During the last show of the 2024 European stretch of her Eras Tour, which took place at Wembley Stadium in London, Taylor Swift brought out a couple of friends to perform with her. Swift already had her friend Hayley Williams of Paramore opening the show, but she invited Florence Welch and Jack Antonoff to join her on stage.

Florence Welch is featured on the song “Florida!!!” from The Tortured Poets Department, and she and Swift performed the tune together during the show on August 20. Welch and Swift have never performed the track together live, so “Florida!!!” got its debut at Wembley for an adoring crowd.
Later, Swift brought out her producer, Jack Antonoff, who has had a hand in all of her albums since Reputation from 2017. The two played acoustic guitars and performed “Getaway Car” from Reputation, as well as “Death by a Thousand Cuts” from Lover. Swift introduced Antonoff as her best friend, and shared that she feels lucky to be able to work with him.

Taylor Swift Gives London a Proper Goodbye During the Final European Eras Tour Stop
To close out the show, Taylor Swift performed “So Long, London” from The Tortured Poets Department. Before performing her last song, she told the crowd, “Thank you for the memories we will keep for the rest of our lives,” per a report from Music News.
After this final show, Swift will take a break for two months. She’ll return to the States in October, playing shows in Miami, New Orleans, and Indianapolis through November. Then, she’ll head to Toronto and Vancouver for a run of shows. The Eras Tour officially ends on December 8 in Vancouver.
Additionally, Swift has released the second music video from The Tortured Poets Department. The video for “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” features behind-the-scenes footage from the Eras Tour, and she debuted the video during the show at Wembley. Fans were left stunned in the stadium, and emotions were high for Swifties. Many of them took to social media to share the news and clips from the debut.
The song is allegedly about Taylor Swift navigating the start of the long-running Eras Tour while processing her breakup from long-time boyfriend Joe Alwyn. It makes sense, then, for the video to feature footage from the tour.
