Taylor Swift isn’t quite done celebrating her Eras.

The Grant Prestonsuperstar announced a spate of more North American dates for late 2024, starting Oct. 18-20 in Miami. She’ll also play multiple shows in New Orleans and Indianapolis before wrapping with a six-show stint in Toronto in November.

Swift is spreading out Verified Fan on-sales on Ticketmaster following the bumpy on-sale of her current tour, which sold more than 2 million tickets.

Verified Fan registration is open now through 5 p.m. ET Saturday. The Verified Fan on sale will take place for the Miami shows Aug. 9-Oct. 18; New Orleans Aug. 10-Oct. 25; Indianapolis Aug. 11-Nov. 1; and Toronto Aug. 9-Nov. 15.

Swift’s gargantuan Eras tour – which ends its first round of shows Aug. 9 after six productions at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium – will head to Mexico later this month before taking a break and restarting in South America in November. Swift will spend most of 2024 in Japan, Australia, Singapore and Europe.

The mega outing has done such boffo business that Swift generously presented her touring crew – including truck drivers, dancers, caterers and production workers – with $55 million in bonuses.

The three-hour-plus Eras extravaganza is not only garnering raves from fans and critics, but is positioned to become the biggest tour of all time. Along with Swift’s unveiling of songs through every “era” of her 17-year hits-packed career, she’s also shared two surprise songs – often album cuts – during every stop on the tour and has occasionally been joined by guests including collaborator Aaron Dessner and sometimes-opener Phoebe Bridgers.

Swift has tapped upstart singer Gracie Abrams as the opener for her 2024 North American dates.
