2-8-2023 (LOS ANGELES) Taylor Swift’s highly anticipated Eras Tour is already making history, projected to be the biggest in concert history, with the potential to gross over US$1 billion (S$1.33 billion), according to The Wall Street Journal. The tour has been a massive success, drawing fans from around the world to witness Swift’s captivating performances.
But it’s not just Taylor Swift who is benefiting from the tour’s success.

With approximately 50 truckers on her team, Swift’s gesture adds up to an astounding US$5 million in bonuses for the hardworking crew.
However, Swift’s generosity doesn’t end there. People Magazine revealed that she also extended her gratitude to “everyone working her show,” including dancers, riggers, sound technicians, and caterers. The Lavender Haze singer is leaving no stone unturned to show appreciation to her dedicated crew. With bonuses awarded to various crew members, the total value of these rewards has surpassed an astonishing US$55 million.
As the US leg of the Eras Tour comes to an end, Swift is set to make history yet again. She will be performing six shows at SoFi Stadium, becoming the first-ever act to schedule six performances on a single tour at the iconic venue.
Looking ahead, Swift will bring her sensational performances to the Singapore National Stadium, where she is scheduled to perform five dates starting from Mar 2. The announcement of her Singapore shows has already created a buzz, with fans eagerly competing for tickets, making it a memorable event that Singaporeans are eagerly anticipating.
