Taylor Swift Fans Are Recreating the Eras Tour Stage with Gingerbread Kits

Why build a gingerbread house when you can build Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour instead?

That’s the idea behind a new viral trend on TikTok, where Swift fans buy a supply of gingerbread houses and use them to recreate their idea of ​​what the Eras Tour concert stage looks like for the holidays.

Videos under the search “Eras Tour Stadium Gingerbread House” on TikTok have already garnered over 5.1 million views, while videos under “i buy the stadium gingerbread house eras tour” have reached 1.2 billion views.

Some fans recreated the stadium and concert stage from scratch, using dozens of gingerbread men (and graham crackers) for the long Eras Tour stage and sprinklers for lights.

TikTok user @daylightillustrations showed his process for making a stage by hand, first by cutting out a stage-shaped cookie shape and coloring it with various frostings and sprinkles. They also created different sets from the concert, including Swift’s mossy house and her dancers holding large colorful fans.

The Gingerbread stage was graced by none other than Licatarian’s version of the singer in a glittery purple and blue bodysuit made from frosting, as seen here Taylor Swift The Eras Tour concert film poster.

Others decided to take the Holiday Stadium Gingerbread House Kit — which was on sale for $13 at Target before it sold out — and use it as the base for their version of what the concert looked like. (Swift’s tour took place in major soccer stadiums across the US) However, instead of building a soccer field with players, the Swfities renovated the stadium to put the “Anti-Hero” singer’s stage in the middle.
