Pop superstar Taylor Swift has added a new lineup of special guests for her upcoming ‘Eras Tour’ concerts in London. Already set to bring Paramore along, the 34-year-old singer has confirmed that Mette will perform at Wembley Stadium on June 21, Griff on June 22, and Benson Boone on June 23.
Swift shared the news on Instagram, saying, “I just found out Fortnight is #1 on the UK airplay chart!!!! You guys are amazing and I can’t wait to see you so soon! Thought this might be a fun time to announce the first group of opening acts I’ll be adding to the London shows, going on before Paramore. I chose artists whose music I love listening to, and I can’t wait for them to add an extra jolt of excitement to our shows at Wembley Stadium in June.”
Griff, 23, expressed her excitement on social media, exclaiming, “TAYLOR SWIFT HAS INVITED ME ON THE ERAS TOUR!!!!!! 8-year-old me who had Fearless on repeat wouldn’t believe this. So unbelievably grateful to Taylor for all the love she’s shown me and my music. See you at Wembley on June 22nd.”
Mette, 32, also shared her enthusiasm, writing, “It’s a new ERA for ya girl… Opening the ‘Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour’ on June 21st at Wembley Stadium in London. Thank you @taylorswift13 – Never been so excited in my entire life!!! #TSTheErasTour.”
Benson Boone, 21, took to his Instagram Story to express his gratitude, saying, “@taylorswift so excited to be part of the show thank you for having me.”
In addition to these new dates, Swift is set to perform at Wembley Stadium from June 15 to June 20.
The announcement of these additional support acts follows Swift’s recent reflection on past tours, where she expressed regret for not visiting certain countries, including Portugal. Swift made her debut performance in Portugal over the weekend, bringing ‘The Eras Tour’ to Lisbon on May 24 and 25. During her Friday night show at Estádio da Luz, she told the audience, “My big regret was that we didn’t get to take all of those tours to all of the places where I wanted to take them. And we absolutely should have come to Portugal on every single tour. This is not a mistake I will ever be making again. We are always going to come to Lisbon.”
After her performances, Swift took to social media to thank her Portuguese fans, writing, “It’s official, I left my [heart] in Lisbon. My first time in Portugal and you all made me feel like I was right at home. I’ll seriously never forget the way you treated us, the overwhelming love and passion and hands in the air and dancing and how you screamed every lyric!! Muito obrigada [thank you very much].”
