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 E-V, has shared his own pictures and video from the celebration that have revealed just how much of a success the night was. Kelce has previously had E-V play at his Kelce Jam music festival and has welcomed him to Chiefs games numerous times, hosting him in his VIP suite.
The party was Eras Tour themed, as Swift had just finished her wildly successful global tour just a few days prior to her birthday.
And the new images shared by E-V, who was on the decks for the night, show that Kelce had ‘End of an Era’ written in giant red neon letters above the DJ booth.
E-V also uploaded a picture of his playlist from the night, giving fans some priceless insight into the songs that Travis and Taylor danced to with their friends.
The Rolling Stones, Prince, Tame Impala and Earth Wind and Fire all featured on the playlist – which, judging purely by what E-Z shared on social media – didn’t include any songs from Swift herself.
Swift apparently thought she was being taken to dinner by Kelce on the night of the party, before being surprised by all her friends for her 35th birthday.
Pictures of the night have since flooded social media – with Kelce even appearing to give a speech for his girlfriend – and it has also emerged that he enlisted the help of a party planner to make sure it was the best night possible.
The revelation came from one of Kelce’s closest friends, Harry Clark, when he shared a picture from the night that included Kelce and a mystery blonde.
‘Mrs. Make it happen Amanda Carlo,’ Clark wrote with a sunglasses emoji, tagging Clark herself on Instagram.
‘Thank you for putting together an amazing event,’ he added.
Swift’s close friend Ashley Avignone revealed that the singer had no idea about the party.
Her Instagram post reflecting on the night said: ‘When she thought she was going to a small, quiet dinner but it was actually a giant 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 snaps showed how guests wore homemade friendship bracelets – like Swift’s fans at her gigs – and dressed up in costumes to mark Taylor’s different 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 last home game of the regular season, the Chiefs beat the Houston Texans 27-19 with Kelce recording five receptions for 30 yards.
The Chiefs play next on Christmas Day in Pittsburgh against the Steelers.
