What Fans Need to Know Before the Show in Minnesota

If you’re planning on attending one of the screenings, don’t be late. Marcus Theatres, which operates eight cinemas in Minnesota, announced that unlike traditional movies, there will be no trailers before the screening. The show will begin exactly at the scheduled time, so fans should plan to be in their seats before lights dim.

Industry experts predict Swift’s release could generate over $35 million at the box office this weekend alone. With tickets already scarce at several Minnesota showings, those numbers are looking realistic. For Swifties, it’s not just about watching an album unfold—it’s about being part of a moment in music history happening right here in Minnesota.
