In the last episodes of Disney+’s “The End of an Era,” which is named after her grandmother’s song “Marjorie” from the Evermore album, Taylor Swift takes a teary victory lap to end her record-breaking Eras Tour. Episode 5 honors personal roots while showing backstage highs, like Swift’s interactions with her fiancé Travis Kelce and guests like Florence Welch. The show shows real moments from the $2 billion tour, mixing concert footage, interviews, and stories from the crew.
In Episode 6, Swift gives a moving speech to her team before the Vancouver finale on December 8, 2024, at BC Place Stadium. She talks about how the phenomenon has lasted. She quotes, “Everyone is envious of what you have, but no one is envious of what you had to go through to get it,” which shows that her success was not just a fluke. Fans love the close-up look at her last bow and call it a perfect, happy-tears ending.
Key points that stand out: Gorman, the backup singer, fought breast cancer and came back to the tour after treatment. Swift’s emotional reaction to the 2024 Southport stabbing at a Swift-themed class and the cancellation of the Vienna terror plot.
Disney+ released Episodes 5 and 6 early on December 23, 2025, instead of the planned December 26 date. This gave Swifties a Christmas gift of closure. The six-part series, directed by Don Argott and Sheena M. Joyce, is now fully available to stream. It has been released in parts every week since December 12. It shows the human side of the cultural juggernaut, from the creative chaos to the global effect.
