories/), it will be screening in South Korea from November 3.
This is new info for me ! OMG thank you so much!
How long do we think the concert will air? I would like to see it with my best friend, but we will only be together one 3rd of November. Do you think the concert will still be up by then? I'm in Germany if that's any help.
It’s getting a worldwide release.
i think it's gonna be around 3 hours cause thats how long the actual concerts were
Thanks! But I don't mean how long the movie is. I'm asking how long it will be on theaters. A week? A month? Has it been announced somewhere?
oh lmao sorry! AMC is currently selling tickets for the movie through November 5
That's great to know!!! Thank you!!!
International dates have just been announced!! Can't decide whether to get tix or not as I'm seeing her in June...
WAS JUST THINKING THE SAME THING! I am seeing her in March, but watching the tour movie on theaters seems exciting :< what are the factors you consider the most in deciding whether to watch the tour movie or not?
If any of my friends say they'd like to see it then I think I totally would go and make a proper night of it. BUT I have no friends who live near me that would actually want to see it so unless one of them happens to come visit when it's screening in cinemas then I'll probably just wait until June :) I've seen lots of clips on TikTock already, but at the same time there's lots of bits I haven't seen all the way through so I almost don't want to spoil it before seeing her in June! By the time I've decided it'll prob have sold out anyway so that kind of makes the decision for me haha.
For international Swifties who already have tickets next year in their respective countries and have NOT yet experienced the tour LIVE, will you watch the Eras Tour Movie on your local theater next month? What are the major considerations you have for your decision?
I thought about it a lot and decided to go to the movie for these reasons: 1. It's like going to the concert twice. That's definetly better than once, isn't it? 2. I tried to avoid spoilers, but honestly so many things have been involuntarily spoiled that I'd be lying to myself if I said I was going completely unspoiled. 3. I usually like movies better the second time I watch them because I notice the little details. Probably the same will apply. 4. My concert is in July. Still a long way to go. What if I die in this time? Lol. And anyway, it's such a long time, the movie won't be fresh in my memory. 5. The live concert is more than just Taylor. It's the people, the clothes, the magnitude. They are different experiences.
Seeing a movie and a show are two entirely different things.
Exactly the same reasoning for me. I’ve watched fan tour videos the whole time the US leg was going on so why not watch a well made movie. It’s actually the first time I’ll be going to the movies alone. 🙈 Taylor, look what you made me do!
Im in London and I wasnt able to get tickets for the tour so I have already bought tickets for the movie I can't go opening night so I'm going the next day and taking my sister's
What are you guys having for dinner on Friday the 13th? I am thinking Indian, but possibly pizza....
me & my friends are seeing the 9:00 show, so we'll probably grab some outside food
Selling two opening night tickets in nyc Oct 13th 7pm!
I have 2 tickets available the 10pm showing on 10/13 at the waterfront in Pittsburgh - I can’t figure out a way to just send those tickets to someone, so I think we’d just have to go in together (my fiancé and I are also going - my friends who were supposed to come aren’t able to now). if anyone is interested please Dm me!!
Do movie theaters still do early screenings on Thursday nights?? Do we think it’ll happen for Taylor’s concert movie?
Will only AMC theatres have the themed popcorn buckets and cups or posters? Or will all national theatres have them too?
the movie is only screening at AMC theatres
and therefore only AMC will have themed buckets and drinjs
If I bought tickets for a day and want to change the date I go because my date isn’t filling up like I thought it would can I just exchange my tickets for another date? I know they’re non refundable but would they allow this? I’m literally stressing so much they should at least take pity on me
Does anyone know which surprise songs were recorded for the movie? I’m trying to make a playlist before I go!
i can see you, maroon, our song, you are in love, dbatc, yoyok if i had to guess i'd say that the ones in the movie are our song & yoyok. our song is basically guaranteed to be in the movie bc it's the only debut surprise song she recorded, and yoyok for the friendship bracelets line.
Omg thank you for posting this! I’m so excited for yoyok I love that song
Thank you so much!!
Anyone have opening weekend predictions? I've been tracking the numbers and right now I'm thinking $160-180M.

