Avengers: Endgame, the MCU’s crown jewel, recently had one of its records broken by a startling rival: Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. Swift’s Eras tour, which will encompass 146 unique concerts in an amazing 36 venues around the world from March 2023 through November 2024, is currently the most sought-after ticket in the world.
Eras Tour against Avengers: Endgame in the MCU
Taylor Swift, a Grammy-winning musician, revealed on August 31 that her Eras Tour performance would be made into a theatrical film release, titled Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour. This would allow fans to watch her three-hour show on a huge screen.
Starting on October 13, this movie will be screened in AMC, Cinemark, and Regal theatres around the country. Following this announcement, pre-sale tickets for the Eras Tour movie were expected to generate $30 million in sales for these three theatre chains, according to industry insider Matt Belloni, who also published this information in a Puck News newsletter.
In order to put this sum into perspective, it should be noted that the previous pre-sale record for AMC belongs to Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Endgame, with the penultimate Infinity Saga film only bringing in slightly more than half that amount with pre-sales of $16 million.
After a brief while, Avengers: Endgame will surpass James Cameron’s Avatar as the highest-grossing film of all time. Avatar would then be re-released in theatres in 2021, overtaking Avengers: Endgame. The tour even compelled Blumhouse Productions’ The Exorcist: Believer to advance its October 6 release date by one week in order to avoid being in direct competition with Swift’s film.
How significant will the Eras Tour for Taylor Swift be?
Taylor Swift is one of just seven female singers who have ever sold more than 200 million albums, and her popularity is at an all-time high. This 21-month tour is also one of the biggest ever mounted by the music business. It is a really incredible achievement to see this concert smash a record previously held by Avengers: Endgame while also nearly doubling it, especially in light of the fact that Endgame set multiple box office records upon its much anticipated 2019 release.
Given how difficult it will be to get tickets for the actual tour as it goes from city to city over the next 14 months, the Eras Tour movie definitely has a chance to do well at the box office. Swift fans from all around the country are sure to swarm to theatres to see only a little sample of the effort Swift is putting in as a performer as the musical artist is presently taking a break from live performances before Eras kicks up again in Brazil on November 17.
The Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour will begin on October 13 at AMC, Cinemark, and Regal theatres. In addition to being streamable on Disney+, Avengers: Endgame is available for home purchase on DVD and in digital markets.
This morning, we’re all beaming like demons. That is, if you’re a Swiftie. The Grammy-winning pop diva Taylor Swift, whose next leg of the economy-boosting Eras Tour just got underway, said that the tour would hit North American theatres on October 13 so that fans can view her soon-to-be-released concert movie, suitably titled “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour Concert Film.”
Swift stated in an Instagram post on Thursday morning, “The Eras Tour has been the most meaningful, electric experience of my life so far, and I’m overjoyed to tell you that it’ll be coming to the big screen soon.” The concert movie will be shown in theatres across North America beginning on October 13! At amctheatres.com, tickets are now available. Friendship bracelets, period clothing, singing, and dancing are all encouraged.
