Taylor Swift is in Toronto to perform her first of six sold-out shows at the Rogers Centre tonight. The highly anticipated show gets underway at 6:45 p.m. but crowds of excited ‘Swifties’ have already been spotted roaming about the area outside the Rogers Centre in anticipation of the doors to the stadium opening at 4:30 p.m.

Tonight, Taylor Swift takes the stage at Rogers Centre in Toronto as the first of seven shows at the venue. The star will close out “The Eras Tour” at BC Place Stadium in Vancouver next month.

TORONTO — Just how big is the hype around Taylor Swift? Her swing through Toronto, set to begin Thursday, seems to be temporarily reshaping the city, with officials renaming Blue Jays Way to Taylor Swift Way for the duration of the musician’s stay. Streets near the Rogers Centre are being shut down and transit service is being increased.
