After Dark: Eras Edition

Early bird tickets on sale for $39

Get ready to Shake It Off at a special After Dark! Join us on Wednesday, December 4, 2024, for an evening of sing-along dance party, Swift-inspired trivia, sound science, and so much more.

Show up in your best era-inspired look, swap friendship bracelets with fellow fans. Didn’t bring one? No worries—make your own at our feature station: friendship bracelets with a science spin!

This unique, Taylor-made After Dark event is adults-only (19+), happening for one night only. Just like the concert tix, these are expected to sell out fast.
