Arizona town renamed temporarily for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour

FILE – Singer Taylor Swift performs on stage in a concert at Wembley Stadium on June 22, 2018, in London. On the heels of a messy ticket roll out for Swift’s first tour in years, fans are angry; they’re also energized against Ticketmaster. While researchers agree that there’s no way to tell how long the energy could last, the outrage shows a way for young people to become more politically engaged through fan culture.

Think of this as Taylor’s version of Glendale, Arizona.

Taylor Swift kicks off her Eras Tour on March 17 at State Farm Stadium, and to honor the occasion, Glendale Mayor Jerry Weiers named the city after her.

It’s now called “Swift City.”

While Mayor Weiers put Swift’s name in that blank space on Monday morning, this is only temporary.

The “Anti-Hero” singer’s first two shows of her tour are on March 17 and March 18 at the home of the Arizona Cardinals.

Swift makes her way to Southern California this summer with five shows at Inglewood’s SoFi Stadium on Aug. 3, 4, 5, 8, and 9.

Swift’s tour finally arrives months after fans melted down Ticketmaster and prompted government officials to look into how the ticket giant handles business.
