Reputation Stadium Tour based on Reputation
The Reputation Stadium Tour was the fifth concert tour by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, launched in support of her sixth studio album Reputation (2017). The all-stadium tour began on May 8, 2018, in Glendale, Arizona, and concluded on November 21, 2018, in Tokyo, consisting of 53 shows. The tour received 2.88 million attendees and grossed $345.7 million in revenue. It marked Swift's most successful tour to-date and broke numerous boxscore records, becoming the third highest-grossing female concert tour of all time and the highest-grossing tour ever in the United States and North America.
Reflecting themes of Reputation, the concept of the Reputation Stadium Tour incorporated Goth subculture, Broadway theatricality and snake motifs. It featured a main stage with a wedge-shaped display resembling a skyscraper under construction, as well as two smaller B-stages. The tour received universal acclaim from contemporary critics and journalists, who commonly labeled it the best concert tour of 2018 and Swift's best tour yet, praising her stage presence, wardrobe, and versatile performances. They described it as a "hyper-maximalist" tour with high-tech production value. The tour received several "Tour of the Year" accolades. Mark Dayton, Governor of Minnesota (2011–2019), declared August 31, 2018, as "Taylor Swift Day" in the state in honor of Swift's two shows (August 31 and September 1) at the U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. He remarked that "through her personal and honest music, Taylor Swift has energized and inspired not only Minnesotans, but people all over the world, and is a positive influence on her fans through her example of truthfulness, grace, extensive philanthropy, and strength of character".The October 6 show at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, was recorded and released as a Netflix original concert film on December 31, 2018.
