New details have emerged from the incredible surprise birthday party Travis Kelce threw for Taylor Swift in Kansas City last week.
Kelce’s friend, the DJ EV, shared his own photos and videos from the celebration, showing just how big a success the night was. Kelce has previously had EV play his Kelce Jam music festival and has welcomed him to Chiefs games numerous times, hosting him in his VIP suite.
The party was themed Eras Tour, as Swift had just wrapped up her hugely successful global tour a few days before her birthday.
And the new footage shared by EV, who was at the decks that night, shows Kelce had written “End of an Era” in giant red neon letters above the DJ booth.
EV also uploaded a photo of his playlist from the night, giving fans invaluable insight into the songs Travis and Taylor danced to with their friends.
The Rolling Stones, Prince, Tame Impala and Earth Wind and Fire were all on the playlist – which, based purely on what EZ shared on social media, did not include any songs from Swift herself.

The singer reportedly thought she was having dinner with Kelce before she was surprised
Swift apparently thought she was being taken out to dinner by Kelce on the night of the party, before being surprised by all her friends for her 35th birthday.
Since then, social media has been flooded with photos from the evening – with Kelce even appearing to give a speech to his girlfriend – and it has also emerged that he enlisted the help of a party planner to ensure it was the best night possible.
The revelation came from one of Kelce’s best friends, Harry Clark, when he shared a photo from the night that showed Kelce and a mysterious blonde.
‘Madam. Make it happen Amanda Carlo,” Clark wrote with a sunglasses emoji, tagging Clark himself on Instagram.
“Thank you for organizing a great event,” he added.
Swift’s close friend Ashley Avignone revealed that the singer had no idea about the party.
In her Instagram post about the night, she said: “Thinking she was going to a small, quiet dinner, but it was actually a huge surprise party with her friends and family, props included.”
Brittany Mahomes – the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick – was the first guest to post a selection of photos from the night out.

He showed off photos of guests wearing homemade friendship bracelets — like Swift’s fans at her performances — and dressing in costumes to mark Taylor’s other album, “Eras,” as the singer did on stage.
The singer was back at Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday afternoon as Kelce and his Kansas City Chiefs team extended their winning record to 14-1.
In their final home game of the regular season, the Chiefs defeated the Houston Texans 27-19, with Kelce recording five receptions for 30 yards.
The Chiefs next play the Steelers on Christmas Day in Pittsburgh.
Swift has yet to attend a road game to cheer on Kelce and Kansas City this season and it remains to be seen if she will break the trend for the holidays.
