The Eras Tour was the sixth concert tour by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It began in Glendale, Arizona, United States, on March 17, 2023, and concluded in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, on December 8, 2024. Spanning 149 shows in 51 cities across five continents, the Eras Tour had a large cultural and socioeconomic impact. It became the highest-grossing tour of all time and the first to earn over $1 billion and $2 billion in revenue.
Swift designed the tour as a retrospective tribute to all of her studio albums and their corresponding musical "eras". Running over 3.5 hours, the set list consisted of over 40 songs grouped into 10 acts that portrayed each album's mood and aesthetic. The show was revamped in May 2024 to incorporate her eleventh studio album, The Tortured Poets Department (2024). Critics praised the Eras Tour for its concept, production, and immersive ambience, as well as Swift's vocals, stage presence, and versatile showmanship.
The tour recorded unprecedented public demand, ticket sales and attendances, bolstering economies, businesses, and tourism worldwide, dominating social media and news cycles, and garnering tributes from governments and organizations. This also gave rise to multifarious issues: ticketing crashes that inspired a string of anti-scalping laws and price regulation policies; scrutiny of Ticketmaster for monopoly by US authorities; diplomatic tensions in Southeast Asia due to Singapore's exclusivity grant; poor venue management in Rio de Janeiro resulting in a death; a failed ISIS plot to attack the tour in Vienna; and a political scandal in the UK.
Swift disclosed and released various works throughout the tour: the re-recorded albums Speak Now (Taylor's Version) and 1989 (Taylor's Version) in 2023; editions of Midnights (2022) and The Tortured Poets Department; the music videos of "Karma", "I Can See You", and "I Can Do It with a Broken Heart"; and "Cruel Summer" as a single. An accompanying concert film, documenting the Los Angeles shows, was released to theaters worldwide on October 13, 2023, in an uncommon distribution deal circumventing major film studios. Met with critical acclaim, the film became the highest-grossing concert film in history. A self-published photo book of the tour, The Eras Tour Book, was released on November 29, 2024. The tour's accolades include an iHeartRadio Music Award for Tour of the Century and six Guinness World Records.

Rolling Stone{{'s}} Waiss David Aramesh opined that it is "a production spectacle of the highest echelon".

| quote=Taylor Swift keeps building the legend of her Eras Tour, week after week, city by city, making every night so much longer, wilder, louder, more jubilant than it has to be. There's nothing in history to compare. This is her best tour ever, by an absurd margin. It's a journey through her past, starring all the different Taylors she's ever been, which means all the Taylors that you've ever been.

Jaw Shaw-kong, vice-presidential candidate of the opposition (Kuomintang party), claimed he invited Swift to perform at the Taipei Dome and that she initially agreed to perform but later declined due to "geopolitical risks" of the sensitive Cross-Strait relations.

In October 2024, controversy ensued in the UK when it was reported that politicians of the ruling Labour Party were gifted with over £20,000 in free tickets to the Eras Tour after Swift's demands for the highest level of security were denied, with the politicians allegedly pressuring the Metropolitan Police to give in to the demands.{{Cite news |last=Buchanan |first=Abigail |date=October 11, 2024 |title=How Labour's love affair with Taylor Swift backfired |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/10/11/labour-party-taylor-swift-cooper-starmer-security-seg-met/ |access-date=October 15, 2024 |newspaper=The Daily Telegraph }} In advance of the London dates, Swift's team had reportedly demanded additional "VVIP" security from the Metropolitan Police's Special Escort Group and threatened to cancel the London shows if not provided. The police initially turned down the request, claiming their intelligence did not detect any threat to Swift's London shows and hence she did not require the top-level "taxpayer-funded" security reserved for heads of state.{{Cite news |last=Swinford |first=Steven |date=October 15, 2024 |title=Keir Starmer and his family 'met Taylor Swift at London concert' |url=https://www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/article/keir-starmer-taylor-swift-sbz6mx3hn |access-date=October 16, 2024 |newspaper=The Times}} However, the police subsequently reversed its decision and provided Swift with the requested protection.

- At the third Tampa show and the second Pittsburgh show, Swift reversed the order of the instruments she used to perform the surprise songs, playing the first on piano with Aaron Dessner and the second on acoustic guitar.
- At the third Foxborough show, Swift performed both surprise songs on acoustic guitar due to technical difficulties with the piano caused by the previous night's rain.{{Cite magazine |last=Dailey |first=Hannah |date=May 22, 2023 |title=Taylor Swift Reacts to Malfunctioning Ghostly Piano During Eras Tour Show: 'Is That Happening?!' |url=https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/taylor-swift-piano-malfunction-reaction-eras-tour-1235333657/ |url-status=live |magazine=Billboard |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230522163020/https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/taylor-swift-piano-malfunction-reaction-eras-tour-1235333657/ |archive-date=May 22, 2023 |access-date=May 22, 2023}}

Looking out into crowds of 90,000 fans each night and hearing that VOLUME… Those were some of the loudest crowds I've ever heard. Acoustic sections went OFF. I got to sing 'Castles Crumbling' with @yelyahwilliams for the first time – hadn't performed with her since 2011 and man my heart was just so full of love for her and our friendship. Then the impossibly gifted and wonderful @gracieabrams came and surprised the crowd with the first performance of our song 'us.' And I'm still cracking up/swooning over @killatrav's Eras Tour debut 🥰 Never going to forget these shows. Can't wait to do it 5 more times in August.
