Swift celebrated the release of the film by attending the premiere in Los Angeles Wednesday night (October 11) and also in attendance was Beyoncé. Following the event, Swift shared a post of the pair enjoying popcorn together inside the theatre.

“I’m so glad I’ll never know what my life would’ve been like without @beyonce’s influence,” she expressed. “The way she’s taught me and every artist out here to break rules and defy industry norms. Her generosity of spirit. Her resilience and versatility. She’s been a guiding light throughout my career and the fact that she showed up tonight was like an actual fairytale.”

The film showcases a performance of Swift’s highly-praised Eras Tour and has already proven to be a record-breaking experience on it’s own as it is set to open to at least $100 million at the domestic box office.

In true Taylor fashion, demand is so high that she revealed the film would be releasing a day ahead of schedule to match “unprecedented demand.”

“I can’t really wrap my head around this but…. Look what you genuinely made me do,” Swift wrote to fans ahead of the premiere. “Due to unprecedented demand we’re opening up early access showings of The Eras Tour Concert Film on THURSDAY in America and Canada!! As in… TOMORROW.”

She continued, “We’re also adding additional showtimes Friday and throughout the weekend. All tickets will be available by 10am tomorrow morning. And it’ll be showing starting Friday in 90 countries all over the world. I can’t thank you enough for wanting to see this film that so vividly captures my favorite adventure I’ve ever been a part of: The Eras Tour. And the best part is, it’s an adventure we’re still on together.”

Tickets are on sale now and can be found at amctheatres.com and Fandango. Prices are numerically on brand with adult tickets ringing up at $19.89 and child tickets at $13.13 (excluding tax).
