The Reputation Stadium Tour is the fifth worldwide concert tour by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It was her first all stadium tour. The tour was launched in support of Swift's sixth studio album, Reputation (2017).
Netflix original[]
On December 13, 2018, Taylor thanked everyone for her birthday wishes on Instagram and also announced that there was going to be a tour movie for the Reputation Stadium Tour that would be released on New Year's Eve, titled Taylor Swift: reputation Stadium Tour. It was filmed at the last Dallas/Arlington show, which was the final US leg date. It featured the surprise song "All Too Well". The tour movie was removed on December 30, 2023 due to unknown reasons.
Stage[]
Taylor Swift designed her own stage, complete with an elevator, and a rapid changing room for her eight costumes.
The main screen was 110 feet tall and and made of 12 columns and 1,5OO LED tiles that split into 49 individual screens that moved depending on the song. The stage design is an X shape and it also features a B & C Stage that Taylor accessed with the floating constellation and snake gondolas during "Delicate" and the "Bad Blood"/"Should've Said No" mashup. The band played right behind the main screen and during certain parts of the show, the screen opened and the audience could see them.
During "Look What You Made Me Do", there was a giant inflatable snake named Karyn on the stage as well as smaller inflatable snakes on the B & C Stage and for the show encore, a water fountain was installed on stage. There were also fire, smoke and fireworks effects throughout the show from the stage. The LED bracelets distributed to the attendees were interactive with the songs and stage visuals.
Critical review[]
"This might be her most astounding tour yet – even when she’s aiming for maximum stadium-rock razzle-dazzle bombast, she gives it all the vibe of a mass communion." - Rolling Stone

- On July 14, Swift performed "Our Song" and "Wildest Dreams" a cappella after the levitating gondola used during "Delicate" malfunctioned. She did not go by the first B stage or do the crowd walk, and instead did every song she would've performed on the first B stage, on the C stage.
- On July 21, Swift performed "Clean" before the "Long Live"/"New Year's Day" mashup, because it was raining.
