Taylor Swift has announced the addition of 14 new ‘Eras’ tour dates in the UK and EU –  with Paramore serving as support – with the shows now seemingly ruling her out as a potential Glastonbury headliner.The new dates include additional shows in Paris, Sweden, Portugal, Lyon, Edinburgh, Liverpool, London, Dublin, Amsterdam, Milan, Gelsenkirchen, Poland and Austria.The three dates at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium fall on the same weekend as Glastonbury 2024, ruling out the possibility of the pop icon headlining the iconic music festival in Somerset.Swift was recently linked to being one of the two female headliners booked for next year’s edition of the festival due to the previous gaps in her touring schedule that coincided with the 2024 festival dates.Really can’t contain my excitement because… we’re adding 14 new shows to The Eras Tour.

She was wearing a blanket over her head with sunglasses over the top in a reference to the characters who torment Swift in the video for her recent hit ‘Anti-Hero’.The woman had travelled from Louisville to the show with a friend, also disguised in a blanket, and had previously seen the ‘Eras’ show in Nashville.
