Do you know what will be the perfect holiday gift for the ultimate Swiftie? The Taylor Swift The Eras Tour Book, of course! Target will release the exclusive publication on Black Friday, November 29th, just in time for holiday shopping and getting those perfect gifts.
Taylor Swift announced the book drop on her Instagram on Monday, October 15th. In the post, the Grammy winner stands in front of multi-colored curtains that unveil the book and the vinyl edition of her 2024 album, "The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology."
"This tour has been the most wondrous experience, and I knew I wanted to commemorate the memories we made together in a special way," Swift states in her caption.
The final stretch of the Eras Tour will take place in Miami on October 18th, and the tour's curtains will draw on December 8th in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
The book will contain pages of never-before-seen behind-the-scenes photos and personal insights from Swift. It'll also feature how the now-iconic Eras World Tour was pieced together from the final costume decisions and stage scenery. So, if one couldn't make it to a Taylor Swift show, the book would be the next best thing to experience it.
To make the Taylor Swift The Eras Tour Book stand out against all others about the singer, a beaded friendship bracelet could be worn or used as a special keepsake. The bracelets were everywhere this year, and I do mean everywhere, as they popped up at conventions, in stores, or the airports.
On October 15th, Target released their official press statement regarding the book's release and description. It'll be a treasurable item, and according to the book's purchase page on Target.com, it's "expected to sell out quickly."
"The 256-page "Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour Book"—available for $39.99 [November 29]—spotlights the Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour concert from start to finish. The hardcover book features over 500 images, including never-before-seen performance photos from every era, exclusive rehearsal photos, and behind-the-scenes images of instruments, costumes, set pieces, and designer sketches used throughout the tour. The book also includes personal reflections and notes written by Taylor herself about her experience on the Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour."
Along with Taylor Swift The Eras Tour Book, a vinyl and CD set of "The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology" will be released
The book isn't the only Target-exclusive merchandise arriving in November. A four-set vinyl record edition of "The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology" will drop in stores on November 29th. The tracklist will comprise 35 songs, including new releases not part of the first launch. The album will also have a CD version, and the vinyl set will have a limited-edition poster of Taylor.
The vinyl set will have a price tag of $59.99 and for the CD collection, $17.99. They're going to be hot items and will very likely sell out.
Details regarding the album details are shown below.
""The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology" album on vinyl and CD has 35 tracks, including four acoustic bonus songs. The items will be available exclusively at Target in stores only on Black Friday, before becoming available on the Target app and on Target.com starting Saturday, Nov. 30."
During her tour hiatus, Swift has been hanging out with her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and attending his Chiefs games. She recently became the wealthiest female artist and has aided the victims of the recent hurricanes.
