Taylor Swift is expanding her Eras Tour even more, adding nearly 40 more stops from Japan to the UK going into 2024. On Tuesday (June 20), the "Anti Hero" singer shared on her social media accounts that she isn't stopping the momentum of her Eras Tour. After a break in December and January, the tour will kick back up again in Tokyo, Japan, on February 7.

The 33-year-old singer-songwriter will make stops in major cities across the world, including Melbourne and Sydney, Australia, Singapore, Paris, France,  Stockholm, Sweden, Lisbon, Portugal, Madrid, Spain, Edinburgh, Scotland, Liverpool, United Kingdom, London, England, Dublin, Ireland, Amsterdam, Netherlands, Zürich, Switzerland, Milan, Italy, Hamburg and Munich, Germany, Warsaw, Poland, Vienna, Austria, and more. Her tour will finally come to an end next August in London.

"EXCUSE ME HI I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY [raised hand emoji]. I can’t wait to see so many of you on The Eras Tour next year at these new international dates!" Swift wrote as part of her announcement. For more information on ticket sales, visit TaylorSwift.com/tour.

Sabrina Carpenter will join Swift as her opening act across all dates, including the previously announced Latin American shows. Earlier this month, Swift announced she will perform in Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil from the end of August until the end of November with Carpenter. At the time, Taylor teased that "LOTS more international dates to come soon, promise!"

Eras Tour Earnings

Currently, the "Karma" singer is midway through the US dates of her Eras Tour. She kicked things off in Arizona in March and is set to wrap this leg in Los Angeles on Aug. 9. The remaining cities she has left is Minneapolis, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Denver, Seattle, Santa Clara, then finally in LA. Earlier this month, Fortune predicted that the Eras tour could potentially generate $4.6 billion for local economies throughout the US based on how much ticket holders are spending to attend each show.

Additionally, Swift is gearing up for the July 7 release of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), which will include six brand-new songs from the vault. Swifties can pre-add the album here.

So, Who Will Play The Super Bowl Halftime Show In 2024?

The Super Bowl is not only the biggest event every year in the sporting world, it's also the biggest entertainment event. Even though the Halftime show is under 15 minutes, it is talked about for months in advance. And if the performance is successful, it'll be talked about for years afterward (and also be the subject of memes: we miss you, Left Shark!). Only the biggest names in music have had the honor to grace the stage: Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Aerosmith, NSYNC, Britney Spears, Janet Jackson, The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, the Who, Prince, The Black Eyed Peas, Madonna, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Coldplay, Bruno Mars, Katy Perry and The Weeknd.

Last year's Super Bowl LVI show took place in Inglewood, California's SoFi Stadium and featured California hip-hop legends Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg with Eminem, Mary J. Blige, Kendrick Lamar, 50 Cent and Anderson .Paak. This year, we now know that Rihanna is making her return to music by headlining the show. But that doesn't mean it's too early to talk about who might take the stage for Super Bowl LVIII.  Check out our predictions below.

Stevie Nicks

Stevie Nicks might have made sense in 2023, as she is an Arizona native, born in Phoenix. And she is currently on tour. Stevie is the first woman to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice: with Fleetwood Mac in 1998 and as a solo artist in 2019. More importantly, she's becoming rock's version of Dolly Parton: an icon beloved by all, no matter your generation or what type of music you listen to.

Metallica have played Super Bowl-related events but never the main event. In 2016, they performed the night before the Super Bowl in the same city, and in 2021 they performed on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on the same TV channel directly after the game.


Kane Brown

Kane Brown has been on the rise in country music since 2015. Brown made history at the 2022 VMAs by becoming the first male country artist to perform on the award show. During the broadcast, he performed his latest single, “Grand," which is his most pop-infused song to date. His versatility may have been noticed by Super Bowl organizers.


Nicki Minaj

Nicki Minaj has never headlined a Super Bowl, though she made a guest appearance at the Super Bowl XLVI halftime show in 2012 at the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana. It was headlined by Madonna, who became the first sole female headliner since Diana Ross in 1996. Minaj joined LMFAO, M.I.A. and CeeLo Green.


Lizzo

2022 has been Lizzo's year, as she has won an Emmy for Best Competition Program for her Amazon Prime series "Lizzo's Watch Out For The Big Grrrls." The singer and rapper's latest album, 'Special' has been a hit, with "About Damn Time" being her biggest hit since her 2019 song “Truth Hurts."


Drake

Drake not having headlined a Super Bowl is pretty crazy. His music is gets the most airplay in Top 40 and Hip-Hop formats, so there is hardly anyone out there especially in the world of sports who wouldn't know who he was.


Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood performed at Super Bowl XLIV back in 2010, but not as a headliner. She gave a powerful performance of the National Anthem in Miami Gardens, Florida.


Harry Styles

If he's not entirely burnt out from his Madison Square Garden residency and 'Don't Worry Darling' press tour and drama, Harry Styles would bring in a lot of younger viewers tuning in on Game Day.


Adele

Though not really a hype woman, Adele's Super Bowl performance would surely sway even the most hardened of football fans to appreciate her amazing singing abilities.


Bad Bunny

Bad Bunny is on his way to beating Drake as one of the most successful male performers in popularity. The Puerto Rican rapper and singer is a well-known fan of wrestling, so him performing at the Super Bowl would be an easy feat.


Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift announced that she would NOT be playing the Super Bowl in 2023, because she's focusing on new music. But she's one of the biggest artists in the world, and she still will be in 2024, and there's no doubt that the NFL would love to have her headline the Halftime show.
