City Of Lover
: City of Lover was a one-off concert by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It was held at the Olympia theater in Paris, France, on September 9, 2019, slightly over two weeks after the release of Swift's seventh studio album '' Lover'' (2019). The concert was reserved for fans who had won tickets through online contests or album purchases. The set list consisted of 16 songs, with eight from ''Lover'' and eight from Swift's other albums. City of Lover ran for one hour, and was the only concert that Swift held at a music venue to promote ''Lover'', after the planned sixth concert tour Lover Fest world tour was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On May 15, 2020, a TV special titled ''Taylor Swift: City of Lover'', filmed at the concert, was broadcast on ABC in the United States. Compared to the original concert, the TV special only included the eight ''Lover'' tracks, and ran for 42 minutes including commercials. The City of Lover concert and its corresponding TV sp ...
