Taylor Swift has added more special guests for her London ‘Eras Tour’ concerts.
The 34-year-old pop superstar is already bringing Paramore with her, but she has now confirmed Mette will play Wembley Stadium on June 21, Griff on June 22, and Benson Boone on June 23.
She shared on Instagram: “I just found out Fortnight is #1 on the UK airplay chart!!!! You guys are amazing and I can’t wait to see you so soon! Thought this might be a fun time to announce the first group of opening acts I’ll be adding to the London shows, going on before Paramore.
“I chose artists whose music I love listening to, and I can’t wait for them to add an extra jolt of excitement to our shows at Wembley Stadium in June.”
An overjoyed Griff, 23, gushed: “TAYLOR SWIFT HAS INVITED ME ON THE ERAS TOUR!!!!!! 8 yr old me who had fearless on repeat wouldn’t believe this. So unbelievably grateful to Taylor for all the love she’s shown me and my music. See you at Wembley on June 22nd (sic).”
Mette, 32, commented: “It’s a new ERA for ya girl… Opening the “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour” on June 21st at Wembley Stadium in London. Thank you @taylorswift13 – Never been so excited in my entire life!!! #TSTheErasTour (sic).”
Benson, 21, penned on his Instagram Story: “@taylorswift so excited to be part of the show thank you for having me. (sic)”
Taylor is also playing additional shows at the venue between June 15 and 20.
The unveiling of her additional support acts comes after Taylor recently confessed she regrets missing out countries such as Portugal on her previous tours and admitted she won’t make the same mistake again.
Taylor performed in the country for the first time over the weekend when she took her ‘The Eras’ tour to Lisbon on Friday (24.05.24) and Saturday (25.05.24), and admitted she felt bad about failing to include the country on her previous treks.
During the Friday night show, Taylor told the audience at Estádio da Luz: “My big regret was that we didn’t get to take all of those tours to all of the places where I wanted to take them. And we absolutely should have come to Portugal on every single tour. This is not a mistake I will ever be making again. We are always going to come to Lisbon.”
After wrapping up the pair of gigs, Taylor later took to social media to express her gratitude to the Portuguese fans, writing: “It’s official, I left my [heart] in Lisbon.
“My first time in Portugal and you all made me feel like I was right at home. I’ll seriously never forget the way you treated us, the overwhelming love and passion and hands in the air and dancing and how you screamed every lyric!! Muito obrigada [thank you very much].”
