I genuinely cannot wait for that feeling when I walk through into my stand for my first Dublin show and see the stage where she’s going to be RIGHT there it all its glory. From the moment we get in the car to travel down I’m going to be insufferable with excitement. It’s a good thing my mum is coming with me because she’ll be right up there with my ‘I’ve lost all my sanity’ levels since it’s feels like it’s been so long since we saw Taylor together! I’m so EXCITED!!! See you soon @taylorswift ♥️

Dear Taylor, Love Eloise 💕
Dear Taylor, I have always told myself the very first thing I would say to you is thank you. I’m so excited to see you again at Croke Park in Dublin (🇮🇪☘️) June 15th and 16th. I managed to score seats at Lower 303 Stand Row Y Seat 13 (!!!) and 14. I also snatched tickets for Dublin night #2 at 718 row A seats 4 & 5.

I’ve been a fan for over seven years. If I listed all the reasons to say thank you to you from over the years this would turn out to be a very long letter. Your music has entered my life at various points and become a light at the end of the tunnel that I thought was never-ending. The pain of losing someone is soul crushing, the pain of betrayal and point blank ignorance stung more than I thought it would and sent me on a very nasty spiral downwards. Every day I walked the corridors, waiting for the final bell and with my headphones firmly plugged in and your voice blasting through their speakers. It was a welcomed distraction and helped me to tap into strength that I didn’t even know that I had… and I found the end of the tunnel.
The power of music has always left me speechless and it is why I have immensely enjoyed supporting you over the past seven years. One of my very first concerts was to your Belfast show for the Speak Now tour in 2011 where my mum and I screamed and danced to every word.
We traveled to London in 2013 to see you perform for the Red tour (and nearly died of excitement when Ed was the surprise guest - thank you for bringing him!). It has always amazed me how, completely unknowingly, you have showed up just in time. The show created important memories that became a weapon in my arsenal in the next few months when it felt like I was in the middle of a hurricane.
For 1989′s release we had a meet-up in Dublin to celebrate and put a few photos on instagram, not thinking anything of it… and you liked them!
In 2015 I managed to go to three 1989 shows. One in Glasgow and two in Dublin. My mum came with me to Glasgow. We had so much fun, you put on an incredible show as always. We had ourselves wrapped up in fairy lights and looked like human Christmas trees.
For the first show in Dublin I met up with some of the #IrishSwiftieSquad and we queued for hours and hours to get front row - but the venue had oversold the pit and we ended up a few rows back! We all had a fantastic time and we got to take part in the ‘We ♥️ Mama Swift’ project too!
On the second night, it was a family event and we that decided that we’d get ourselves to the barrier. So we queued for countless hours again, in the blazing heat (a rarity for Ireland!).
We managed to get barrier and I was literally shaking with a mixture of exhaustion and excitement. It, to this day, was the best show I’ve ever been to. Thank you so much for coming back to Ireland ☘️
We had such an incredible night. I still can not believe it was real. I feel so lucky to have been able to see the 1989 tour so close.
Reputation’s release came with an honorary photoshoot with my cat (who was incredibly unimpressed).
*reputation tour memories pending*
The likelihood of this ever reaching you is slim and the likelihood of getting to say some of this to you in person is slimmer again. But in the off chance you see this, I would just like to say thank you. There are so many words that are left unspoken that I just do not want to put on the internet. But you have been there so unknowingly and always right on time when, in hindsight, I needed it the most. And for that, I will support you fiercely no matter what comes our way.
I cannot wait for the memories the reputation tour is going to bring. I cannot wait to hold on to them as dearly as I have to the ones before. I cannot wait to dance and sing to every single word without a single care of how mad I look to the people around me. I cannot wait to share the night with my best friend.
Most of all, I cannot wait to spend my weekend with someone who, although I may be one face among many in such an insane and incredible crowd to, has never once made me feel like a stranger.
Thank you, Taylor. I’ll see you soon.
All the love,
Eloise x

🇮🇪 reputation stadium tour Dublin night 1 & 2 🇮🇪
🍀 See you soon Taylor ☘️
“When I was writing reputation, for a while there I felt really, really misunderstood by a lot of people, and so I just want to say thank you to the fans for continuing to show up... The ways that you have cared about me and treated me... thank you for making me feel understood again”
🎶 Here’s a toast to my real friends fans, they don’t care about the he said she said 🎶
In Dublin, the happenstances that brought us all to be in the same room whether they be joyous or full of heartache, fade away and the happiness that emerges from screaming the words to the songs that we’ve been jamming to on our own, in our cars and rooms becomes one gigantic party full of likeminds. And I cannot wait to experience that with all of you.
I’ve been a fan for 7 years, and after the two rep shows in Dublin, I’ll have been lucky enough to have seen Taylor 7 times.
Thank you for coming back to Ireland, @taylorswift, I hope you will have as much fun performing for us as I will be dancing and singing to every word.
See you so soon Taylor
Love, Eloise
(P.S If here’s my seat numbers if anyone wants to come and say hi!)
🐍 Night One: Lower 303 Row Y Seats 13 &14
🐍 Night Two: Upper 718 Row A Seats 4 & 5
Oh, and here’s my letter to Taylor, if you would like to read it: click here
