The premiere had a star-studded turnout, with celebs like Rachel Zegler and even pop queen Beyoncé! Speaking about Queen B Taylor said: "She’s taught me and every artist out here to break rules and defy industry norms. Her generosity of spirit, her resilience and versatility... She’s been a guiding light throughout my career and the fact that she showed up tonight was like an actual fairy tale.’"

The Eras tour kicked off on 17 March 2023, spanning 146 dates across five continents and will finish on 23 November next year. The show features 44 of Taylor Swifts songs. The movie will be released in the UK on Friday, but Swift has announced last-minute "early access screenings" for fans in the US, due to "unprecedented demand". Lucky things!

The star took the time to take pictures with her fans at the premiere. The movie has already broken records, earning more than $100m (£83.2m) in advance global ticket sales alone. That makes it the biggest concert film of all time, overtaking Justin Bieber's 'Never Say Never', which made $99m (£80.5m) in 2011.

Unlike normal films, the three-hour extravaganza fans will only be able to buy tickets on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. It is also expected to have a limited release of around four weeks.
