On Wednesday, the U.S. celebrity added 14 exhibits within the United Kingdom and Europe subsequent summer season, saying the brand new dates on her Twitter account.

No Canadian dates have been introduced for her worldwide leg and it’s not clear if extra might be added.

“It has come to my attention that despite much anticipation, Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has neglected to include any Canadian dates or locations as she released her international dates, which includes stops throughout Asia and Europe,” Jeneroux wrote in a letter dated and signed on Wednesday, June 21.
Neither Swift nor her administration has addressed the choice to skip Canada.
