Pop superstar Taylor Swift will take over a major attraction in Central Florida.

It’s no exaggeration to say that Taylor Swift is one of the most famous names on the planet right now. The singer – who is currently in the second year of her global Eras tour – was named TIME Magazine’s Person of the Year for 2023 for having “perfected her craft – not just with her music, but in her position as a master storyteller of the modern era.”

Swift recently released her eleventh studio album, The Tortured Poets Department (not including re-recordings of Taylor’s Version), and shows no signs of slowing down any time soon. The star has long been rumored to be making her Marvel Studios debut, with fans speculating she’ll take on roles ranging from Mutant Dazzler to Lady Deadpool.

(Entertainment Weekly has confirmed that Swift will not be attending.) Deadpool and Wolverine (2024), when the film premieres later this month, despite her close friendship with star Ryan Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively).

Without too Deadpool and Wolverine Swift still has a lot planned for the rest of 2024. Swifties are convinced she will soon release her latest re-recording, “Reputation (Taylor’s Version),” as part of her ongoing efforts to regain ownership and control of her music. She also has the remaining European dates of her Eras Tour ahead of her, plus a handful in Canada and the United States.

One of those dates will see her travel to Florida. Swift will play three nights at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens from October 18-20. This will be her second Florida appearance on the tour, having previously played three nights at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa in April 2023.

To mark the occasion, Brightline has confirmed that the spirit of Taylor Swift will lead the service on these dates for select bookings with a special sing-along train from Orlando, Florida’s theme park capital.

The bullet train — which runs between Orlando and Aventura, the closest Brightline station to Hard Rock Stadium — will welcome DJs from Orlando’s XL106.7 and Magic 107.7, special Swiftie decor, and themed food and beverages for the occasion. See the full description below (via Brightline).

Your fast ride from Orlando is here. Brightline presents the unique sing-along trains to the big concert at Hard Rock Stadium. Sing your heart out with your fellow fans on the ride to Aventura, featuring DJs from Orlando’s XL106.7 and Magic107.7 – courtesy of iHeartRadio. Enjoy specialty cocktails and snacks, photo opportunities and sing along to all your favorite songs played on board. And your ride home is secured with overnight trains departing from Aventura Station.

Those who want to book the three-hour ride on a Taylor Swift-themed train will need to look for a pink icon when selecting tickets on the Brightline website. As you might expect, these rides are more expensive than regular trips between Orlando and Aventura (which will continue to be available in a non-Swiftie version at certain times). The sing-along train experience starts at $209 each way.

Once Swifties arrive at Aventura on Brightline (there have long been rumors of a station opening at Walt Disney World Resort), they can take advantage of the free shuttle transportation between the stadium and the station. This will arrive at Aventura Station every 10 minutes, with the ride taking between 30 minutes and an hour, depending on traffic forecasts.

If you weren’t able to get tickets to the Hard Rock Stadium concerts (in which case, curse Ticketmaster), you can always stream The Eras Tour on Disney+. Desperate times call for desperate measures.
