Taylor Swift fans don’t have long to wait for the popstar’s new concert film, as the Eras Tour finally lands on Disney+ this week. Swift’s The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version) gives fans the chance to experience the 14-time Grammy-winner’s record-breaking world tour from home.
The original “cinematic experience” concert film was released in cinemas around the world in October and grossed more than $260 million worldwide at the global box office, becoming the highest grossing concert film ever. Directed by British Grammy-nominee Sam Wrench, the three-and-a-half-hour extended version will feature five songs that were cut from the previously released versions, including ‘cardigan’ and four bonus acoustic tracks.
Disney+ has confirmed The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version) will launch early to coincide with its US release and is now set to premiere in the UK at 1am on Friday, March 15. Thanks to a new Disney+ deal, Swifties can sign up to the streamer’s Standard with Ads plan to lock in the £1.99 a month price for three months – but you will have to act fast to snap up this offer before it ends the day before the film’s release on Thursday, March 14.

The £1.99 deal is available for new and returning customers, letting them stream the concert film along with hottest new films and shows in up to full HD 1080p. After the three-month promotional period, Disney+ Standard with Ads auto-renews at the then-current monthly retail price – currently £4.99 a month – but at this point members are free to cancel.
As well as The Eras Tour, Disney+ is the streaming home of Star Wars, Marvel and National Geographic, and the only place to catch epic new samurai series Shōgun. Members can also enjoy blockbuster shows like Welcome to Wrexham and The Bear – both of which return to Disney+ for a third season later this year – and films including the Oscar-winning Poor Things.

The House of Mouse streamer is also gearing up for the second season of Extraordinary and the all-new original Renegade Nell, the fantastical action-adventure from Happy Valley creator Sally Wainwright. But if the thought of watching adverts while you stream puts you off, Disney+ members can expect on average just four minutes of ads or less for every hour of TV – less than on terrestrial channels – while an ad will only play before a film starts and not during.
