Taylor Swift's Eras Tour continues to captivate fans worldwide, with many tuning in to watch her perform, including Swifties eagerly watching from home as she takes the stage in Portugal.

The 34-year-old pop star is set to perform two concerts at Estádio da Luz in Lisbon on Friday, May 24, and Saturday, May 25. The show will kick off at 6 p.m. local time, with Paramore as the opening act. For those on the East Coast, the concert will start at 1 p.m. EST when Paramore takes the stage.

Swift is set to start her performance at 7:15 p.m. local time, which translates to 2:15 p.m. EST. At 9:55 p.m. in Lisbon, she will surprise fans with an acoustic section. East Coast fans can catch the livestream or check social media updates at 4:55 p.m. to see which songs she performs from her vast collection. The show will end 35 minutes later.

After taking a break from her tour and releasing her 11th album, The Tortured Poets Department, Swift made some significant changes to her setlist. She added seven songs from her latest album, rearranged sections, removed some tracks, combined Folklore and Evermore segments, and debuted new costumes.

Swift expressed her gratitude towards her team and fans for the successful debut of the new Tortured Poets Department set in Paris earlier this month. She took to Instagram on May 12 to thank her crew, fellow performers, and band for their hard work in preparing the surprise, especially for the fans in Paris. She was thrilled to showcase the new set to the Parisian fans first, as they brought so much excitement, passion, and love. She is looking forward to performing it for every crowd on the tour.

Following the Paris show, Swift traveled to Sweden for three performances in Stockholm from Friday, May 17, to Sunday, May 19. She expressed her gratitude to the Stockholm audience for being incredibly generous, enthusiastic, and magical. Swift was delighted to announce that they broke the all-time attendance record for the stadium on all three nights. She couldn't believe it was their first time performing in Sweden, but assured fans that it definitely won't be the last.

Swift will kick off the European leg of her tour in Madrid on Wednesday, May 29 after wrapping up her run in Portugal. She will be traveling throughout Europe over the summer, with the tour concluding in London in August. Following a short break, Swift will have a few shows in the U.S. in the fall before finishing off the tour in Canada in December.
