The London shows at Wembley Stadium were a highlight of the tour, with Taylor describing them as a "beautiful dream sequence." The energy from the crowds was described as overwhelming, and she expressed her joy at becoming the first solo artist to perform at Wembley eight times in a single tour. Special moments included surprise performances with longtime friends Ed Sheeran, Florence and the Machine, and Jack Antonoff.
Swift's message concluded on a note of appreciation for her fans, calling them "a dream to perform for" and expressing excitement about resuming the tour in October. She acknowledged the need for a well-deserved break before continuing the tour and thanked everyone for making the European leg an unforgettable adventure.
