The docuseries features “an intimate look at Taylor’s life as her tour made headlines and thrilled fans around the world,” spotlighting “performers, family members, and friends” including Sabrina Carpenter, Gracie Abrams, Ed Sheeran and Florence Welch.

“The Final Show”, which also releases Dec. 12., is a full concert film of Swift’s final show on her Eras Tour at BC Place in Vancouver on Dec. 8, 2024.

The project features Swift’s entire “The Tortured Poets Department” set from the tour. She released the album during the Eras Tour, so the performances weren’t included in her previous “Eras Tour” concert film, which came out in Oct. 2023.

Swift posted the trailer for her new projects on Instagram with a message to her fans.

“It was the End of an Era and we knew it,” she wrote. “We wanted to remember every moment leading up to the culmination of the most important and intense chapter of our lives, so we allowed filmmakers to capture this tour and all the stories woven throughout it as it wound down. And to film the final show in its entirety.”

“The Eras Tour | The Final Show, featuring the entire Tortured Poets Department set, and the first two episodes of The End of an Era, a 6-episode behind-the-scenes docuseries will be yours December 12th on @disneyplus,” Swift added.

The trailer includes behind-the-scenes footage of Swift’s fiancé, Travis Kelce, from his appearance at the tour, including when he joined her on stage in London in June 2024.

During a recent interview on BBC Radio 1, Swift revealed she has no upcoming plans to go back on tour.

“I’m gonna be really honest with you. I am so tired,” she told host Greg James. “Like when I think about doing it again, I’d wanna do it really well again, you know?”

Swift also called the Eras Tour “the most exhausting challenge ever, physically,” but added that seeing her fans in the audience “fed me, fueled me, even when I was exhausted and tired.”
