Fans who either couldn’t land concert tickets — or those who did and loved it — have been encouraged to plan for “Eras attire, friendship bracelets, singing and dancing.” It’s just the latest time that Swift has made waves in the Garden State.

🌟 Swifties flock to LBI for star-studded wedding

Taylor Swift dared to brave the Jersey Shore during peak summer season, in the name of friendship. Swift, Channing Tatum and Zoe Kravitz were all seen in Beach Haven on Aug. 18, attending the wedding rehearsal celebration of NJ musician, Jack Antonoff and actress, Margaret Qualley.

Throngs of fans filled the streets of the island, to catch a glimpse of Swift, even chanting her name.

There was similar turnout the following day, during the actual wedding of the newlyweds, according to multiple reports.

🌟 Eras Tour at Metlife Stadium: Traffic crunch, no tailgating for fans

The three, record-setting nights that the Eras tour arrived in the swamps of Jersey also caused lots of commotion.

Swift fans who didn’t score elusive concert tickets were denied access to the MetLife parking lots, in order to “Taylor-gate” (tailgate).


Ticketless fans instead were encouraged to gather in the parking lot of American Dream Mall, just across from the stadium.

🌟 NJ man breaks into Swift’s vacation home

In 2019, Swift was spending a decent amount of time at her Rhode Island beachfront mansion.

That’s when a young New Jersey man reportedly drove up and broke into the property — though he apparently removed his shoes before heading inside.

The 26-year-old from Milford undoubtedly caused a stir among his family and friends in Hunterdon County.

That includes in 2019 — when Swift first made a quick stop at a Target in Jersey City.

She shared her shopping trip as a story on Instagram, as she checked on the display and inventory of deluxe editions of her then latest album, "Lover.”

Fans instantly recognized the pop star.
