TAYLOR MADE: Bringing Taylor Swift's Greatest Hits to Life

For one night only, Perth audiences experienced Taylor Swift's biggest hits performed by Perth Symphony Orchestra with some of Perth's finest vocalists, St Hilda's gorgeous all girls choir and with a little extra sparkle from Star Factory dancers at RAC Arena, Friday May 17.

Venue doors opened at 6:30pm with excited ticket-holders spilling into the venue, ready to jump into the fun activations planned prior to the event. From the Friendship Bracelet Making Station, photos in the wandering Instagram Frame or a 360 fashion video captured by our very own Glam Bot for the evening (with a best dressed prize in tow).

From 7:30pm the powerful vocals of Amber Reid (support act), dominated the RAC Arena stage and filled the stalls as patrons started to fill the seats. Starting the night with some of her incredible originals mixed in with some well known funky covers all could sing along to.

Finally the moment arrived, 8:10pm. The lights went down, the live camera focused on back stage, and each musician in the orchestra put on some sass in their funky outfits (from everything sparkle to pink cowboy hats and boots) as they made their way to stage, with the live camera catching each of their glam cam walks.

Whether you were a devoted fan or someone who loves incredible music, this evening was 'Taylor Made’ for you! The orchestra pulled out all the stops and the singers raised the roof.
It was an amazing vibe the whole evening with concert-goers singing and dancing their hearts out to Taylor Swift songs reimagined.

Audiences were taken on a journey celebrating love, heartbreak and resilience with a banging setlist including some of her biggest hits; Love Story, Cardigan, Cruel Summer, Don’t Blame Me, You Belong With Me, Shake It Off and more. Brilliant visuals, a viral video calling out Taylor to come back to Perth, inspirational Taylor quotes mentioned and more all in celebration of one of the most famous artists of our time.

If you were there, thank you for immersing yourself in an electric atmosphere thriving with energy, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Our big self-promoted event to date. It was one for the books all whilst sticking by out mottos:
'Music for Everyone', 'Fun, Fresh and Fearless' and 'The Orchestra That Breaks the Rules'.
