November 2014 saw Taylor Swift unveil her plans to tour her fifth studio album 1989. May 2015 saw the start of the 1989 World Tour in Tokyo, Japan. Swift performed eighty-five times in North America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand on the last tour Up to that moment, it proved to be Swift's best-selling and greatest-earning tour.
Swift used components from the 1989 album in the stage design and clothing worn on the tour. The scene was simple, with a catwalk that let Swift approach her followers right into the crowd. The backdrop was large LED panels and lights; the pictures and colors were retro-style. Swift donned sequined dresses, crop tops, high-waisted shorts, glittering boots, and big bows like the ones in trend in the 1980s. She changed clothing multiple times during every show, and across the tour, it totaled 36 times.
From Taylor Swift’s 1989 album, some of the songs sang on the 1989 Tour were Welcome to New York, Blank Space, Style, Out of the Woods, All You Had To Do Was Stay, Shake It Off, and Clean. Most of the songs she had put out on her past albums—including Fearless, Speak Now, and Red—she also sang. Love Story, You Belong With Me, Mean, We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, I Knew You Were Trouble, 22 and We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together were the favorite songs of the crowd. Every night for the encore, Swift invited additional musicians to stage with her. Among her pals were The Weeknd, Ellie Goulding, Nelly, Wiz Khalifa, and many more musicians who would come perform the songs they created together.
The attendance record of the 1989 Tour was broken at the many locations visited in 2015. Swift successfully thrilled about 75,000 people for two nights at Soldier Field in Chicago. With ticket sales of more than 149,000 over two nights at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ, they demonstrated this. Having performed for around 200,000 people over five days, Mariah Carey also managed to establish a record for the most sold-out performances at Staples Centre in Los Angeles. With a record audience of 118 thousand, Swift also made history as the first female artist to stage three shows at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough.
Swift toured many music events both domestically and abroad throughout the summer of 2015. She sang in the British Summer Time Festival in London's Hyde Park, Germany's Rock am Ring Festival, and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil's Rock in Rio Festival. In addition that year she participated in the Z100 Jingle Ball Tour in the United States during Christmas and the Formula 1 Rolex Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne, Australia.
Apart from setting attendance records, the 1989 Tour was a cash machine as well. With nearly $250 million from the North American leg alone, it became the top-grossing tour in the world in 2015. This sum from North America alone made more than any other performer live that year anywhere. With over $ 345 million gross money from 85 shows, the 1989 World Tour was noted as the most successful tour of all time for a solo female singer once the foreign dates were eventually totaled. It ranked tenth among all-time music tours. Attracting more than 2.3 million fans, the 1989 World Tour included 12 nations on 4 continents.
Above all, this specific Tour got a kind review from critics praising the production, setlist, and most importantly Swift's ability to enthrall audiences of all ages and genders. She would chat with the crowd in between songs, so talking to the fans was important in line with Swift. She once brought several fans on stage for a unique dance-off or surprise or something else entirely. Among the reviews, some praised her singing and her guitar and keyboard playing abilities. Her humor and style fit such big venues as well, and The Guardian said she was "quite possibly the most charismatic pop star in the world." Her narrative lyrics made it rather simple to feel connected to her even with such large-scale live performances.

It exceeded several records and demonstrated that Swift is not just a relentless force on the concert circuit but also in the field of popular culture.
