One of the most anticipated moments of each night of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is her acoustic set.
At the far end of her stage, the singer-songwriter plays two different songs, one on the guitar and one on the piano.
Throughout 2023, fans from all over the globe tuned into social media to see which songs Swift would choose. She developed rules around the set. Each song could only be played once on the tour, unless she screwed it up. Oh, and she decided to start it all over again this year.
"I decided that in 2024, when we go back on tour, I'm just gonna open back up all the songs for surprise songs,” Swift said during her final 2023 performance in Sao Paulo, Brazil. “For one year, we've really gotten through a lot of songs, so I'm just gonna make all the songs fair game when we go back on tour."
That day has arrived. Swift performed her first show of 2024 in Tokyo on Wednesday. Throughout the year, she will travel to 23 different cities around the world. Follow along here to see which surprise songs she plays at each tour stop. Below, see what she played — and didn't — in 2023.
