The tour will begin on March 18 at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. So far, the tour includes 27 U.S. stops, wrapping up with back-to-back shows Aug. 4-5 at SoFi Stadium. Overseas dates have not yet been announced.

According to Swift, she will be joined on the tour by Paramore, beabadoobee, Pheobe Bridgers, girl in red, Muna, Haim, Gayle, Gracie Abrams and Owenn.