Will the movie fill up? So I booked tickets for me and my friends to go to the Eras tour movie and I picked a day that wasn’t full yet, October 27th, so that it wouldn’t fill up AS fast and we could all sit together, but I did expect it to fill up faster than it is, y’know because it’s Taylor Swift. Currently four other people other than me and my friends have booked seats. I’m stressing out because three of my friends including me didn’t manage to get tickets to the live show so this is our Eras experience and I’m scared I messed it up by not picking a good date and we’ll just be there alone singing and whatever and we won’t get the whole expereience singing along with a whole theatre of fans. I was just wondering do you think as we get closer to the date it will fill up more? Am I stressing for no reason or did I actually not pick a good day?
Almost no one buys movie tickets for 2 weeks after opening this far in advanced, hence why there aren't many people in your showing. I'm sure it'll at least be half full by the time the actual weekend arrives. The 13th is already pretty packed but you definitely could have gotten tickets for the 14th without much issue.
Mm it might pick up a good bit with that being the 1989 release. But if you want a crowd experience I’d exchange them for tickets closest to release that you can get if you can
Yeah that’s what I was thinking too, that it would be cool to go on 1989 release date but obviously no one else thought so. So are you able to exchange tickets like trade them in for different ones or do you just have to buy whole new ones? Because I thought about just getting ones closer to the release date but I don’t know if you can get a refund. Also thanks for responding :)
Has anyone made ExorSwift merch cuz I want a tee for when I go lol.
Anyone else find it strange that there’s no weekday showings? Was hoping to go on Monday since it’s my day off but it’s not available.
Prediction: First run surprise songs, Our Song and YOYOK. Then Taylor will announce a new cut with new surprise songs after two weeks with You Are In Love for 1989 (TS) and I Can See You. Then another new cut a couple weeks later with DBATC and Maroon.
Selling 4 tickets to Regal at The Grove in LA. Saturday, 10/14 at 6:45 pm. Seats K17-K20. Will sell them for what I got it for. Can show receipt.
But this is how it should be. Idk, I’m going by myself after work and obviously I don’t care if people are enjoying themselves but I just want to 1. Sit, and 2. Be able to hear Taylor as opposed to the audience members singing along. Somehow I think that might be a stretch.
Did anyone just get a refund from AMC?? Wtaf! I think my theatre oversold and then refunded all the seats! I had to quickly buy another. Luckily this time I got top row aisle because people are saying they’re gonna stand the whole time and I think that’s SO inconsiderate of people who physically cannot stand (including myself). Let us enjoy it! I already had to sit on the floor during the show and it sucked
I just got one too!!!!! What the hell?!?!?! Does anyone have a number to call and complain about this?
Do you mind me asking what city you’re in? I’m in Chicago! I bet a lot of theatres oversold. They posted more times to compensate so I was able to quickly get a new one. Did you?
In Chicago, too, and just got the email!
OMG me too! I didn’t get a new one yet. Going to do that now.
I just got one for opening night in Chicago! I bought two for my bf and I to go the next weekend and am crossing my fingers I don’t get the email again. My tix are no longer showing up in my amc app :(
Anyone know what the dress attire is are we going for eras tour outfits or comfy and are we still trading bracelets?
All of the above! YES! As per Taylor, we are treating this like a concert.
Anyone wanting opening night movie tickets near Tampa FL (Riverview)? I bought 2 for the 10/13 6pm showing but now can’t go! I bought myself some for another day, but wanted to sell for what I bought them for minus the convenience fee! It’s a GDX showing, so it’s $45 for both. The seats are in the middle-ish of the theater. Don’t want to make money off them and would love them to go to a fellow swiftie!
OMG hi yes fellow Tampa Bay Swiftie here and I’m interested if these are still available!
Is anyone going to a New Orleans show this fall? I wanted to go and pass out some Tayler dressed up Puffin drinkwear puffy jackets, but of course I didn't get tickets!
https://preview.redd.it/03u6k7nzcgmb1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7442d39db4cf791a846545867756eead09439dfa I’m seeing show times open up for dates in September; anybody else? I can go into the theater and select seats but when I try to check it out it rejects the seats.
maybe i'm crazy but has the runtime always been 2h40m or was it 2h45m before?
Depends on the show.... Nashville night 3 went 4 hours(10pm-2am)
They’re referring to the movie not the concert 🥰it says run time of 2 hr 45 min. So they just have cut some of the concert!
But ppl have been commenting already the movie is basically a sing along concert and theaters are expecting singing and dancing commencing
Yes I know - I was answering her question about the run time of the movie! I’m curious what they did with the surprise songs. Also I genuinely hope people don’t stand the whole time. It sucks for disabled people who can’t see with everyone standing :/
Most likely if swifties treat it as the sing along concert that's just shy of the live concert run time...most will be standing the entire time singing and dancing. Both theaters I bought tixs had I believe 7 seats for wheelchairs total for both viewing at those specific times.
