It was Taylor Swift week in Canada, after the singer announced she was finally – finally – bringing her Eras Tour to Canada, for a six-night stint at Toronto’s Rogers Centre in November, 2024. For many (or, probably, most) Canadian Swifties, excitement turned to anticipation turned to disappointment, as a massive demand resulted in relatively few fans being given Verified Fan codes – which grant the ability to try to buy tickets – and even fewer securing tickets. Whether you got tickets or not – or if you were just following along with the headlines – we’ve put together a quiz to test your Eras Tour knowledge.
c. March 17, 2023, in Glendale, Ariz. The Eras Tour, which Swift first announced on Nov. 1, 2022, is Swift’s first since 2018.
d. 2.4 million. After breaking the record for ticket presales on Nov. 15, 2022 – causing Ticketmaster’s website to crash as a result of unprecedented demand – Ticketmaster cancelled the public ticket sale, leading to outcry and calls for an antitrust investigation of the ticket retailer.
b. To commemorate each ‘era’ in Swift’s career so far. The ‘eras’ in Swift’s career largely correspond to her 10 albums, and are reflected onstage with wardrobe and elaborate set changes.
b. 146. Swift’s 146-date tour will span the U.S., Mexico, Australia, South America, Europe, Asia and Canada. The tour is on track to amass more than $1-billion in ticket sales.
c. 41,500. Concert capacity for the Rogers Centre is generally higher than for a Jays game, hovering at around 50,000 seats, making the estimated six-night capacity for Swift’s Canadian Eras Tour run around 300,000.
