Taylor Swift wrapped up her Eras Tour in Portugal with two spectacular shows at Lisbon’s Estádio da Luz. The pop icon wowed her fans with dazzling outfits, creative mash-ups, and a special live performance that left the audience in awe.
On the final night of her tour in Portugal, Taylor Swift gave her fans a special treat by performing the title track from her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, live for the first time. This segment had been highly anticipated by fans ever since the release of her 11th studio album. The 34-year-old singer looked stunning in an ombre pink halter-neck flowy dress, a new addition to her Eras Tour wardrobe, as she took the stage for the acoustic set.
Acoustic Magic
Taylor surprised the audience with an acoustic mash-up of the TTPD title track and “Now That We Don’t Talk” from her re-recorded album, 1989 (Taylor’s Version). She played her signature brown guitar, adding a personal touch to the performance. The acoustic version allowed her to showcase her vocal talents in a more intimate setting, creating a magical atmosphere that captivated the crowd.
More Surprises for Fans
The surprises didn’t stop there. Taylor went on to perform another unexpected mash-up that included the fan-favorite “Long Live” from Speak Now and “You’re On Your Own, Kid” from Midnights. “Long Live” had been removed from the setlist earlier, so its return in this surprise segment thrilled the audience. She played this unique rendition on a piano adorned with vibrant, painted flowers, adding a visual delight to the performance.
