Her 10th studio album, midnight, was released on October 21 and almost immediately dominated the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
With the tour kicking off in the spring, fans can expect to see the Grammy winner celebrating the diverse music she’s produced over the years and music from her latest album.
“Don’t camp,” wrote @this1smetrying in her first tweet. “No one has for any show. Her shows are amazing from every look. Nosebleed has some of the best looks [to be honest] so don’t be sad if you can’t get the floor or lower bowl. I disguise myself!!! This is fun. Wear suits.”
Real advice for people going to their first Taylor concert:
DO NOT CAMP. no one has for any show.

Additionally, @this1smetrying encouraged concertgoers to have fun dancing or singing without worrying if others are judging them.
She continued with other tips, suggesting that concertgoers create outfits to go along with their favorite songs and “eras.” And, first-timers should also be mindful of enjoying the concert experience more than focusing on the potential of meeting Swift.
“Meeting Taylor might happen, but don’t make it your priority,” @this1smetrying said. “It will make your concert experience less fun. You are there to have fun and have a good experience and I hope many of you finally get to see it live!”
Many other Twitter users welcomed the advice.
“Thank you for this because [if] I’m actually getting tickets, it’ll be my first concert ever,” one tweet read.
Others offered their experiences and tips for a Taylor Swift concert.
“I recommend getting earplugs designed specifically for concerts,” said one Twitter user. “They help protect your hearing and it puts you in a bubble where it’s just you and the artist!”
“Also, her team will often give fans nosebleeds,” another tweet read. “It happened to us in Minneapolis!! And we were in the second row from the barricade, center pit and it was wide!!!”
“For Red’s tour in London I was nosebleed the whole way through like the last line and it was amazing to be able to hear it and try all the lights and all the effects on stage,” one Twitter user recalled. “I have some amazing photos of her!”
Newsweek reached out to @this1smetrying for comment.
Swift’s new album created quite a stir online, with one fan theorizing what some of her songs might sound like. To her surprise, she accurately predicted the opening of “Lavender Haze.”
