“The impressive numbers we’re seeing with ‘TAYLOR SWIFT: THE ERAS TOUR” are usually reserved for Hollywood blockbusters, demonstrating how demand for the IMAX Experience has expanded beyond our core audience,” said Rich Gelfond, CEO of IMAX. “With this film, Taylor Swift has created an experience that is cinematic in every sense of the word — dazzling, immersive, and undeniably joyous — and in the sound and scope of IMAX it’s the closest thing to being at the concert itself.”

Distributed domestically by AMC and Variance and internationally by Trafalgar, “TAYLOR SWIFT: THE ERAS TOUR” opened on 613 IMAX screens worldwide. The film will open in IMAX in additional international markets on October 26 and November 3.
