Secured your Era’s tour ticket and getting over excited already? Crying because you haven’t but, you still want the fun? Wanting to relive the magic of the show(s) you attended? You’ve come to the right place.

I’m here to show you how to hold your very own Era’s tour from the comfort of your own home. I’m talking karaoke, dance moves, a stage, the lot! Baby, let the games begin…

No tour is complete without a ticket! By now we’ve all experienced the pain, or triumph of trying to get an Era’s tour ticket (we’re looking at you Ticketmaster)!

Luckily I’ve made it easy for your friends to secure a ticket to your Era’s tour with ticket invites in the ultimate Era’s tour party pack.

Once downloaded just add the date, time and location of your Era’s party to the file and then you can either email/message or print these out for your friends.

Going for the physical option?

You’ll need some good card make sure your printer can use card first though.

Not only are these tickets a lovely addition to your home party, but they make the perfect keepsake for your guests. You could even go the extra mile and laminate them so they’ll last forever.

And if you are lucky enough to be going to the Eras tour, and your purchasing tickets for someone's birthday or Christmas. These tickets make the perfect addition to announce that they're going to see Taylor live.

Instead of just saying "I got you Taylor Swift Tickets" make a spectacle of it, print these of and put in the ACTUAL location, seats, section, and row and wrap it up for them.

#2 Pre-Party

What’s an Era’s tour without friendship bracelets? Why not get crafty before the party and make a bracelet for everyone on your guestlist, even better, why not get all your friends round for a bracelet making pre-party?

#3 The Setlist

The setlist is no secret, at the time of writing this Taylor only has 11 shows of her US leg left! That’s not to say it won’t change though. I mean, in total she’s going to be doing 131 shows across 5 continents, she might want to swich some things up!!

Each night is around 3 hours 15 mins long with a whopping 44 songs split into 10 eras, wowie - I’m tired just writing that!

Where to find the songs

Where can I find the Taylor Swift Era’s setlist? I’m glad asked, personally, I like this on Spotify. I won’t lie, I listen to it A LOT; when I’m working, when I’m cleaning, when I’m showering (some of best performances), heck I may as well just say, when I’m awake (don’t worry, I skip the stolen versions)!

YouTube

I’ve also managed to find the Taylor Swift Eras tour setlist on YouTube, check out the below playlist for the YouTube version which consists of 43 songs in order.

The Surprise Songs

As we all probably know by now, Taylor also performs two surprise songs every night, she does both of these acoustically, one on the piano and one on the guitar.

Be sure to add your own surprise songs with your setlist. How about performing these yourself with your very own Karaoke Era?

#4 Karaoke

I get it, for some people karaoke may not sound like your cup of tea but, come on kids, singing is FUN!

I mean it though, I recently went to a Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) release night party here in Manchester (yes, it was as amazing as it sounds), they had 3 rooms and the karaoke room had the best vibes by far – what could be better than an entire room of people who all love the same artist signing or, in my case screeching, along with each other?

Sure, not all of us can sing well, me included, but when you’re surrounded by your friends at an at home Era’s tour party, who cares? I know I don’t!

Here’s a fab karaoke machine if you don’t already have one.

You can of course YouTube your favourite Taylor song and add Karaoke to the end and sing so loud you wont need a karaoke machine.

#5 The Dance Moves

There’s no rules here, you groove the way you want to groove! Although we can’t forget Mikael Arellano’s ICONIC Bejewelled dance routine so remember to wiggle those fingers to Shimmer!

Got a spare chair? Why not give it your best Vigilante sh*t moves! Got it in you to recreate the Delicate dance? Go for it!

Why not make up your own dance routine? You never know, you could be like Mikael and get to see Taylor herself dance them on stage!

#7 What to wear

With so many era’s to choose from you’re spoilt for choice on what to wear to an Era’s tour party, luckily, I’ve done the hard work for you with my pick for each Era.

#8 Taylor Swift Food and Drink

Food wise, I would get all your favourite savoury snacks, I’ll be getting crisps, pretzels, cheese and onion rolls (yep, I’m a classic vegetarian).

Just check out some of the recipes here on Smartblend if you’re in need of inspiration.

For those sweet treats, I’ll be putting my oven, and baking skills, to the test by whipping up some cupcakes. I’m going to keep the buttercream/frosting simple and then I’m planning on going WILD with edible glitter, I’ll be using the Monégasque one which you can find on Amazon;

#9 Games

We can’t all have the stamina of Taylor Swift and sing for over 3 hours, you’ll need breaks! Our Era’s Tour Party Pack has you covered with a quiz, finish the lyric (I’ll give you bonus points for singing), crosswords, code breakers and more! Once again, you can find the party pack here.

#10 Long Live….the party

You’re going to be having an epic night but don’t forget to take some pictures of all your guests, green room style. You’ll need a backdrop for your pictures and seeing as this is the Era’s tour why not get different coloured tassel curtains for each Era and hang them in separate doorways/walls?

Capture the moment

Obviously you’ll need a camera as well, I’m going to go for a polaroid or instax one and with whatever ones are left behind I’ll be adding them all to a frame.