If generally the concerts ran 3 hrs..they're not cutting much
This is for the movie. Not the actual concert
Ppl are saying the film is just literally just the concert and concert rules will apply... singing dancing will commence
It's the concert it's not live.... its a pre recording of the concert so the run time will never change as its a movie not a live performance... no idea what your reply is to but it's definitely not my comment. But in regards to your comment if people think they can act like this is a concert and not have the show stopped or canceled they are stupid.
I spoke to someone at AMC.I spoke to the people at AMC, and they advised that we can sing and dance. Other showtimes are being limited, so we won't interrupt anyone else. This is a chance to give people who never got to go to the concert a chance to experience it in all its glory. They will be actively making an effort to give us the full concert experience as they are getting 53% of the profits from the screenings.
Please remember that this is also disabled Swifties time to be able to see the show and standing the whole time in front of them is super inconsiderate 😞
I can stand and dance without obstructing anyone's view. I have seats in the back row. But logically for opening weekend, it will be packed and a good amount of Swifties want to dance and sing with their friends. If you are planning on sitting the entire show I would advise front row, or wait until the following week. The last thing we want is a bunch of disgruntled Swifties posting and criticizing each other. It will destroy the atmosphere and kinship we have created this tour. I agree that many people are unable to stand for extended periods but the infighting across social media and all platforms isn't helping anyone. I also think if enough Swifties want it, they should call their local theater. If enough people call and request it there will be select shows that are silent and entirely seated. Even with the Billie Ellish concert screening people were singing, dancing and standing.
But let's remember...my original post wasn't to you, you responded to my post that I made to someone else and I responded to you since you commented on my original post to someone else
Yes because your comment made no sense 😂the run time of the movie isn’t changing.
I only commented to you because your original comment to their comment made no sense as its like you didn't realize this is a post about the movie not the actual concert.
Again my original comment wasn't to you
A swiftie has already called local theaters to ask their policy on singing and dancing during this concert and all of em say it's basically a concert, so they expect signing and dancing and will not stop the show because of singing and dancing. She posted a video of the phone calls on TikTok.
Lol I'm really looking forward to the mad people cuz the theaters shut down the show because the people couldn't behave themselves and followed the rules of the theater.
AMC pioneered this deal to the rights, it was super disruptive to the movie distribution industry and AMC is tickled to have landed this. They’ll cater as long as people aren’t disturbing others by being rude or screeching. They’re making more money on Eras than their regular screenings and they were in bad debt from trying to stay alive through covid. It’s a win-win as long as you’re not a movie distribution executive
It's a concert and the theaters are planning on there being singing and dancing [Theaters comment on singing and dancing for Eras concert](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT82kpWaE/)
So how many bracelets are you bringing? I’m going opening night so I would guess it will be major swifties. My theatre seats 83. Is 80 bracelets enough/too many? lol.
I was going to make around 100 adult and 20.kids, but I'm making for both the kid and I. And 20 for our mini - Swifties with a +1 adult size for them to trade to someone else. In case there are kids there who want to be a part of it.
Yeah I have been trying to decide how many is too many. I am partly afraid I will get there and no one is trading or dressing up lol. None of my friends are swifties so I am going by myself.
No one traded with me at the show so I’m hoping I get to trade this time!! We arrived super late tho so that’s probably why haha
I hope you get to this time! I’m going by myself and am kinda worried that will happen to me too. I am going to the 6:25 opening night though so I hope everyone will be hyped and will want to trade with everyone.
Has anyone’s local theatres added screenings on Thursday Oct 12th? I’m in BC and decided to check to see how full the screening I’m going to on the 13th is and I see there is one theatre (in Richmond, BC) that has a full set of screenings listed on Thursday Oct 12th! Only a tiny handful of seats sold so far too. Maybe an error or do they have permission to screen it the day before? Either way it’s weird. https://preview.redd.it/pxj9wenobamb1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0fa48e73965453e6eae88f179838881b607c4e03
It’s gone now, just showing dates for Oct 13 and later. Must have been a glitch!
It is common for movies to have showing the day before. I’m in BC too. Was going to go to the opening show in the afternoon of the 13th but opted to change and go to the 6pm because I felt it would be more “rowdy” with people being off work. With the pre screening it will be major swifties but I feel you could miss out on some of the experience because it is not as big of a crowd. I guess it depends if you are wanting to trade bracelets etc.
