Taylor Swift gives away $197 million in bonuses to Eras Tour dancers and crew

Taylor Swift is incredibly kind; she has donated a significant portion of her Eras Tour earnings to the production crew.

 

 

From March 2023 to December 2024, the Eras Tour sold over $2 billion worth of tickets, making it the highest-grossing tour ever.

Although it is reasonable to suppose that Taylor herself made a sizable fortune from all of those performances, she also ensured that everyone who collaborated with her benefited.

People claims that Taylor, who turns 35 on Friday, handed her employees a whopping $197 million in incentives.

The outlet claims that the singer gave bonuses to all of the employees, including the dancers, performers, truck drivers, caterers, instrument technicians, merchandise team, lighting, sound, production staff and assistants, carpenters, dancers, band, security, choreographers, pyrotechnics, riggers, hair, makeup, wardrobe, physical therapists, and the video team.

The Grammy-winning artist gave out more than $55 million in bonuses at the conclusion of the North American leg of the tour in August 2023, according to the site, but her generosity obviously went beyond that.

 

 

On Sunday, December 8, Taylor’s final performance of the massive 149-date tour took place in Vancouver’s BC Place Stadium.

“We have toured the entire world,” she said to the audience. We’ve experienced a lot of adventures.

“It has been the most exciting, powerful, electrifying, intense, most challenging thing I’ve ever done in my entire life.”

She said to her supporters at the conclusion of the performance, “I want to thank every single one of you for being a part of the most thrilling chapter of my entire life to date — my beloved Eras Tour.”

The New York Times was informed by the singer’s production company, Taylor Swift Touring, that 10,168,008 people attended the Eras Tour, generating $2,077,618,725 in total ticket sales.

It “doubles the gross ticket sales of any other concert tour in history” due to the astounding amount.

Taylor just received six Grammy nominations, including Album of the Year for The Tortured Poets Department, in addition to her record-breaking tour.

 

 

 

She has broken a tie with Barbra Streisand to become the first female star to receive seven nominations for the award.

“You guys got this album nominated for six Grammys,” she told her audience during a gig last month in response to the news. It’s really amazing, so thank you.”

“You guys have been so wonderful about getting into this album and really understanding where I was coming from with it,” Taylor continued later. “Without a doubt, it was the biggest album debut week I’ve ever had.”

And for over four months, you managed to keep that album at the top of the charts. Everything that occurs is a clear indication of how passionate you are. It’s blown my head, really.”

Someone now needs to inform us when Taylor begins hiring personnel for her upcoming tour.
