When the movie was first released, it became the highest-grossing concert film domestically during its opening weekend. Now, that record extends to its worldwide performance, showing just how popular Swift’s music is worldwide. This was also reflected by ticket pre-sales, which reached $100 million globally.

Despite still being in theaters worldwide, The Eras Tour’s theater schedule adds to its ability to perform so well. The movie originally only played on Thursdays through Sundays, making its availability limited. However, this accessibility has changed as the movie is now deep into its theatrical run.
