Taylor Swift Resumes ‘Eras Tour’ in Scotland: What Time Will It Start in EST Zone?
Taylor Swift will take the stage in Scotland with tens of thousands of fans in the crowd, but Swifties will be tuning in for the concerts worldwide.
The pop star, 34, will perform at Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh three times: on Friday, June 7, Saturday, June 8, and Sunday, June 9. The concert will begin at 6 p.m. local time, with Paramore opening for Swift. Edinburgh is five hours ahead of the East Coast, so it will be 1 p.m. EST when the band kicks off the show.
Swift is expected to begin her set at 7:15 p.m. local time, which will be 2:15 p.m. EST. The “surprise song” acoustic section will take place at 9:55 p.m. in Edinburgh, meaning East Coast-based fans will want to watch livestreams and social media updates at 4:55 p.m. to find out which tracks make the cut. The concert will conclude 35 minutes later.
Prior to traveling to Scotland, Swift performed in Lyon, France, on Sunday, June 2, and Monday, June 3. During Sunday’s show, she carried on despite the rain, praising the audience for their enthusiasm amid the weather.

For her surprise songs in Lyon, Swift performed mash-ups of “The Prophecy” and “Long Story Short” and “Fifteen” (during which she gave a nod to boyfriend Travis Kelce, blushing as she sang about “dating the boy on the football team”) and “You’re on Your Own, Kid” on Sunday.
