The outlet also reported that she sang during the event, but what she performed was not disclosed. Swift spoke about the work required to capture the final Eras Tour concert without interfering with the atmosphere inside the stadium.
“One of the things that I was so impressed by, and the needle Glenn threaded so effortlessly, is that the Eras Tour was such a phenomenon because of so many factors but one that I know that is really important is that it was a source of great escapism for the people who were there,” she said.
She explained that preserving the audience’s experience had been central to her conversations with Weiss. “If you lose the feeling of relaxation and freedom for the fans there, then you’ve lost a huge element of what makes this concert experience so special,” Swift said.

She also credited the preparation that went into filming the performance: “If you liked the choreography that you saw of our dancers, you should have seen the footwork of our Steadicam operator.”
The nearly three-and-a-half-hour film features 45 songs and documents the final Eras Tour concert in Vancouver, British Columbia. It debuted on Disney+ on Dec. 12, 2025. Weiss was nominated for directing the special and received another nomination in the same category for the 78th annual Tony Awards.
“The Final Show” was produced by Taylor Swift Productions in association with Silent House Productions. Swift’s Emmy history also predates the concert film.
