As excitement builds for Swift’s concert, which has already sold out, the residents of Liverpool have devised a creative way to honor the singer. Taylor Town will feature art exhibitions showcasing the country’s rich culture and heritage. Additionally, music and Swift-themed craft workshops will be held to stimulate the local economy.

Taylor Town will be open to visitors from June 8 to June 16, coinciding with Swift’s performance at Anfield Stadium on June 13 as part of her Eras Tour.

Attractions at Taylor Town

The City Council of Liverpool, in partnership with the social enterprise Make CIC, will host the event. Across various locations in the city, Swift’s 11 eras will be showcased as part of the Eras Tour trail, including Liverpool ONE, Royal Albert Dock, and Metquarter. Notable features along the trail will include a giant moss-covered piano symbolizing the Evermore era and oversized hearts paying homage to the Lover era.

Craft stalls offering Swift-themed activities, such as making Swift-Tees and creative items from recycled denim, will be set up along the exhibition route. Other attractions include collage and cupcake making, all inspired by Swift’s songs and albums.

The University of Liverpool will also host the Tay-Day event on June 12, where students will engage in debates and analysis of the singer’s work, particularly focusing on the Midnight’s singer. Additionally, the Institute of Popular Music will organize a concert and discussion featuring delegates from across Europe.

What did the head of the University of Liverpool say about the arrangements?

Dr. Sam Murray, the University of Liverpool’s head, shared perspectives on the anticipation surrounding Taylor Swift’s arrival in the city. He expressed, “The musical, social, and economic influence of Taylor Swift is undeniable. We’re eager to initiate discussions on her multifaceted persona, from being both Miss Americana and an anti-hero, to exploring her style, wildest dreams, and reputation.”

The European leg of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour is projected to inject £997 million into the U.K.’s economy.