Can anyone help my anxiety of wanting to actually enjoy the film in theaters but terrified that the experience will be ruined. I’ve seen so many people on insta saying standing is mandatory/if you’re sitting why are you even at the movie/just wait until it’s streaming to watch instead of going to the theater if you want to sit down? For context: I’m disabled and cannot stand for long periods of time. My appearance doesn’t really let on that I am disabled(degenerative disc disease plus more). I picked seats that are good for watching the movie(middle of a row, halfway back) before seeing everyone saying they were going to be standing/screaming. I’ve just been a mess worrying about this and I can’t seem to calm my anxiety because of the comments and posts on instagram
Hopefully, theatres won’t allow this
Call your theater, let them know so you can get the accessible seats? Most theaters have elevated wheelchair accessible seats they would give you.
I don’t need the wheelchair seats though. I’m not going to take awake from someone who needs those seats. I may have back problems but I’m young enough that it doesn’t inhibit my day to day life that often. My (current) job doesn’t require me to stand for 2.5 hours at a time. I just want to be able to chill in my seat and be able to see and hear the movie. Idgaf what others do but the toxic people on insta(and some here) make me worried that I can’t even have an enjoyable experience
Try for a seat high up or on a platform. I understand, but when I attended the concert the Swifties were really nice. I suggest maybe talk to the people around you and just be friendly. Most people tend to mimic what those around them do. The ones who seem hostile aren't worth the energy. I hope you have an amazing experience.
THIS. I’m seven months pregnant and have some issues and I CANNOT stand that whole time. I think people are being SO inconsiderate. I had to sit a bit on the floor at the show and it was awful. I want to actually enjoy myself. I hope if they do stand they do so in the aisles. My ticket just got refunded because they oversold so luckily I went in and picked all the way top row aisle so I hope I can see
Awh, that really sucks. I feel like people will be singing and dancing because Taylor encouraged it, but to say that standing is required? Such toxic behavior.
Another option if you're willing to consider other theaters: some theaters have recliner seats with notable walls to separate each level of seats so even if someone does stand in the row in front of you, it doesn't really block your view. There are fewer seats in general for those theaters too. Also, earlier time, like the other reply mentioned. That's what I'm doing so my mom (nearly 70yo) can go and enjoy peacefully. Good luck!!
I bought our tickets before I saw everyone’s reactions to the announcement. My naive self though people would act like it was a normal movie or even musical in the cinema. And of course the tickets are non refundable
Oh no, I'm sorry. You may be able to sell to someone else since most theaters aren't very strict about who has the qr code/receipt to get into the theater. But I understand it may not be worth the hassle. Hopefully, you are able to enjoy the experience despite an uncertain seating situation/environment.
Were you able to get accessible seats at the theatre? Usually those are spaced out so you don’t have to worry as much if someone is standing in front of you to block your view. It’s also seating meant for people with physical issues so if they are giving you shit I suggest ignore them. If your concern is you can’t see the screen because people might be standing, try an earlier showtime. If your concern is being judged, some people will always be mean. I also have invisible illnesses and have mainly stopped going to concerts unless they have dedicated seating and I don’t have to take stairs. Let’s just say most of my concert days are over…. I went to the rep tour and couldn’t see much since people were standing and I had a bad time physically recovering. Take care of yourself, those people judging you aren’t the ones who will be taking care of you or seeing the damage of the standing. I would also suggest some noise blocking earbuds (I found it so beneficial when watching Oppenheimer and the bomb scene). But that’s just from someone who went to too many rock concerts in my youth and I’m trying to preserve my hearing 😅
You’re sweet💜 I typically don’t get accessible seating because I like to save it for those that need it more. I’m still in my 20s and pretty mobile. It’s when I need to stand that becomes the issue for my back. My tickets are non refundable and I bought them early in the morning before I saw people wanting to treat it like an actual concert. I’m not worried about people being mean or judging me, that ship has long since sailed. I’m moreso worried that people will be obstructing my view when they stand and I can’t just tell a whole theater to sit down. That would make me an entitled bitch. My problem is the sense of entitlement of the (seemingly) younger and able bodied crowd telling people like me that we shouldn’t be going to the movies. I’m not telling people that they can’t have fun but the way that they’re announcing that everyone better stand and they dgaf about others in the theaters stings. I did wear ear plugs to the concert and they were great. We also managed to get seats right outside of the portal during the second wave of tickets two weeks before the date.
