Taylor Swift’s face lit up with joy when she noticed her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, in the crowd during her final Eras Tour show at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium on Sunday, June 30. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s presence was a delightful surprise for Swift, who performed three shows in Dublin.

Kelce had just attended his teammate Clyde Edwards-Helaire’s wedding in Calabasas, California, on June 29 before flying to Dublin to support Swift. Fans captured the heartwarming moment on X (formerly known as Twitter), showing Swift’s face brightening as she spotted Kelce, dressed casually in a white T-shirt, dark pants, and a baseball cap, in the VIP tent.

One fan posted a video with the caption, “I can’t move on from how you can see the exact moment her eyes go to the tent and she realizes he’s there 😭.” Another clip showed Kelce entering the stadium to cheers from the audience as Swift performed her song “August” from the 2020 album Folklore.

Kelce’s appearance in Dublin marked his first at an Eras Tour show since his onstage debut at Swift’s Wembley Stadium concert in London on June 23. The Dublin show was star-studded, with Kelce seen chatting with actress Julia Roberts in a fan-shared clip.

After the concert, Kelce and Swift were seen leaving the stadium together, smiling and waving to fans in a video shared on TikTok. The night before, Swift experienced a minor technical issue during her performance of “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” when a raised platform malfunctioned. Backup dancer Jan Ravnik assisted Swift off the platform, allowing the show to continue smoothly.

Swift also shared a special connection with Ireland during her Dublin shows. She told the audience how Ireland inspired her pandemic-era album Folklore. “Folklore in general, it just belongs in Ireland,” she said. “How I imagined the album world looking [was like] Ireland. Storytelling with lots of different characters… I gotta be honest, kinda seemed like Ireland.”
