Taylor Swift has concluded her epic Eras tour with one final show in Canada in 1989, days after losing control of her music.

The “Anti-Hero” singer has been on the road since March 2023, giving a total of 152 concerts around the world and breaking several records. Swift said goodbye to Eras while on stage at Vancouver’s BC Place, telling the crowd: “XXX”

The 34-year-old began her tour more than five years after she lost control of her music in a well-documented battle with talent manager Scooter Braun.

He acquired the rights to much of Swift’s music in 2019 when he bought Big Machine Records, reportedly paying around $300 million. Swift recorded her first six albums –Taylor Swift (2006), Fearless (2008), Speak Now (2010), Red (2012), 1989 (2014) and Call (2017) – with the label, and it owned the masters.

The singer, who signed with Republic Records in 2018, posted a message on Tumblr about the sale, saying she had long asked to own her own music and that Braun had “robbed me of my life’s work.” Since then, she has openly expressed her desire to regain control of her previous material.

In 2020, Swift announced that she would be re-recording her music to take back control, writing on Full of Surprises.

Fearless (Taylor’s version) And Red (Taylor’s version) were released in 2021 and Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) was presented in July 2023.

Then, in August 2023, Swift concluded the first half of Eras with this announcement 1989 (Taylor’s version) was on the way.

“Ever since I was a teenager I wanted to own my music and the way to do that was to re-record my albums and name them Taylor’s version” she told the cheering crowd at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.

“The way you embraced that, the way you celebrated that. You really decided that it was your fight too and that you were behind me 100% and if it was important to me, it was important to you… Thank you for that.” That was so generous of you to care about something, that is close to my heart.”

Swift kicked off her tour in March 2023 in Glendale, Arizona and traveled throughout the United States before continuing on to South America, Asia, Australia and Europe.

On stage in Liverpool in June 2024, she told fans that the tour had “become my whole life.”

“It took over everything,” she said. “I think I used to have hobbies, but I can’t remember what they were because when I’m not on stage I just sit at home and try to think of clever acoustic song mashups and think about what. “You might want to hear it. When I’m not on stage, I dream of being on stage with you again.

Swift added that the Eras tour was “the most exhausting, comprehensive, but joyful, rewarding and wonderful thing” that had ever happened to her.
