This weekend, the Windy City becomes the Swiftie City.
Starting Friday, June 2 and running until Sunday, June 4, Chicago’s Soldier Field will host Taylor Swift’s ongoing ‘Eras Tour’ and fans that waited to scoop up last-minute tickets are having their patience rewarded.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we found on Swift tix was $691 before fees on Vivid Seats.
While that may seem like a hefty price tag, it’s virtually nothing compared to earlier in the week.
As of Tuesday, May 30, ticket prices for the Taylor’s three-night residency started at a whopping $1297 before fees.
Therefore, if you held out until the first night of the ‘Eras Tour,’ you may have just saved over $600.
Think of it this way — you can score quite a few goodies at the merch table with those savings.
Sometimes “all of this silence and patience, pining in anticipation” as Taylor sings in the “Reputation” classic “Dress” really does pay off.

Taylor Swift opening acts
This Chi-City weekend, Taylor is bringing Girl In Red, OWENN, Gracie Abrams and MUNA with her on select dates of the three-night residency.
Here’s what you need to know about the established openers.
Girl In Red is the moniker for Marie Ulven Ringheim, a Norwegian-born singer-songwriter. Ringheim, who often records her indie pop in her own bedroom covers heavy topics like romance and mental health in her lyrics. It should be noted that you may also know Girl In Red by her Soundcloud handle, “Lydia X.”
OWENN, a powerful R&B singer, is the only male opening act on the “Eras Tour.” It’s possible that you may recognize him from Swift’s music video “Lover” where he played the romantic lead opposite Taylor. Haven’t heard his stuff? You’ll want to check out the catchy single “Baby Girl,” which will get you moving and grooving in no time.
Gracie Abrams, the daughter of film director JJ Abrams and producer Katie McGrath, is a star in her own right. Her song “I miss you, I’m sorry” has upwards of 100 million streams on Spotify, she opened for Olivia Rodrigo on the 2022 “Sour Tour” and headlined her own tour this spring as well.
MUNA is the brainchild of of Katie Gavin, Josette Maskin, and Naomi McPherson. At this point in their career, the trio has put out three albums, opened for Kacey Musgraves on her 2022 tour and had their cover of Britney Spears’ “Sometimes” featured in the film “Fire Island.”
