Taylor Swift didn’t stop in Raleigh on her Eras Tour this summer, but Swifties in the Triangle can still see her nearly three-hour performance on the big screen.

Swift announced her big-screen concert this summer with an Oct. 13 release date. But Wednesday night, Swift dropped another announcement for Swifties: Select theaters around the country will push their opening night up by one day, allowing early access to the concert(ish) experience on Thursday, Oct. 12.

“Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” concert film will be playing at theaters internationally beginning Friday.

You can find theaters near you and showtimes by visiting tstheerastourfilm.com and searching in your city or zip code.

Ticket prices are often $13.13 — a nod to Swift’s longtime favorite numbers — or $19.89 — the title of Swift’s next re-recorded album, dropping Oct. 27.

Here’s how you can snag tickets in and around Raleigh.
