The people of Milan showed Taylor Swift a good time.

After the 34-year-old pop superstar performed two shows at San Siro in the Italian City on July 13 and 14, she posted to Instagram and expressed gratitude in a heartfelt post.

“WOW. MILAN,” began Swift’s caption on July 15. “Those were truly 2 of my favorite crowds ever.”

The Grammy winner continued, “The passion and generosity you showed us… it was a dream come true to perform for you. Grazi mille!! We’ll be back!!”

Swift’s Milan shows were quite eventful. During the July 13 performance, she started coughing after swallowing a bug in the midst the secret songs segment of the Eras Tour.

“I knew it would happen ’cause there’s so many bugs here tonight,” she told the concerned crowd amid a surprise mashup of “I Almost Do” and “The Moment I Knew,” both from Red.

“It’ll be fine, I just need to cough a little,” added Swift before moving on with the rest of the performance — as she did when she previously swallowed bugs at Era Tours shows in London in June and in Chicago in 2023.

The “All Too Well” singer-songwriter also debuted new outfits during her Milan shows. For the Fearless era section on July 13, Swift wore a brand new Roberto Cavalli minidress designed by creative director Fausto Puglisi, who was also in attendance at the show.

The same day, Swift changed up her Vivienne Westwood dress for the Tortured Poets Department era. While the ensemble usually features “Fortnight” lyrics on the skirt, the new version in Milan had lyrics to “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?” instead.

Additionally, while performing a mashup of Reputation‘s “Getaway Car” and “Out of the Woods” in Milan on July 14, Swift experienced a piano malfunction.

“We have finally broken this thing,” Swift told the crowd while looking underneath the piano’s lid, as seen in a fan video shared on TikTok, while a crew member tried to fix the instrument.

According to a different fan’s video on X (formerly Twitter) shows the triumphant moment after the piano was fixed. Swift closed the lid and said, “Oh, I did it!”
