Taylor Swift thought she was going to have a ‘quiet dinner’ with her boyfriend before he surprised her with a massive end-of-tour wrap party.
The performer, 35, wrapped up her sold-out Eras shows in Vancouver, Canada, on December 8 – with the record-breaking tour earning more than $2 billion in ticket sales, which is double the gross ticket sales of any other concert tour in history.
‘When she thought she was going to a small, quiet dinner but it was actually a giant surprise party with her friends and family, props included,’ Taylor’s close friend Ashley Avignone captioned her Instagram post.
Ashley’s post featured images of Taylor posing with friends at the party that was thrown by the Bejeweled singer’s boyfriend Travis Kelce, 35.
Among the guests were Travis’ fellow Kansas City Chiefs player Patrick Mahomes, 29, and his wife Brittany, also 29.
Brittany posted a selection of photos from the night out on her Instagram on Wednesday showing how guests wore homemade friendship bracelets – like Taylor’s fans at her gigs – and dressed up in costumes to mark Taylor’s different album ‘Eras’ as the singer did on stage.

The party comes after Taylor is said to have been showered with a ‘ton of gifts’ for her 35th birthday from doting boyfriend Travis.
The pop phenomenon marked the milestone on December 13 and her NFL star partner is said to have pulled out all the stops to make it as special as possible, especially as it marked the start of the singer having a rest following the end of her nearly two years touring on her Eras Tour.
A source told Page Six the couple, who have been dating since the summer of 2023, celebrated with a private party involving ‘just them two’.
They added: ‘He got her a ton of gifts.’
In addition to the party, Travis also took the All Too Well singer out for a private dinner where he showered her with thoughtful gifts.
‘Travis has only let a few of those closest to him know what he has in store for Taylor because he doesn’t want to ruin any surprises,’ the insider said, adding that he had ‘been shopping for Christmas and birthday gifts for Taylor for quite a while.’
Travis went all out, reportedly spending $175,000 on Taylor’s presents which included a $60,350 rose gold Rolex

‘[Some] gifts are things Taylor has casually mentioned she would like…Travis makes sure to always listen even when Taylor doesn’t realize he is.’
