On Friday, February 26th, Taylor Swift announced on her social media that her Lover Fest shows would be canceled. This set of 12 shows across the world was originally announced in the fall of 2019 in support of Swift’s album Lover. Then in the spring of 2020, Swift postponed the shows she could, as others were canceled amongst COVID-19 uncertainties.
In the statement regarding the cancellations, she said “I love coming on here to tell you good news, or to share a new project with you. It’s not my favorite thing in the world to have to tell you news I’m sad about. I’m so sorry, but I cannot reschedule the shows that we’ve postponed. Although refunds have been available since we first postponed the Lover Fest shows, many of you hung onto your tickets and I too hung onto the idea that we could reschedule.”
She continued, “This is an unprecedented pandemic that has changed everyone’s plans and no one knows what the touring landscape is going to look like in the near future. I’m so disappointed that I won’t be able to see you in person as soon as I wanted to. I miss you terribly and can’t wait til we can all safely be at shows together again.”
