Singer Taylor Swift has been pretty busy over the last few years.

After releasing sister albums Folklore and Evermore in 2020, the "Shake It Off" singer went on to re-release two of her previous albums, Fearless (Taylor's Version), and Red (Taylor's Version). She also wrote, directed, and starred in her "All Too Well: The Short Film," which was based on the ten-minute version of the song, "All Too Well," which appeared on Red (Taylor's Version) in November 2021.

Although she has released several singles for 1989 (Taylor's Version), that album has yet to drop. Instead, while accepting her award at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards in August, the "Betty" singer revealed that she would be releasing her tenth studio album, Midnights, on October 21.

Fans were ecstatic when Taylor Swift joined HAIM on stage earlier this year in London, calling for her to come back on tour. It seems that Swifties "Wildest Dreams" may end up coming true, because a source told Page Six over the weekend that she is planning a stadium tour next summer, although no specific details have been released yet.

“Taylor has some really ambitious plans in place,” the source revealed. “She’s excited to get back on the road after such a long but fruitful break.” A second source told the outlet that "several shows have already been booked," but a rep for the "Bad Blood" singer would not comment on the rumors.

The 32-year-old singer was supposed to go on tour in 2020 for her seventh studio album, Lover, but she was forced to scrap the show entirely due to shutdowns caused by the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.

Lover Fest Was Canceled In 2021 Due To The COVID-19 Pandemic

In February 2021, the "Enchanted" singer tweeted out an apology to her fans after she was forced to cancel Lover Fest. “This is an unprecedented pandemic that has changed everyone’s plans and no one knows what the touring landscape is going to look like in the near future,” she told her fans.

The last time that Taylor took the stage on a large stadium tour was in 2018, to promote her sixth studio album, "Reputation." Page Six reported that it was one of the highest-grossing tours of all time. In addition, one of her performances in Texas was filmed for a concert special that is currently available to stream on Netflix.

Fans can look forward to seeing what Midnights has to offer when it is released on Friday, October 21.
