Taylor Swift is unveiling more musical surprises while on tour in Sydney!

On Saturday, the singer, 34, blessed fans with two mashup performances of her songs during the surprise portion of her second Eras concert show in Sydney, Australia. The surprise tracks have become a special point of excitement for fans, as Swift includes two acoustic songs from her 10 studio albums — ones that are not on her main setlist — during each of her Eras Tour shows.

In a video posted from the concert on X (formerly Twitter), Swift sat by a piano onstage as she performed a mashup of her 2017 single, “New Year’s Day” and 2020 song “’Peace” to the roughly 81,000 fans at Sydney’s Accor Stadium.

The second mashup performed by Swift during the concert was of her 2006 song “Should’ve Said No” and 2008 hit “You’re Not Sorry.” Another fan video on X captured the singer at her piano as she performed the medley.

Swift’s latest surprise mashups came after surprising fans on Friday night during her first show in Sydney by performing a duet with Sabrina Carpenter — a medley of “White Horse” and “Coney Island.”

The joint performance came after Carpenter’s opening act was canceled due to bad weather delaying the show on Friday. On Saturday, Swift praised Carpenter, 24, following their duet during her second show as she revealed her sweet text interaction with the singer to the crowds.

“I texted Sabrina and said, ‘How are they out there?’ and her response was ‘Extremely lit and amazing’, ” the “Blank Space” singer shared, before asking the audience to “give it up” for Carpenter.

Carpenter later expressed her love for Swift in a post after their duet, after being a fan of the “Karma” singer since she was a child. “9 year old Sabrina singing white horse would never see this s—- coming!” she wrote in a message. “I love you so so so dearly Taylor. Always have always will.”
In another clip shared from Saturday’s concert on X, Swift shared how welcome she felt by the audience as she stood onstage. “Ah Sydney, you are just … right off the bat you’re making me feel so … just extraordinary right now,” she told the crowd.

Swift’s show on Saturday night was attended by Rebel Wilson, joining famous friends Katy Perry, Rita Ora and her husband Taika Waititi, who watched the singer on Friday. Meanwhile, Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, was also in the audience for Friday’s show, having arrived in Australia on Thursday local time to support the singer on tour.
