Tour Talk: This just in. Lover Fest, postponed.

For the sake of all of us, Taylor Nation.

The Blonde With The Sparkly Guitar and a lot of common sense, finally decided it was time to accept it. The concerts for Lover Fest have been postponed. At this time, we have to accept that even for the Nation of Swifties, we are not immune to the rules of the rest of the world. We can’t see her live in concert for a while until we get this covid-19 mess sorted out. At this point, we’re all aiming for next year.

I'm so sad I won't be able to see you guys in concert this year, but I know this is the right decision. Please, please stay healthy and safe. I’ll see you on stage as soon as I can but right now what’s important is committing to this quarantine, for the sake of all of us. pic.twitter.com/qeiMk2Tgon

Fighting COVID-19 is an unprecedented challenge for our global community and the safety and wellbeing of fans should always be the top priority. Health organizations and governments around the world have strongly discouraged large public gatherings for an undetermined period of time. With many events throughout the world already cancelled, and upon direction from health officials in an effort to keep fans safe and help prevent the spread of COVID-19, sadly the decision has been made to cancel all Taylor Swift live appearances and performances this year.

The U.S. and Brazil shows will be rescheduled to take place in 2021, with dates to be announced later this year. Tickets held for each of those shows will transfer to a new show date without action on the part of ticket holders.

For those who desire refunds for tickets purchased for the U.S. Lover Fest shows, they will be available starting May 1st subject to Ticketmaster terms. Watch for an email from Ticketmaster with instructions on how to request one. For currently available information on all other performance dates, please click the information button under each event below. Thank you so much for understanding. We look forward to seeing you all, happy and healthy, in the future

At this time, I am retiring all the cancelled entries from the Calendar and waiting to see what comes up. We still have one event to watch for on Saturday, April 18. At least we get to see her then.

Coming up in the Calendar:

• April 18: Taylor Swift will perform at Global Citizen’s One World: Together At Home global broadcast.
