Taylor's version of downtown Toronto is here.

The city unveiled 22 new street signs marking what has been dubbed Taylor Swift Way for the month of November. The path runs from Nathan Phillips Square, where city hall is located, south to the Rogers Centre stadium.


Swift will take the Rogers Centre stage for six nights this month, from Nov. 14-16 and then Nov. 21-23. All six shows are sold-out and the city is expecting a massive influx of Swifties, as well as an anticipated economic boost of over $250 million.

"We had a blank space" and wrote her name... on street signs!" said the City of Toronto on social media.

Over the course of the month, the signs will also be auctioned off online, with proceeds going to Daily Bread Food Bank. Rogers plans to match the auction funds up to $113,000.

The street signs aren't the only infrastructural change prompted by Swift. The city will also have a "Limited Activity Zone" downtown during the two weeks of Swift's tenure, to try and limit gridlock. Rogers, meanwhile, has upgraded the stadium's 5G network to account for data use during the shows.

Though the city will shake off its new street signs in December, auction winners will get to keep a little piece of Taylor's Toronto forever and always. Bidding for the auction is open now.

Alex Warren Rolls Out 2027 Canadian Dates For Finding (More) Family on the Road World Tour

The outing will kick off in the U.S. on April 5 in Oklahoma City and is scheduled to wind down on May 16 in Birmingham, Ala.

Alex Warren will hit the road in North America again on his Finding (More) Family on the Road outing in 2027. On Friday morning (Nov. 13), the “Ordinary” singer announced the dates for a 26-city North American run of shows next spring that is slated to kick off on April 5 at the Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, Okla., and continue on to stops in Orlando, Tampa, Knoxville, St. Louis, Winnipeg, Ottawa, Baltimore and Raleigh, N.C. before winding down on May 16 at the Coca-Cola Amphitheater in Birmingham, Ala.

The dates were announced in a hilarious faux rom-com promo clip featuring former Modern Family star Eric Stonestreet. “How could you!?,” a devastated, a rain-soaked Warren shouts at Stonestreet while being swamped in a storm. “You never came to a show! I waited for you!”
