Eras Tour worker reveals how long it takes to set up Taylor Swift’s stage
A worker at the Dublin leg of ‘The Eras Tour’ has revealed how many hours it takes to put the stage together for her shows.
Taylor Swift has already performed three sold-out nights at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin as she carries on her tour of the world. However, the buzz is still there and the fans are still on the comedown from experiencing her music live.
So far, her extremely lucrative tour has been a huge success, with fans the world over causing a stir wherever she goes. And that’s not to mention her relationship with Travis Kelce, the Super Bowl champion, which has propelled the two to the top of the unofficial power couple list of the year.
How long does it take to put up the Eras Tour stage?
Daniel Aguilar, 18, a worker at the Aviva Stadium, recently spoke on Twitter, where he revealed the time taken by those on duty in the ground.
“I would say that she is an inspiration of strength”, he began, “even though she doesn’t know me, she supports me every day when I put on my headphones. I’ve been a fan since ‘Folklore,’ but I’ve always heard her songs on the radio and had several on my playlist.”
“I found the stage assembly to be very quick. It took approximately 7-8 hours,” Aguilar said. “I managed to see some parts of the set before they went backstage like the ‘Folkmore’ trees, the ‘Down Bad’ machine and the ‘Tortured Poets’ bed.”
Swift’s next stop will be in Amsterdam, where she will perform a trio of concerts at the famous Johan Cruijff Arena, the home of 5-time European champions, Ajax.
From there, she will move south to Switzerland before stops in Italy, Germany, Poland and Austria. After that, her hugely anticipated 5-night stint in London, where the Swifties hope that a special announcement may well be on its way...
