Swifties, mark your calendars. On December 12, 2025, Disney+ will premiere not one but two major Taylor Swift projects: a six-episode behind-the-scenes docuseries and a complete concert film from the final night of the record-breaking Eras Tour. Here’s your complete guide to what’s coming and why it’s a must-watch event.
Two Projects, One Unforgettable Experience
Taylor Swift announced the dual release in October 2025 on Good Morning America, surprising fans who had long speculated about behind-the-scenes footage from the tour. “It was the End of an Era and we knew it,” Swift wrote on Instagram. “We wanted to remember every moment leading up to the culmination of the most important and intense chapter of our lives.”
The first project, “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era,” is a six-episode docuseries chronicling the development, impact, and inner workings that created the phenomenon. The second, “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The Final Show,” captures the complete concert from the tour’s finale in Vancouver, British Columbia.
What’s Inside the Docuseries
Directed by Don Argott and co-directed by Sheena M. Joyce, “The End of an Era” promises unprecedented access to Taylor’s world during the tour. According to Disney+, the series gives “an intimate look at Taylor’s life as her tour made headlines and thrilled fans around the world.”
The docuseries features appearances from some of music’s biggest names, including Travis Kelce, Gracie Abrams, Sabrina Carpenter, Ed Sheeran, and Florence Welch. Fans will also see Taylor’s band, dancers, crew members, and family — offering never-before-seen insight into what it took to create a global phenomenon.
Based on the trailers released so far, viewers can expect footage from rehearsal spaces, backstage moments, and candid exchanges between Taylor and her team. One particularly exciting tease shows Travis Kelce rehearsing the moment he famously carried Taylor across the stage at Wembley Stadium.
The Final Show: Vancouver in Full
“The Final Show” concert film, directed by Glenn Weiss, captures the emotional last night of the Eras Tour at BC Place Stadium in Vancouver on December 8, 2023. This isn’t just another concert film — it’s the definitive record of the tour’s grand finale.
Most importantly, this concert film features the complete “Tortured Poets Department” set for the first time on screen. The earlier theatrical Eras Tour film was released before that album dropped, meaning fans have never seen this portion of the show in full. The final show’s setlist included 45 songs, including the new “Female Rage: The Musical” segment added after “The Tortured Poets Department” was released.
The surprise songs from that historic final night were medleys of “A Place in This World” with “New Romantics” and “Long Live” with “New Year’s Day” and “The Manuscript” — fitting choices for the end of an era.
Release Schedule: How to Watch
Both “The Final Show” concert film and the first two episodes of “The End of an Era” docuseries will premiere simultaneously on December 12, 2025, on Disney+. The remaining docuseries episodes will follow a staggered release schedule, with two episodes dropping each subsequent week until the finale.
Unlike the original Eras Tour theatrical film, these projects are bypassing theaters entirely and going straight to streaming. However, given the 2023 theatrical film’s record-breaking success — it became the highest-grossing concert movie ever and set streaming records with 4.6 million views in its first three days on Disney+ — expect these new releases to dominate viewing charts.
Why This Matters: The Eras Tour by the Numbers
The Eras Tour wasn’t just a concert series — it was a cultural phenomenon. Running for 149 shows from March 2023 to December 2024, the tour grossed over $2 billion, making it the highest-grossing concert tour of all time. It broke records in virtually every market it visited and became a global event that transcended music.
“We have broken every single record you can break with this tour,” Taylor noted in the documentary trailer. “The only thing left is to close the book.” The docuseries serves as that closure, documenting how a concept became a worldwide sensation.
Behind the Scenes: What Fans Can Expect
The extended trailer offers fascinating glimpses into Taylor’s post-show routine. In one candid moment, she describes being unable to sleep after performing for three hours due to the adrenaline. Her solution? Running a bath, making plans to watch TV, and hand-signing approximately 2,000 CDs to burn off the energy.
This level of intimacy is what sets “The End of an Era” apart from typical concert documentaries. It’s not just about the performances — it’s about the human behind the phenomenon, the team that made it possible, and the creative decisions that shaped every moment.
Taylor’s Relationship with Disney+
This isn’t Taylor’s first collaboration with Disney+. The platform previously hosted “Folklore: The Long Pond Studio Sessions” in late 2020 and the theatrical Eras Tour film in April 2024. The success of these releases clearly built trust between Swift’s camp and Disney, leading to this ambitious double-feature release.
These Eras Tour projects arrive on the heels of Taylor’s latest album “The Life of a Showgirl,” which broke Adele’s record for the biggest album in a single week with more than 3.5 million equivalent album units. With both her music and documentary content generating massive attention, December 2025 is shaping up to be another landmark month in the Taylor Swift phenomenon.
“Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era” and “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The Final Show” premiere December 12, 2025, exclusively on Disney+.
