Taylor Swift Academy Museum Gala and Chiefs game appearances

Overview

Taylor Swift performed a set at the sixth annual Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles, which included tracks such as ‘Blank Space’, ‘Love Story’, and ‘I Knew It, I Knew You’ from the Toy Story 5 soundtrack. Subsequent reports highlighted the live debut of the song ‘The Fate of Ophelia’ from ‘Life of a Showgirl’. The performance, introduced by Conan O'Brien, occurred shortly before the start of the Oscars voting season. Academy Museum Director Amy Homma described Swift as an ‘extraordinary talent’. Less than 24 hours after the gala, Swift traveled to Kansas City to support her husband, Travis Kelce, at Arrowhead Stadium on October 18, 2026. She attended the Kansas City Chiefs’ 22-6 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers from a VIP suite alongside Donna Kelce, musician Este Haim, and WNBA star Caitlin Clark. During the game, Kelce received medical attention for a right ankle injury sustained in the opening minutes but returned to play, helping the Chiefs reach a 5-0 record. For the game, Swift wore a red Louis Vuitton turtleneck bodysuit and signature red lipstick in support of the team. During the outing, Swift was seen sharing an affectionate embrace with Donna Kelce. However, she also appeared to react with frustration toward a spectator in a lower row who attempted to film her, gesturing for the individual to stop recording. Eyewitness Ashlie Molstad reported that a woman in Oktoberfest attire, claiming to be from Germany, repeatedly approached the VIP suite to take photos. Molstad noted that security intervened multiple times, instructing the woman she was in the wrong seats. In a more recent appearance at an Arrowhead Stadium game, Swift wore a gold-and-ruby wrap ring by Retrouvaí.
