Headlining a summer festival is nothing new for Taylor, who will take the stage at Milwaukee's Summerfest on June 21st. The festival show will seamlessly fit into the tour's schedule, situated between Midwestern stops at Ravinia in Illinois and the Riverbend Amphitheater in Cincinnati. A highlight of the tour will undoubtedly be the performance at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado, set for June 13th and 14th.
