Night owls: while you’ll be able to start streaming the new album at 12 a.m. on Oct. 3, Target said hundreds of stores across the nation will open at midnight so fans can buy physical copies.
In Massachusetts, 12 Target stores will participate in the October midnight album release. Three special-edition Target CDs will be available for purchase.

What does ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ mean?
Swift touched on how she got the inspiration for this album on the “New Heights” podcast, saying the theme of the album is everything that happened behind the Eras Tour curtain. The artwork represents the end of her night.
“My day ends with me in a bathtub, not usually in a bedazzled dress,” Swift told Jason Kelce during the podcast. “I wanted to glamorize all the different aspects of how (the Eras Tour) felt.”
