Travis and Jason Kelce Gush Over Taylor Swift London Concert Experience: ‘It Was F***ing So Special!’
Travis and Jason Kelce were effusive in their praise for Taylor Swift in the latest episode of their podcast after attending her Eras Tour concerts in London.
The Kelce brothers contributed to several viral moments from Swift’s stop in London, including an adorable moment Jason shared with a young fan wearing his jersey, meeting the British Royal family, and of course, Travis’ debut concert stage performance that sent Swifties swooning.
Wednesday morning, the much anticipated “London episode” of New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce dropped, filmed at a Philadelphia-themed bar in London. Jason opened the show with a pre-July 4th dig at Britain, joking that they were broadcasting “from a country that blew a 13-colony lead.”
After some chatter about a charity golf tournament (Jason’s wife Kylie Kelce has a truly impressive swing) and trying various British foods (the brothers both gave rave reviews for the tea), the topic turned to Swift’s three-night concert performance.

Travis mentioned that it was Jason and Kylie’s first Swift concert and they got to see “Tay absolutely shred it.” Jason chimed in by calling the experience “amazing.”
Travis recalled how he had previously played football at Wembley Stadium in 2015, but it was a totally different experience seeing his girlfriend’s concert at that same venue with 90,000 enthusiastic Swifties in attendance. “They get a lot louder for Taylor than they do for American football,” he chuckled.
“It was insanely impressive,” said Jason. “Obviously, Taylor’s an amazing singer-songwriter, but then, to be able to go out there and be a performer at that level — for how long?”
“Unbelievable,” Travis agreed.
“She was up there for like three-and-a-half hours? Four hours?” said Jason.
“Yeah — 45 songs,” said Travis. “Insane, man.”
“Oh my gosh,” said Jason. “If I did what she did for one song, I would have to change my clothes.”
“I’m in the tent like, gosh, I need a break,” said Travis.
“Yeah, man, I’m tired of drinking these beers and Taylor’s still singing!” joked Jason. “Can’t feel my hand anymore because all these friendship bracelets are cutting off my circulation.”
“It was an awesome experience,” Jason continued. “Obviously, the Swifties make it very memorable. They know all the songs…Dude, I’ve never cried at a f***ing concert, and I was literally tearing up…it was f***ing so special.”
Travis commented that it was “so fun” to have their friends and family at the concert “and have a few beers while she absolutely killed it on stage.”
