Some may scoff at the thought of Taylor Swift and roll their eyes at fans who spent days queuing to get tickets to her Eras tour stop in Singapore.
However, Swift means so much more than a pop icon to her fans, also known as the Swifties.
On Dec. 13, 2023, Swift's 34th birthday, about 200 Swifties gathered at Peace Centre to celebrate with cake, music and giveaways.
At the venue, different areas were set up to reflect Swift's different album.
The walls around the space had projections of Swift from different eras, with her songs blasting through the speakers.
There was also a photo booth set up where they could take home a picture with a Taylor Swift Frame.
More people began to stream in from 3pm onwards, and the place started to fill up. Fans took photos with each area they loved and danced to the songs playing on the speaker. There was even a cake to commemorate the event.
However, there was one spot that was my favourite — yes, I'm a Swiftie — and that is the friendship bracelet wall.
Friendship bracelets and dress-up
Dotted with fairy lights, friendship bracelets hung across the wall where Swifties can swap handmade friendship bracelets.
