Taylor Swift Adds ‘The 1’ to Setlist, Plus More New Moments as Eras Tour Arrives in Texas

Taylor Swift continued her history-making Eras Tour on Friday night (March 31), kicking off three shows through Sunday in Arlington, Texas.

Though fans and media who caught the tour at its first stop in Glendale, Ariz., and subsequent shows in Las Vegas have already revealed key details about the extensive 3 hour and 15 minute set list, elaborate costumes, and more, Friday’s concert held some special surprise moments for Swifties.

Leading up to the night, local news outlets made a slew of announcements that urged citizens to beware of Eras Tour-induced traffic jams and parking issues in Arlington, which sits right in between Dallas and Fort Worth and boasts most of the metroplex’s major amusements, including Globe Life Field, Six Flags Over Texas and the Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium — where Swift performed — but many concertgoers seemingly avoided the regular rush by arriving early, planting themselves in line for merchandise and entrance to the concert.

So what made Swift’s first Arlington show stand out from the previous Eras shows? Read below for some brand-new moments from the Friday night concert.
