The second of the surprise numbers came when Taylor invited her supporting act Sabrina Carpenter Sabrina on stage so the pair would perform a cover of White Horse mixed with Coney Island.
Swift’s first Sydney concert kicked off late Friday night after storms and rain caused the Accor Stadium to be temporarily evacuated.
Despite the set for supporting act Sabrina Carpenter being canceled, Swift ultimately took the stage just over 20 minutes after the scheduled start time of 7:30 PM.
Looking on proudly was her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, who caused a roar from the crowd as he arrived to proudly watch his beloved pop star do what she does best.

Sydney’s wild weather caused chaos on Friday evening for the 80,000 Swifties heading to her first show of the Eras Tour in the city.
Fans seated on the ground and lower bowl levels of the stadium were asked to move inside after lightning struck just 6 miles (10 kilometers) away shortly before 6 p.m.
A statement from Accor Stadium, issued just before 6 p.m., told concertgoers that the three-hour show had been postponed.
“Please note: due to weather, the show start time has been postponed,” it said.
‘Remain undercover until further notice and follow the site screens and staff instructions.
“Stay safe and remember to be kind to those around you.”
Swift took the stage around 7:50 p.m., while her supporting act Sabrina Carpenter was suspended from Friday night’s performance.
