As the Eras Tour reaches its final performance in Vancouver, Taylor Swift fans are running out of time to see the record-breaking artist live.
Swift was the most-streamed artist of 2024, helped by the release of The Tortured Poets Department and the prominence of her record-breaking Eras Tour, which saw her visit six continents in the highest-grossing concert campaign by a solo musician.
Swift is closing out the tour in Vancouver, visiting the Canadian city from December 6-8, so time is running out for fans to get to the city. For concertgoers in the U.S., there are several ways to reach Vancouver, but some are definitely faster than others.
By Train
Amtrak’s Cascades line operates a direct route connecting several U.S. cities in the Pacific Northwest, such as Seattle, to Vancouver’s Pacific Central Station.
The journey showcases breathtaking views of the Cascade Mountains and Puget Sound, making it a popular choice for those prioritizing a relaxed travel experience.
Passengers should plan ahead as seats can sell out quickly, especially around major events like a Taylor Swift concert. Booking through the Amtrak website or app is recommended for real-time updates and ticket availability.

By Plane
Flying is the fastest way to reach Vancouver from most U.S. cities, making it ideal for fans traveling long distances to see the Eras Tour. Vancouver International Airport (YVR) is well-connected with major hubs across the U.S., including Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago.
Airlines such as Delta, United, and Air Canada offer frequent flights. Upon arrival, travelers will be able to take a short taxi ride or the SkyTrain from the airport to downtown Vancouver, where the concert venue is located. Short-notice tickets might be a bit expensive, though.
By Car
Driving to Vancouver will take longer, but it provides the most flexibility. For those traveling from nearby states like Washington or Oregon, the trip can be completed in a few hours, with Seattle being just a 2.5-hour drive from Vancouver.
Major highways, including Interstate 5, lead directly to the Canadian border, where drivers must present a valid passport or approved travel document. Fans driving to the concert should account for potential delays at the border crossing and parking availability near the concert venue. Planning to arrive early is advisable, especially during high-traffic times.
By Coach
Traveling to Vancouver by coach is an affordable and convenient option for fans attending the Eras Tour. Companies like Greyhound and BoltBus operate regular services from cities in the Pacific Northwest, such as Seattle and Portland, to Vancouver.
Coaches are equipped with amenities like Wi-Fi and reclining seats, ensuring a comfortable ride for passengers. The journey typically takes about four hours from Seattle, including time for customs clearance at the border.
Passengers should bring their passports or other required documentation for border processing. Coach terminals in Vancouver, such as Pacific Central Station, are centrally located, providing easy access to hotels and the concert venue.
