Let’s start off with some local theaters playing the Eras Tour, so you can find the best fit for you and anyone else who comes with you!

Blue Sky Drive-In

If a normal theater isn’t quite your style, the Blue Sky drive-in theater will also be playing the Eras Tour Movie! While it is a bit further than the other theaters, about a 30-minute drive from campus, a drive-in is a great option for those who want to scream-sing all their favorite songs and get a more realistic Eras Tour feeling!

Now that you know some theater options, let’s talk outfits! Here are some great outfit ideas for those of you who want to dress up, and some for whoever wants to stay comfy!

Lastly, a few items you might want to bring to guarantee a safe, cozy and exciting night!

Snacks

A must-bring item for me when I go to any theater is snacks! Whether It’s candy, chocolates or trail mix (my personal favorite) snacks can make the viewing of whatever movie you’ve been anticipating even better!

Friendship Bracelets

The making of friendship bracelets is highly encouraged for all Swifties attending the Eras Tour Movie. Anything to make the experience more real, am I right? You can find all the supplies you need at any local craft store. Any colorful beads that catch your eye, letter beads and some string are all you need. If you’re going with a group, you can get together and have a friendship bracelet-making party! Anything from Taylor’s song lyrics, to funny quotes she’s said are typically what you’d see on the bracelets. Get creative and have fun with it! A great source of inspiration is TikTok! Below is an amazing account I found to draw inspiration from, if you want some visual examples.

Pillows and Blankets

If you plan on going to Blue Sky drive-in, pillows and blankets are for sure something you might want to bring to ensure a cozy night. Keep in mind the movie premiers in mid-October so it might be a little chilly out! All the more reason to bring your warmest blankets. Especially if you will be watching out of the trunk of your car and exposed to the cool, nighttime air.
