Shanghai officials have expressed enthusiasm over a possible Taylor Swift show in China.
Shanghai authorities have entered "preliminary talks" with Taylor Swift's team, according to Chinese news outlet The Paper. One official revealed that the "Love Story" singer may potentially perform in Shanghai.
Zhang Qi, Shanghai's Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism Deputy Director, confirmed that a discussion was reached with Swift's team.
"As for whether it can take place in the end, we feel that it will have to depend on the market and the attractiveness of the city of Shanghai. But we are optimistic that they may be hope this year," he said, according to Reuters.
An official comment from Swift's publicist has yet to be received.
Swift set the bar high with her record-breaking "Eras" tour, which began its course in Arizona in March 2023 and ended on December 8, 2024, in Vancouver. After the tour wrapped up, it reportedly grossed over $2 billion.
The show also became the highest-grossing tour of all time, as well as the first-ever tour to surpass $1 billion in revenue. To express her gratitude to her dedicated crew members, Swift had given them more than $197 million in bonuses.
The tour mostly spanned across the United States and Europe, but its Asian leg only included Singapore and Japan. Chinese cities weren't included in the lineup.
