- City of Lover was a one-day concert by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It was held at the Olympia theater in Paris, France, on September 9, 2019, slightly over two weeks after the release of Swift's seventh studio album Lover (2019). The concert was reserved for fans who had won tickets through online contests or album purchases. The set list consisted of 16 songs, with eight from Lover and eight from Swift's other albums. City of Lover ran for one hour, and was the only concert that Swift held at a music venue to promote Lover, after the planned sixth concert tour Lover Fest world tour was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On May 15, 2020, a TV special titled Taylor Swift: City of Lover, filmed at the concert, was broadcast on ABC in the United States. Compared to the original concert, the TV special only included the eight Lover tracks, and ran for 42 minutes including commercials. The City of Lover concert and its corresponding TV special received positive reviews from media publications, who lauded Swift's stage presence and intimate engagement with fans. Some publications noted that Swift's concert at the Olympia—a venue with a 2,000-seat capacity—was a rare move for her after her 2018 Reputation Stadium Tour, which sold out venues with tens of thousand of seats. A few critics complained that the TV special should have included the whole 16-song set list instead of just the eight Lover songs. The TV special was made available on Hulu and Disney+ for a few weeks since May 16, 2020. (en)
