Taylor Swift’s Eras era has officially begun as the artist kicked off her highly anticipated tour this weekend in Glendale, Arizona. Given that this was Swift’s first tour in five years, tickets were already a hot commodity, but throw in the huge Ticketmaster fiasco that saw millions of fans walk away without a ticket after multiple falls and long queues, and you’d have it It’s hard to imagine that everyone at State Farm Stadium was lucky enough to witness this moment in pop culture history. That certainly goes for her VIP fans as well, as evidenced by Laura Dern, Emma Stone and others who seemed to have a blast singing and dancing the night away.
A number of A-listers performed to open the Eras Tour, which included shows in Arizona on Friday and Saturday. The sold-out crowd of nearly 70,000 (opens in new tab) sang along to more than 40 of Taylor Swift’s best songs from all 10 of her albums during the three-hour shows, and concert-goers were sure to catch some of the more famous faces in the crowd. Jurassic World: Dominion star Laura Dern was among them as she danced with the HAIM sisters in the VIP area. A TikTok user documented his celebration:

Laura Dern appeared in Taylor Swift’s “Bejeweled” music video, so it’s no surprise that the Oscar-winner showed up for the Eras Tour kick-off, and she even posted an Instagram picture of the pair backstage after the show:
The Marriage Story star partied in the VIP area with T-Swift’s longtime friends HAIM – who will later open for the artist on the Eras Tour – and another actress with ties to the pop goddess in Emma Stone. The La La Land Oscar winner was briefly featured in the above TikTok post, but also echoed a mood in a video captured by another fan as she sang along to “Fearless”:

Emma Stone and Taylor Swift have been friends for over a decade, and rumor has it the two will be collaborating on the direct-to-stream sequel, Cruella 2.
Former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick also celebrated a night out with friends, posting several photos and videos from The Eras Tour on Instagram and calling the show “the most amazing concert I’ve ever seen”:
Scream VI actress Samara Weaving also appeared to be in attendance, and the modern finale girl posted a few moments from her place in the crowd to her Instagram Stories:

With the Eras Tour continuing through August, there will no doubt be more celebrities at the shows – especially when it concludes the tour with five nights at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium.
