10 Best Moments From Taylor Swift’s Final Eras Show: The Surprise Songs, Group Hug and ‘Lasting Legacy’ of the Tour

“It was the end of an era, but the start of an age.”
Taylor Swift sang these words as the final performance of her globe-spanning, blockbuster-selling Eras tour came to a close on Sunday night (Dec. 8) at BC Place Stadium in Vancouver, tucking some fan service into a piano rendition of “Long Live” during her acoustic set. Astute listeners noticed the lyrical discrepancy — the correct line is “end of a decade” — and cheered on the edit, a small but meaningful acknowledgment of the moment’s magnitude.
The Eras tour has featured major announcements, surprise performers and significant set list changes during different shows over its nearly two-year life span, but none of those shocks occurred on Sunday night as the stadium trek came to an end. Instead, Swift positioned the tour closer as a chance to commemorate everything the Eras run had accomplished, both as one of the most jaw-dropping pop shows ever constructed and as a space for millions of Swifties to gather, bond, shout along and feel seen. “I couldn’t be more proud of you,” Swift told her audience midway through the performance. And so she gave them the Eras show that she and her crew had so meticulously crafted, and that the world had embraced to record-breaking effect.
Of course, the very last Eras show required some special details nestled within the set list, so the Vancouver crowd was given a doozy of an acoustic set, multiple wholehearted speeches from Swift, and an outpouring of emotion following the final song. Sunday night’s performance felt noteworthy for those who had seen the show before, but functioned as the same long-running, three-hour-plus thrill ride for those who hadn’t. The end of Eras marks the conclusion of one of the defining tours of the modern music industry — but in Vancouver on Sunday night, the show was the same wondrous fan experience that it’s always been.
Here are the 10 best moments of the final Eras tour, in chronological order.