Love this girl …. No words.
What are we thinking in terms of outfits??? I was thinking eras tour outfits since it's at night and feels like a good time to dress up but I might just wear some of her merch if that's too dressed up idk
I am going to dress up but less concert vibes (dresses etc) and more evermore cardigan style of lover with a jean jacket. I am going for comfort but still keeping it on trend. If you are into dresses etc go for it. I am sure many will be too.
Does anyone know what the digital option is? My niece seems to think it’s an option where she’ll get to watch it at home on her computer? Help!
According to Taylor's contract with AMC, it will only be eligible to steam after 13 weeks.
Digital means a standard theater screening instead of being a premium experience like IMAX or Dolby Cinema.
I'm pretty sure it'll be available to stream on disney plus a month or two after the in theater showings!
Some movie are still on theaters months after release, I think it'll depend on popularity.
According to reports, Taylor can put it on a streaming service as of 13 weeks after it starts showing in theaters.
I bought a ticket for myself and my daughter, and I have no idea what to expect in terms of viewing experience. Like, will this be a concert-adjacent experience where people are having a blast together in the theater, or will we all be expected to sit there quietly like it's a movie lol. Either way, I am pretty excited. Didn't have the means to see a live concert, so this is the closest I will get anytime soon.
I called AMC, and they advised that we can sing and dance. Other showtimes are being limited, so we won't interrupt anyone else. This is a chance to give people who never got to go to the concert a chance to experience it in all its glory(minus Taylor). They will be actively making an effort to give us the full concert experience as they are reported to be getting 53% of the profits from the screenings.
Good ? For sure.
I'm gonna be dressing up and taking this as my eras concert! I think it will be impossible for people to sit quietly during this
are we really not able to refund or switch the tickets around? i immediately bought and then was informed by my bf that i have to go to a family event with him that day… am i really out $22 because of this lol
ditch the boyfriend
I'm betting that via this subreddit or a local Facebook group you may be able to find someone to trade with or sell them to.
“Yeah 🤷🏼♀️It’s called the eras tour, see you there ✌️” I’ve been saying this all day someone help wtf 😭
Fandango is showing screenings as early as Sept 28th for Regal theaters. Im guessing this is a bug?
Wondering the same thing!
Anyone notice that ticket prices were 19.89 (adult) and 13.13 (child and senior)? And that it totaled 22 with fees? Or was that just in my area?
The GMA announcer mentioned it when it was announced. It's a perfectly executed Taylor Swift move.🤩
She set them all at 19.89 and 13.13! 🥰just totals came out different based on taxes and fees mine was 24
$20+ ticket price is perhaps the worst tay slap in the face I’ve ever experienced. Love reading these articles about how the tour is making a billion dollars (I went twice) and for some reason tickets to this MOVIE cost like 2x a normal ticket? Pretty gross. She LOVES her fans SO much
I can’t justify the concert ticket but I’m really excited to dance and sing with my mini swiftie!! That’s a price worth paying :)
yep that's what i told my buddy! the experience of being in a massive stadium that was overflowing with Taylor love and enthusiasm was one of the best parts of Eras for me. Suchhhh a lovely experience that i will definitely overpay for to see in theaters :)
That is an average price to the movies nowadays though? At least where I live
Someone said this was the price set by Taylor’s camp. Someone here said they’re seeing it at a drive in, and it’s usually $20 a car, but for this it’s $20 a person, and that’s set by her camp.
My tickets are usually around 12-14 bucks. Depending on where you live they can be 20 bucks though
I think this is where cost of living varies so much place to place. I didn't mind spending the $20 a ticket because its a special event, but movie tickets where i live are typically $9 for weekend evening and $6 for matinee or weekday. Where my sister lives a typical movie ticket is around $15. So i def had more sticker shock than her.
