Watch Taylor Swift wish fans ‘Happy Pride Month’ at Lyon Eras Show.
Taylor Swift brought joy and celebration to tens of thousands of fans in Lyon, France during her Eras Tour concert on the second day of Pride Month. The pop star marked the special occasion with a heartfelt moment on stage on Sunday, June 2.
The festive moment occurred early in Swift’s lengthy set, amidst the Lover era. While performing her 2019 hit dedicated to the LGBTQ community, “You Need to Calm Down,” the 14-time Grammy winner enthusiastically exclaimed, “Happy Pride Month, Lyon!”
The audience at Groupama Stadium erupted in applause in response to Swift’s acknowledgment. This concert not only marked Swift’s first performance of Pride Month 2024 but also her first of two back-to-back Eras shows in Lyon.
During the concert, Swift impressed her European fans by speaking in French, the native language of the location. Still embracing the Lover era, she greeted the crowd in French, saying, “Bienvenue dans la Eras Tour!” She also requested assistance in French from the security staff to help a fan in need during the show.
“Aidez-les, s’il-vous-plaît,” Swift said before playing “Champagne Problems” on the piano, indicating the staff to aid the concertgoer. She continued to engage with the audience in their language, showcasing her genuine connection with her fans.
