Taylor Swift Concerts and Events in Vancouver in 2024

June 12, 2024

The world-famous artist Taylor Swift has concerts in Vancouver in December 2024! There are also Swift-themed events to check out before then.

Taylor Swift is arguably the biggest artist in the world right now and people will be coming from all over the world to see her. The concerts take place at BC Place Stadium on December 6th to 8th. Before then, however, there are other pre-concert events, including one at Playland on June 15th.

Taylor Swift Events in Vancouver

Taylor Swift has turned into a pop culture juggernaut in recent years. The American singer-songwriter was the best-selling music artist in both 2022 and 2023 and could well hold the title again this year! She’s currently in the middle of a nearly two-year long concert tour, entitled the Eras Tour.

The Eras Tour began in Arizona in March of last year, and includes 152 shows in over 20 countries. The many stops include Vancouver, where she’ll play three concerts in early December, 2024. In fact, Vancouver is the very last stop on the tour!

December isn’t the only time to celebrate Taylor Swift for fans in the Lower Mainland. Playland had a special Eras Tour-themed event on June 15th.

The Eras Tour at BC Place

The three Taylor Swift Vancouver shows take place on December 6th, 7th and 8th at BC Place. The stadium has a capacity of over 50,000 seats, and it’ll be packed for each of the three shows. The tour is a massive event!

Tickets for the Vancouver shows went on sale in November of last year. They sold out more or less instantly! Tickets available for resale in other markets have sometimes gone for thousands of dollars. Many Swifties (ardent Taylor Swift fans) have actually found it cheaper to fly to other countries and buy tickets for shows there!

Swift’s performance on the Eras Tour runs for over three hours and includes around 45 songs. She’s preceded at the Vancouver shows by Gracie Abrams, a young American pop artist. Abrams is one of the most common opening acts on the Eras Tour.

What is the Eras Tour?

The Eras Tour is Taylor Swift’s most extravagant concert tour yet. It has its name because the show is split up into her different “eras” as a performer, with three different stages and the set design, costumes and special effects changing dramatically between the various sections of the concert. The set list pulls songs from all 10 of Swift’s studio albums. Entertainment critics have compared the concert to a Broadway show.

By the end of 2023, despite the tour only being half done, it was already the highest-grossing concert tour of all-time. The Eras Tour is the first concert tour to gross over $1 billion. It could potentially rise to $2 billion by the time it ends in December.

The tour was further supported by the release of the movie Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour. Three separate concerts from early in the tour were filmed and combined into one concert film released in October of last year. The movie version of the concert is condensed slightly, but is still close to three hours long. It became the highest-grossing concert film of all time, making over $250 million at the box office.

Playland Eras Night

For those in Metro Vancouver who wanted to celebrate Taylor Swift (and have the chance to win tickets to her show!) there was the Playland Eras Night on Saturday, June 15th.

Those in attendance could enjoy all of the amusement rides and other fun Playland has to offer along with special Swift-themed bonuses. There were special friendship bracelets for the first 500 guests, a Taylor Swift drag queen impersonator, and Taylor Swift music playing all over the park. Best of all, everyone who attended was entered into a draw to win two tickets to one of the Eras Tour concerts in December!

The Taylor Swift event at Playland ran from 6:00 pm to 11:00 pm on July 15th. Tickets cost $45 for the thrill pass (which included access all the rides) and $33 for the fun pass (which only had access to the rides geared towards young children).
