When Taylor Swift premieres a movie, she pulls out all the stops.
For Wednesday night’s Los Angeles debut of her new concert film, Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, the singer took over The Grove shopping center, filling the AMC Theatre with fans, loved ones and celebrity guests (ahem, Beyoncé!).
In an X post ahead of the premiere, the 33-year-old wrote a letter to her fans around the world.
“I can’t thank you enough for wanting to see this film that so vividly captures my favorite adventure I’ve ever been a part of: The Eras Tour. And the best part is, it’s an adventure we’re still on together,” she shared.
Here, the best photos from Wednesday night’s premiere, ahead of Friday’s release of Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour.

Icons only! Beyoncé made a surprise appearance, with Swift paying tribute to her “guiding light” in an Instagram post following the premiere.
“I’m so glad I’ll never know what my life would’ve been like without @beyonce‘s influence,” Swift began the heartfelt Instagram caption, which was written alongside a boomerang video that showed her and Beyoncé inside the movie theater. “The way she’s taught me and every artist out here to break rules and defy industry norms. Her generosity of spirit.”
