Taylor Swift Parties with Travis Kelce After Tight End University in Nashville
I’m sure you’re struggling to keep up, so here’s what really went down: on June 23, Taylor Swift made a surprise appearance at a Nashville bar right after Travis Kelce’s annual Tight End University training event—and yes, she brought her A-game. You probably should already know that Kelce hosts this “university” for top NFL tight ends to train, bond, and—if we’re honest—show off a little. This year’s gathering landed in Music City, and Swift decided it was high time she witnessed the post-workout celebrations firsthand.
Once the sun set on the drills at Nissan Stadium grounds, Swift arrived in a green gingham two-piece skirt set, effortlessly contrasting Kelce’s casual white knit polo and matching shorts. Eyewitness photos and videos (courtesy of E! Online’s coverage) show them grinning like they just scored a touchdown. DJ Mike Fresh couldn’t resist sharing his disbelief on Instagram, captioning a Story, “She’s here. Am in disbelief,” the same man who spun Taylor’s “Love Story” amid cheers. He later raved on video about those “Monday fun days” when the Tight End University crew meets up with the pop star—apparently a tradition worth Instagram bragging rights.
In typical Swift fashion, she didn’t just dip in and out. She hung around long enough to snap selfies with fellow partygoers, sparking tears from starstruck fans when word spread that “Taylor Swift’s in the building.” Mike Fresh, overheard on a follow-up clip, praised the couple’s down-to-earth vibe, admitting he “never knows what’s gonna happen in Nashville,” but clearly thrilled that this night turned into a bona fide celebration.
And hold on, because your comprehension test isn’t over. A few days earlier, the duo squeezed in a cozy NYC date night, captured on video as Travis respectfully shook a server’s hand before escorting Taylor to their car. Before that, Florida saw them dine in Palm Beach during Kelce’s training, and Swift even made a heartfelt pit stop at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital in Hollywood, Florida—telling young patients, “My boyfriend is training here. So I just thought I’d drop in on you.”
Need a mini history lesson? Their love story kicked off in July 2023 when Kelce—ever the devoted Swiftie—tried (and failed) to hand her a friendship bracelet at Arrowhead Stadium. Undeterred, he later invited her to the Chiefs game, laying it all on the line on The Pat McAfee Show. Spoiler alert: it worked.
See? It isn’t rocket science—you just needed this guide to spell it out. Glad I could clear that up for you.
