71 of 85 dates
The 1989 World Tour was the highest-grossing concert tour of 2015. It opened on 5 May 2015 and visited 85 locations over seven months, ending on 12 December at AAMI Park in Melbourne.
Mojo Barriers was contracted for 71 of the 85 dates: all 63 North American shows and eight in Europe.
A thrust into the audience
For the stadium dates, Mojo supplied 850 feet of barrier around the thrust, which extended into the audience, and used it to create VIP areas inside the stadiums. For the arena dates, 550 feet of crowd barrier wrapped around the stage.
Mojo Barriers US also coordinated the hire of nine Gladiator IV 4.5k follow spots from SpotRental.
Not the first tour
Taylor Swift’s 1989 World Tour demanded high production values and being the highest grossing concert tour of 2015 meant professionalism was required to meet the busy schedule with consistently high standards. We’re proud to have been part of that team.
It was not the first collaboration: Mojo Barriers had also supplied her previous world tour, ‘Red’, in 2013.
