Taylor Swift Plans Surprise Songs, Kisses Travis Kelce & More in ‘End of an Era’ Trailer

Just over a year after the end of Taylor Swift‘s record-breaking Eras Tour, the singer will be giving fans behind-the-scenes access into the grueling project in the new docuseries Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era.

Swift announced the anticipated news on Good Morning America on the morning of Monday, October 13. Exactly month later, she shared a new trailer for the project with even more behind-the-scenes tidbits, including several glimpses of Travis Kelce (scroll down to see).

With the original announcement, Swift also confirmed she’ll be dropping a new concert film called The Eras Tour | The Final Show, which was filmed during her last Eras Tour concert in Vancouver on December 8, 2024. This will include The Tortured Poets Department set, which was not part of the original Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour film released in October 2023.

“It was the End of an Era and we knew it,” Swift shared on Instagram. “We wanted to remember every moment leading up to the culmination of the most important and intense chapter of our lives, so we allowed filmmakers to capture this tour and all the stories woven throughout it as it wound down. And to film the final show in its entirety.”

Is there a trailer for the Taylor Swift docuseries?

Yes, the full trailer for the docuseries came out on November 13. “I’m very aware of mysterious forces at play that I will never have any control of,” Swift says, as footage of her making her way to the stage plays. “This show created a bonding experience for, like, 70,000 people all at once. There’s something very special about that.”

Honestly can’t think of a better way to celebrate my (almost) birthday than to relive the Eras Tour with you! This time we’re going backstage. “The End of an Era”, a 6-episode behind-the-scenes docuseries, streams on @DisneyPlus beginning Dec 12 pic.twitter.com/VkJHLgjSFn

The clip then cuts to shots of Swift on stage, along with videos of the crowds going wild. “I came up with the idea for the Eras Tour about two years before the tour started,” the singer says, as footage shows the stage being built and her rehearsing for the show. “I wanted to over-serve the fans in terms of the amount of songs they were going to hear and how far I was going to push myself.”

There’s video of Swift doing a quick change under the stage and a behind-the-scenes look at how she got from one part of the stage to the next so quickly. “My main goal is to give something to the fans that they didn’t expect,” she explains. There’s shots of her and Sabrina Carpenter planning the latter’s surprise appearance, as well as footage of her rehearsing with Ed Sheeran for their duet.

“All the dancers, the choreographers, the production, designers, the crew, the entire band, every person is the best one in the entire industry,” Swift raves. Her mom, Andrea Swift, appears, gushing over how Kelce “brings a lot of happiness” around. There’s a lot of Kelce footage, including a shot of him and Swift talking on the phone while apart. The trailer ends with Swift explaining her surprise song choice for the final show to her mom.

Along with the original October announcement, a teaser for the doc was also revealed. The 1:30 clip features Swift’s narration in the form of a speech she gave her crew before hitting the stage one night.

“People like to talk about phenomenons,” she says, as footage shows her preparing to walk on stage. “Almost as if it was pieces falling into place, as if it just happened.” The camera cuts to shots of Swift getting her makeup done, rehearsing for the show, and bonding with her mom, Andrea Swift.

One shot features a board of sticky notes as Swift seemingly maps out her surprise song choices, and another clip shows her kissing Kelce on the cheek. Kelce is featured again later on as he practices carrying Swift across the stage for his cameo at her London show.

“The Eras Tour wasn’t when all the pieces fell into place,” Swift continues, as clips show parts of the show, as well as her running backstage during the quick changes. “This tour was just when every single one of us had done so much work, pushing inch by inch, to where we all clicked together.”

There are shots of Swift spending time with Abrams, Sheeran, Welch, and Carpenter backstage, as well as a quick glimpse of her in the studio, where she was recording her newly released album, The Life of a Showgirl.

“We have broken every single record you can break with this tour,” Swift adds, as a shot shows her hugging her parents backstage. “The only thing left is to close the book.”

In the last scene of the trailer, Swift is back in her hotel room, still wearing her bodysuit from the Midnights era of the show. As she’s filling up her bath and taking off her makeup, she tells the cameras, “I’ll not be able to get to sleep because I can’t, like, come down. I watch tons of TV, I eat room service in bed, I sign a box of 2,000 CDs, and then I’m tired. And then I have to do the whole thing again.”
