TORONTO – Taylor Swift is giving Canadian fans the cold shoulder.

While many Swifties expected the “Anti-Hero” singer-songwriter to add local tour stops to her growing schedule, they were disappointed Tuesday when a wave of nearly 40 new dates skipped Canada.

Swift announced that her Eras tour – which began in March with dates in the United States – is heading overseas in 2024, spending four nights at Japan’s Tokyo Dome and two at London’s Wembley Stadium.

Other countries added to the calendar include France, Italy, Spain, Ireland, Austria, Germany, Poland, Portugal and Singapore.

Swift’s tour will wind through Mexico, Argentina and Brazil later this year.

A representative for Universal Music Canada, which distributes her music domestically, did not respond to requests for comment.

Swift last played in Canada when her Reputation Stadium Tour passed through Toronto in 2018. One of the evenings there was a surprise appearance by Bryan Adams, who sang his hit “Summer of ’69” with her.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 20, 2023.
