Taylor Swift performs during The Eras Tour stop at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas, on April 21, 2023 in Houston, Texas.

Taylor Swift announced on Thursday that she will be bringing her "The Eras Tour" to New Orleans in 2024.

If you're trying to plan how you can see one of her three shows, what you need to bring and what songs she'll be performing, we've got you covered.

Here's what you can expect from Swift's "The Eras Tour" shows.

If you're looking to get a ticket for "The Eras Tour," you may want to sign up for Ticketmaster's Registered Fan presale.

The tour is in high demand, so if you want to secure a ticket, here's how you can do it until August 5.

Ticket sales for Ticketmaster Verified Fans will begin at 11 a.m. on Thursday, August 10.

At each of Swift's shows, she performs songs from each of her 10 albums. Each album marks a different "era" in her musical career.

But Swift also loves surprising her fans, and she includes two surprise songs on her setlist for each of her shows. Every "The Eras Tour" show gets its own unique surprise songs from any album or era. Swift performs one song on piano and one on guitar.

While it's impossible to predict what surprise songs Swift will perform, you can expect to hear the surprise songs when Swift finishes off her 1989 era with a performance of "Bad Blood."

Swift will perform at Caesars Superdome for all three of her New Orleans shows.

The Superdome has a clear bag policy. All bags are prohibited other than "clear bags no larger than 12" wide x 12" height x 6" deep, Gallon Size Ziploc Bags (Limit 1 of either) and Small Clutch Purses no larger than 4.5" x 6.5". Non-clear diaper bags are prohibited," according to its website.

Outside food and drink, cans and bottles, weapons, fireworks, video cameras, cameras with a lens exceeding 6”, sticks/poles/selfie sticks, iPads, GoPros, confetti, glitter, beach balls, laser pointers, mace, artificial noisemakers, drones, whistles and containers of any kind are also prohibited.

'Make the friendship bracelets, take this moment and taste it'

While it may seem like a throw-away line in a song that means nothing literal, Swifties have taken it very literally.

Concertgoers at other stops have crafted bracelets to swap at the concert. Some include clever lines from Swift's songs, quippy quotes from the pop star and other creative designs that represent what the Eras tour means to them.

Swift fans have also been known to make specific bracelets for rumored celebrity guests that come to see the tour.

Based on what concert goers have said, here are some items to think of bringing to the Superdome:

Swift is coming during hurricane season, so there is most likely a risk of rain at some point during her three-night stint in New Orleans.

While the Superdome is indoors, unlike other venues, bringing an umbrella or rain poncho to protect your outfit would be wise.

Taylor Swift fans in Louisiana rejoiced Thursday morning at the news that the super star would be extending her tour with three night in New Orleans.

Taylor Swift is coming to New Orleans — and she'll be performing three nights in a row.

This year, live shows are bigger and better than ever.
