Taylor Swift may have been the lead showgirl on her global Eras Tour, but it took a lot of supporting acts — from Travis Kelce to Sabrina Carpenter — to make the trek as memorable as it was.
That much is evident in the new trailer for the 14-time Grammy winner’s six-part Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era docuseries, which dropped Monday (Oct. 13) alongside Swift’s announcement for the project on Good Morning America. In the nearly two-minute preview, fans get a glimpse at how present her now-fiancé was behind the scenes, at one point crouching underneath the stage and grinning wide as the pop star bends down and kisses him on the cheek.

In other parts of the trailer, we see how Swift and Kelce rehearsed his cameo at one of the Eras shows in London last year. In a dressing room, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end concentrates while practicing carrying his then-girlfriend during the Tortured Poets Department section of the three-hour show, with the scene cutting to the couple re-enacting it in full costume on stage.
The teaser also gives Swifties a look at how several other celebrity drop-ins came together on the Eras Tour, which kicked off in March 2023 and wrapped last December. At one point, Gracie Abrams giggles with Swift behind the scenes, while Carpenter appears in a t-shirt and sits on a couch as the trek’s headliner practices guitar. Both Abrams and Carpenter served as openers on different legs of the tour and joined Swift for surprise duets later in the tour.
Ed Sheeran and Florence Welch also made cameos at different points on the tour, and both appear alongside Swift in revealing rehearsal footage in the trailer. There are also shots of the countless members of Swift’s band, dance troupe and stage crew hard at work setting up the show night after night, along with her parents, Scott and Andrea Swift, who are frequently seen smiling and laughing with their daughter.
“People like to talk about phenomenons,” Swift says in a voiceover. “Almost as if it were pieces falling into place — as if it just happened. The Eras Tour wasn’t when all the pieces fell into place. This tour was just when every single one of us who had done so much work, pushing inch-by-inch, to where we all clicked together.”
As announced Monday morning on GMA, the first two episodes of the Eras Tour docuseries will premiere Dec. 12 on Disney+. Two more episodes will arrive each week after that.
The project comes two years after Swift’s Eras Tour concert film, which pieced together footage from the singer’s shows at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and shattered box-office records. The upcoming docuseries will be paired with an accompanying concert film capturing Swift’s final Eras Tour show, which took place in Vancouver.
News of the docuseries arrives just over a week after the release of The Life of a Showgirl, Swift’s 12th studio album. The LP quickly obliterated records to achieve the biggest release week for an LP ever and is on track to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