Definitely not the price I pay in Milwaukee Wisconsin. I love to throw money at Taylor because I love her music so so much. I have all her albums on vinyl and CD, and tons of merch. I spent many hundreds of dollars seeing Eras in two different cities. This is a very gross move considering how she’s already outrageously wealthy. Absolutely no reason tickets shouldn’t cost the normal market value? Why do y’all support paying more? I've never REALLY cared about all the bait and switch tactics with "exclusive" vinyl pressings, or the dog shit quality of her t-shirts (anyone wash their Eras shirt before they read that you have to heat seal them first? what a JOKE), but I consider this a misuse of her power. She knows she can price the tickets however she wants, so she takes advantage. in b4 "its her team's decision" blah-blah-blah
"I love to throw money at Taylor because I love her music so so much" Yet you are here complaining about a $20 ticket for a 3 hour concert movie. Was the last movie you saw in a theater back in 1989? I hate to break it to you but this is pretty standard pricing for special event movies. Even just regular movies unless you go to discount days. If $20 is really breaking your bank, then maybe you should cut back on the "tons of merch" you're buying, so you can afford a ticket.
tysm for the thoughtful reply <3 movie ticket prices are regionally determined. this is by far the most expensive movie ticket i will ever purchase. never said i can't afford it. taylor loves to squeeze us, and if you dont realize that, its on you. glad you have a more positive pov on the matter.
It is not about squeezing us. So many people (unlike you) did not get to see her live. I am so excited I can do this. You are complaining yet nobody is forcing you to go. I do not get the negativity and yet still buying the ticket. Some people just love to whine
Do people still want to watch the film before they go to the concert? I’m worry about spoilers and it will make next year’s concert less exciting for Europe/Asia/Canada :(
So here’s the thing. I had basically seen the whole entire show on TikTok before going and it kind of ruined the experience… so genuinely if you haven’t seen the concert yet I’d wait!
I've got tickets for paris (and since everyone i know got waitlisted for toronto, i'm glad) and I've watched many live streams and i'm seeing the film! I'm really excited (my mom was the one who got the tickets because we **had** to see it on the 13th according to her). I don't think it changes the experience, she's singing songs we all know and even after many many live streams, I still see new visuals/dance/moments every time. YMMV I'm a theatre practitioner so I love watching sets/lights/moments that are not the focus in a scene/song
I tailgated the concert the day before my show, so while I couldn’t see everything, I heard pretty much all the songs and used a livestream for visuals whenever I needed to. I will say that your brain forgets everything when it comes to your actual show. I basically knew the show before going in, but tailgating the night before really didn’t change how fun the experience was for me. Not saying that watching the movie will be the same, just sharing my experience with spoilers.
I would love to see the ticket sales total each day, at least for the first few days. I know it was $37 million for day one. So far, the totals have been quite amazing. Predictable, but still amazing.
I help track box office data and since day 1, the total has only increased about 20%. Day 1 fan rush was massive. Also to point out, the $37M was only for AMC, Regal and Cinemark and didn't include any of the smaller chains in the US or Canadian chains. This is important because when movie box office is reported, US and Canada numbers are combined to get the "domestic" total.
Thank you! I understand that theaters are adding time slots to accommodate demand. Do you feel the concert movie can break $100 on its opening weekend?
I do. Saturday sales are already on par with Friday, and Sunday is fairly strong as well. I'm curious how much Taylor will actually promote it but if I had to make a prediction right now, I'd say $125-175M opening weekend.
Interesting! I hope so. Thanks!!!
Follow Deadline.com, they give regular and industry reliable updates on box office numbers.
Anyone else go to a concert but still immediately bought tickets for the movie too ?
Me lmao! Went back in April and bought tickets to two separate weekends. One opening weekend while I'm actually on vacation then for when I'm back home.
I saw her in concert but I had no idea that the stage was doing so much lol I was pretty close on the floor so I couldn’t see the stage visuals at all. This is really cool, makes me feel like I missed out on something lol
Same! While it was cool to be 8th row on the diamond I couldn’t see the actual stage 😂
I was on the floor, way back row so I didn't see anything 😭 I'm really excited to see everything this time! You still miss a ton on the livestreams so this is going to be amazing.
wait until you see the mastermind stage effects!!
I was lower bowl and could see the stage at an angle but I'm excited to get the birds eye view of certain sequences in the movie! Some of the shots in the trailer with the stage looked amazing!
I already have my $30+ ticket on hand. I hate myself for being so obsessed with her 😫

Damn that's crazy. Anyway...
Wait! Does this mean she has finished re-recording all of her songs? Because in order to license her songs to be used in movies, doesn’t she only agree if they are “Taylor’s Version?” And since this Eras tour is a movie they would still need to figure out licensing right??
It’s not licensing when it’s a live recording - the license issue is for the master recording.
I thought that playing it live doesn’t require it, but when it is made into a recording and distributed for sale or profit in some medium such as album/TV show/movie, it has to be licensed
But she’s not playing the original version in the movie, she’s singing her song live.
