On Monday, August 5, Swift announced five new openers who will grace the stage in addition to Paramore, who have been opening throughout this leg for Swift.

“Just wanted to tell you about something coming up that I’ve been so excited about: We’re adding 5 incredible artists to our 5 Wembley shows, going on right before Paramore!!” Swift wrote on her Instagram Story. “I asked them to play on this tour because I love their music and think they’ll absolutely smash it in Wembley Stadium!! Go check out their music if you haven’t already. Gonna be a fun 5 nights!!!”

Swift then tagged Sofia Isella, Holly Humberstone, Suki Waterhouse, Maisie Peters, and Raye.

According to Swift’s official website, the opener schedule will go as follows:

Peters served as Uproxx’s July 2023 cover star, and she spoke about the integral role Swift played in her musical upbringing.
