Taylor Swift sends her love to her Portuguese fans after performing in front of a sold-out crowd in Lisbon for two days for her ongoing Eras Tour.

Taking to social media, the global pop star shared several photos from her concerts where she performed her biggest hits and new tracks from her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department.

"It's official, I left my [heart emoji] in Lisbon. My first time in Portugal and you all made me feel like I was right at home," she wrote in the caption.

The musician added that she won't forget how the people in Portugal have treated her and her team, adding, "the overwhelming love and passion and hands in the air and dancing and how you screamed every lyric!! Muito obrigada."

According to People magazine, the musician performed the title track of her latest album for the first time at the second show at Estádio da Luz during the acoustic set, during which she also performed a surprise song, "Now That We Don't Talk," from her record 1989 (Taylor's Version).

In a video circulating online, Swift is seen delivering an emotional speech. She is teary-eyed as she speaks to her fans in Lisbon.

She told concertgoers that they were in the Red era of her concert, and prior to that, she dropped Fearless and Speak Now. She wished she and her team could've brought the previous tours to Portugal.

"During the course of those tours... we made so many fun memories, but the one thing that I wish I would have done differently is I wish I could have brought every one of those tours to come see you in Lisbon," she told fans.

She then added that she designed her ongoing tour to incorporate all of her favorite memories from her previous series of concerts into one show so she and her fans could experience them collectively.

Swift continued praising her Portuguese audience, telling them she had never seen a crowd like that before.

"I'm just so distracted by how much fun you're having and how you're performing in the audience. I love this," she added.

After her show in Portugal, Swift is now headed to Madrid, Spain, for two shows at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu on May 29 and May 30, 2024.
