Here's How Taylor Swift Can Make The Super Bowl

Taylor Swift already made the Super Bowl in her first year in the NFL — well, sort of. On Jan. 28, her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, helped the Kansas City Chiefs qualify for the football championship for the second year in a row, and Swift was on hand to celebrate his victory with some PDA. She’s been supporting the Chiefs in person all season, but the Super Bowl itself isn’t a sure sell.

The singer is technically free on Super Bowl Sunday, Feb. 11, but she’s scheduled to resume her record-breaking Eras Tour in Tokyo, Japan, with four shows from Feb. 7-10, ending just a day before the game.

However, never underestimate Swift’s power and foresight. If she wanted to go to the Super Bowl, she could make it happen.

How Swift Can Make The Super Bowl

Tokyo is 8,900 kilometers and a roughly 13-hour flight from Las Vegas. (Those numbers are Swift-coded, of course.) But because of the 17-hour time difference, she could make it to the stadium with time to spare.

Drew Barrymore did the math on her talk show in November, just in case Kelce made the Super Bowl, which turned out to be good manifesting. If Swift left Tokyo at midnight on Feb. 11, right after performing her last show, she’d land in Las Vegas around 11 p.m. on Feb. 10, the day before the game. Even if she opted to get a good night’s sleep first and leave Tokyo at noon, she’d still reach Vegas by Sunday morning.

Following her Tokyo stop, Swift is scheduled to perform three Eras Tour shows in Melbourne, Australia, from Feb. 16-18. If she heads to Vegas, she’d have a couple days to recover before needing to leave again. (Given the probable jetlag and tight turnaround, it’d be understandable if Swift opts out of attending the Super Bowl.)

American Airlines has offered to helping Swifties and Chiefs fans attend the big game, adding multiple direct flights between Las Vegas and Kansas City over Super Bowl weekend. Two of those trips are named Flight 1989 in honor of Swift.

Has Swift Ever Been To The Super Bowl?

While Swift’s attendance has not yet been confirmed, a “source” told Page Six that she will make the trip stateside. If she does, it will be her first time appearing at the Super Bowl in any capacity.

Swift has reportedly been asked to headline the halftime show “a handful of times,” according to the Daily Mail, most recently for 2023 and 2024, but has declined all offers. Instead, Usher will perform at the Super Bowl this year, after Rihanna took the mantle for a rare, buzzworthy performance in 2023.
