“Can I ask you a question…?” Sure, if you’re taking kids to see Taylor Swift on The Eras Tour. Billboard Family is here to provide answers to all your questions, and to some questions you didn’t even know you had, about this massive cultural event.
Eras Tour tickets, ages, outfits, friendship bracelets explained, songs to know, bag policies and what to bring, start and end times, weather tips and more: Here’s what you need to know before your family goes sees Swift live in Miami (Oct. 18, 19, 20), New Orleans (Oct. 25, 26, 27), Indianapolis (Nov. 1, 2, 3), Toronto (Nov. 14, 15, 16, 21, 22, 23) or Vancouver (Dec. 6, 7, 8) on the final run of The Eras Tour.
Why take this author’s advice?
1.) I’ve attended The Eras Tour with kids (for fun) and without (for work, also fun) — and can confirm they make for different experiences.
2.) I’m a parent, with all the anxieties that come along with it. I happen to be a parent who first said hello to Swift, then in her country era, at an industry meet and greet when my eldest child was in the womb; now we’re a family of five, with three kids raised on Swift’s music.
3.) I’ve got an extraordinarily vast knowledge of everything Eras as I’ve followed every concert online, updating Billboard‘s sweeping list of all the surprise songs Swift’s performed on this tour.
I’m hopeful this guide will help other parents bringing kids to their first concert, or at least their first concert of this magnitude. Last year I bought last-minute tickets to see Swift with my kids on The Eras Tour at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts — the weekend of the rainiest rain show ever, or what Swift fondly remembers as “a full-on deluge” — and for Billboard, I attended on an earlier weekend at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, to report on this tour that would go on to become a historic, nearly 150-show journey.
