Earlier on the same day, Los Angeles braced for Swift-induced excitement as The Grove, a renowned shopping center, announced the complete closure of its complex for the event.

“Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” is set to open in over 8,000 theaters globally, documenting Swift’s record-breaking tour, which kicked off in March and featured a 44-song setlist spanning her diverse career albums.
