Travis Kelce pulled out all the stops to celebrate Taylor Swift’s 35th birthday in grand style, organizing a surprise party that has fans buzzing with excitement. The Kansas City Chiefs star enlisted the help of friends and a professional party planner to ensure the event was a spectacular success.
A Party to Remember
The party, which took place in Kansas City, was Eras Tour-themed, paying homage to Swift’s record-breaking global tour that wrapped just days before her birthday. New details and visuals from the night, shared by Kelce’s longtime friend DJ E-V, have offered fans a deeper look at the evening’s festivities.
DJ E-V, who has collaborated with Kelce at his Kelce Jam music festival and attended numerous Chiefs games as his guest, was on the decks for the party. One standout feature was a giant red neon sign reading “End of an Era” above the DJ booth, a nod to Swift’s celebrated tour.
E-V also revealed his playlist for the night, which included hits from The Rolling Stones, Prince, Tame Impala, and Earth, Wind & Fire. Interestingly, it appears that Swift’s own music wasn’t part of the mix, letting the couple and their guests enjoy a variety of other iconic tracks.
The Big Surprise
According to Swift’s friends, the singer believed she was heading out for an intimate dinner with Kelce when she was greeted by her closest friends and family for the surprise celebration.
Swift’s close friend Ashley Avignone took to Instagram to share the singer’s reaction, writing, “When she thought she was going to a small, quiet dinner but it was actually a giant surprise party with her friends and family, props included.”

Inside the Celebration
Photos from the party have since flooded social media, offering glimpses of the over-the-top details Kelce orchestrated. Guests embraced the Eras theme, wearing costumes inspired by different stages of Swift’s career and even homemade friendship bracelets, a staple of her concerts.
Brittany Mahomes, wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, shared photos from the event, showcasing the festive outfits and the lively atmosphere. Kelce also gave a heartfelt speech during the party, further highlighting his affection for Swift.
Behind-the-Scenes Support
Kelce didn’t organize the party alone. One of his close friends, Harry Clark, shared on Instagram that party planner Amanda Carlo played a significant role in making the night unforgettable.
“Mrs. Make it happen Amanda Carlo,” Clark wrote alongside a photo from the event, tagging Carlo and thanking her for her efforts.
Carlo, known for her expertise in creating high-profile events, ensured every detail of the party reflected Kelce’s vision and Swift’s unique style.
A Weekend to Celebrate
The festivities didn’t end with the party. Swift returned to Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday to cheer on Kelce and the Chiefs as they secured a 27-19 victory over the Houston Texans. The game marked Kansas City’s last home matchup of the regular season, pushing their record to an impressive 14-1.
Kelce recorded five receptions for 30 yards during the game, continuing his strong season as the Chiefs eye another Super Bowl run.
What’s Next?
The Chiefs head to Pittsburgh for a Christmas Day showdown against the Steelers, and fans are eager to see if Swift will attend her first road game of the season. While she has yet to join Kelce at an away game, the holidays may inspire her to break the trend.
With their relationship continuing to capture the hearts of fans, Kelce and Swift’s partnership—both on and off the field—shows no signs of slowing down.
From lavish parties to game-day support, the couple continues to dominate headlines and win fans over with their undeniable chemistry.
