Taylor kicked off her birthday — she turns 29 today — by revealing that Netflix will air a Reputation Stadium Tour concert special on New Year’s Eve. She also debuted the trailer for it.
“Today I finally get to show you something we’ve been working on for a while,” Taylor wrote on her Instagram. [T]he trailer for the Reputation Stadium Tour! The entire concert film will premiere on @netflix at 12:01AM PST December 31.”
She goes on: “You made this tour so insanely fun for all of us on stage, and I’m really excited that we will have this memento of the memories we all made together this year. I also got to share the stage with such wildly talented people @camila_cabello, @charli_xcx, my band and dancers who shine so brightly in this film. You’re the best. Thank you for everything.”
Taylor’s recently wrapped Reputation stadium tour broke the record for the highest-grossing U.S. tour, according to Billboard, grossing more than any other U.S. trek since Billboard began tracking touring data in 1990. That translates to just over $266 million in domestic earnings on sales of just over 2.07 million tickets, breaking the record set by The Rolling Stones in 2007, when they raked in $245 million from their A Bigger Bang tour. But notably, the Stones took 70 shows to hit that dollar amount; Taylor did it in just 38.
Taylor also broke her own record for highest-grossing domestic tour by a woman: She’d previously set it in 2015 with her 1989 World Tour, which earned $181.5 million.
