Internet reactions to Taylor Swift's upcoming The Official Release Party of a Showgirl

Taylor Swift made an official Instagram post announcing the event, captioning:

"I hereby invite you to a *dazzling* soirée, The Official Release Party of a Showgirl: Oct 3 - Oct 5 only in cinemas! You’ll get to see the exclusive world premiere of the music video for my new single "The Fate of Ophelia", along with never before seen behind-the-scenes footage of how we made it, cut by cut explanations of what inspired this music, and the brand new lyric videos from my new album The Life of a Showgirl ❤️‍🔥

The post continued:

"Looks like it is time to brush off that Eras Tour outfit or orange cardigan… Tickets are on sale now. Dancing is optional but very much encouraged 💃 Showtimes may vary, so check your local listings. Tickets are limited and available at releasepartyofashowgirl.com"

Pop Crave took to its official X (formerly Twitter) page to share that,

"Taylor Swift's ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ theater event is currently aiming for a box office opening weekend of $30-50M, Deadline reports."

Fans soon weighed in on the comment section of the post to express their thoughts. Below are some of their reactions:

"Taylor casually pulling theater numbers bigger than some movies… the chokehold is unreal 💀🎤✨", hyped a fan.
"$50M just to watch the same songs at a different angle is insane and somehow makes sense", opined another.
"Wow, that’s massive! 🎤✨ Taylor Swift continues to dominate, turning every project into a potential blockbuster. $30-50M opening weekend would be huge for a theater event", commented a third.

Others also chimed in:

"Aye, sounds like Taylor is about to make a right splash! If her concerts are anything to go by, the show will be worth every penny, better grab tickets quick before they vanish like a good Yorkshire tea!", noted a netizen.
""Swifties are ready to 'Shake It Off' their budgets for T-Swift's show! $30-50M? More like $100M and a free hug from Taylor 💖"", added another.
"STOP SAYING OPENING WEEKEND, this is not a regular movie release, it's A SPECIAL *ONLY* 3-DAY EVENT, there won't be a following after the "opening" JESUUUUUSSSS.", stated a third.

AMC confirmed that each participating theater in Taylor Swift's album release event will run at least four screenings a day between October 3 and 5, 2025. The screenings will also be available in 18 international circuits, including Mexico, the U.K., Germany, Australia, and South Africa.
