Taylor Swift’s much-anticipated Buenos Aires leg of the Eras Tour faced an unexpected setback as the pop icon decided to postpone the Friday night show due to inclement weather. Lightning, striking six miles from the venue, cast a stormy shadow over the event, rendering it unsafe to continue. Swift, known for her unwavering dedication to her fans, took to Instagram to reassure them, emphasizing that she would never jeopardize their safety for a performance.

Despite the rain check, Swift managed to find a silver lining in the storm clouds, announcing the rescheduled show for Sunday. In a true show of camaraderie, Sabrina Carpenter, the opening act for the tour, reposted Swift’s message on her own Story, expressing love and urging fans to stay safe until the rescheduled performance.

Social media played witness to the severity of the weather, with footage showing rain pouring down into the open-air stadium, flooding the pits and creating an unexpected aquatic spectacle. Despite the setback, Swift maintained a positive outlook, pointing out the bright side of an extended stay in Argentina.

The Latin American leg of the Eras Tour kicked off on a high note with a stunning Thursday night performance at Estadio River Plate. Swift not only dazzled the audience with her musical prowess but also debuted a series of show-stopping outfits, including a red bejeweled diamante bodysuit, a metallic blue two-piece, and a sprawling, sequined lilac gown. Fan-recorded videos circulating on social media captured the warm welcome the singer received from her enthusiastic Argentinian Swifties, who passionately sang along to every lyric.

Adding to the excitement, Swift surprised fans by performing the romantic Midnights song “Labyrinth” live for the first time on the Eras Tour. The unexpected setlist addition added a unique touch to an already unforgettable night.

While Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, romantically linked with Swift in recent months, was notably absent from the Thursday night show, sources close to PEOPLE have indicated that the NFL star, aged 34, is planning to visit Swift during her extended stay in Argentina, further fueling rumors of their blossoming romance.

Looking ahead, the Eras Tour is set to continue its global journey, with Swift scheduled to bring her acclaimed show to Brazil later this month. The Brazilian leg will feature three dates in Rio de Janeiro, followed by three more dates in São Paulo. These performances mark the final dates for the Eras Tour this year, concluding its successful North American leg that kicked off in the spring.

Swifties around the world can rest assured that the pop sensation will be hitting the road again next year, taking the Eras Tour to new heights across Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, and the U.K. As the rain-soaked drama in Buenos Aires settles, fans can expect more unforgettable moments, show-stopping performances, and, undoubtedly, a few surprises from Taylor Swift on the global stage.
