Taylor Swift must be accustomed by now to setting records on the Billboard charts. That never gets to be old hat – ask any artist – but she needs new worlds to conquer. And with the release of Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour concert film on Oct. 13, we can see how she does on the film box office charts. If The Eras Tour film grosses more than $73 million, it will become the top-grossing contemporary music concert film of all time, according to boxofficemojo.com.

Swift’s film will be available in AMC theaters in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, as well as certain other movie operators that AMC is working with in those three countries. AMC will offer the film in IMAX and Dolby Cinema as well as standard screenings, with fees varying by format and theatre.

Every U.S. AMC Theatre location will screen the movie at least four times each day on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays during its run. Tickets are already on sale. Read on for more information on how to get tickets here.

The Eras Tour film was shot over the course of Swift’s first three shows at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif., where she performed a total of six shows in early August.  An average Eras Tour concert runs for more than three hours, but the concert film has an official runtime of 2 hours, 45 mins. It’s unclear what parts of Swift’s show her team excised or trimmed to get the movie down to a shorter length.

The Eras Tour film was directed by Sam Wrench, who received a Grammy nomination late last year for directing Billie Eilish Live at the O2, which was a contender for best music film. Wrench has also worked on projects by BTS, Lizzo, Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber, The Weeknd and Mary J. Blige.

This list counts only domestic box-office receipts, which explains the absence of previous Swift projects such as the Netflix documentary Miss Americana (2020).

Here are the 10 highest-grossing contemporary music concert films, according to boxofficemojo.com.
