During the show, Swift thrilled her fans with a guitar performance of 'Fresh Out the Slammer', one of her surprise songs, as per Eras Tour tradition, incorporating it into a mash-up with her 1989 hit 'You Are in Love'. She then moved to her piano for a performance of 'Ivy' from 'Evermore' mixed with 'Call It What You Want' from 'Reputation'.
When she flubbed the opening notes, she remarked, "Sometimes you just don't hit the right note," before restarting the song.
