Taylor Swift has announced two further shows at Wembley Stadium next summer, where she’ll be supported by Paramore.
The music icon had already lined up six dates at the national stadium in London, which went on sale earlier this year.
Now, to cope with phenomenal demand, it’s been announced that two further news shows will take place on August 19 and 20, which means that the singer will now play a total of eight dates at the venue.
A limited number of fans who previously registered for shows in London will be selected for access to the sale and will receive notifications via email starting today (November 14).
Taylor is currently set to to kick off the UK leg of the Eras Tour with dates at Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium on June 7 and 8, before heading to Liverpool’s Anfield Stadium for two shows on June 14 and 15.
Swift is currently on the South American leg of the Eras tour and interrupted the Evermore portion of her Buenos Aires concert on Sunday night to tell fans not to throw things on stage. “It really freaks me out,” she said, as she gently explained why the act of pelting “gifts” on stage is a terrible idea.
“Because communication means having gentle, healthy boundaries, it really freaks me out when stuff gets thrown on the stage, because if it’s on the stage then a dancer can trip on it,” Swift said. “I love that you brought presents and that is so nice, but just can you please not throw them on the stage. I love you so much.”
On Nov. 11, Swift became the most-nominated Song of the Year nominee in Grammy history after receiving a nod for ‘Anti-Hero’. Swift also tied the record (alongside Barbra Streisand) for most nominations in the Album of the Year category for a female artist, with a nod for Midnights. ‘Anti-Hero’ is also up for Record of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance. Meanwhile, Midnights is also nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album, and ‘Karma’ with Ice Spice is vying for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.
