If her past decisions are any indication, we know the answer. And it’s a no.
Swift, who just finished up her two-year Eras Tour, which made more than $1 billion, has mostly stayed away from road games since dating Kelce. She attended a couple of them last year, going to games in New York City and Buffalo, but she didn’t have the best experience during the Chiefs at Bills AFC Divisional Round Game.
Adam Lefkoe, a friend of the Kelce family, spoke to Kay Adams on the “Up & Adams” show earlier this year, detailing how Swift was “shocked” by Buffalo’s behavior.
“I have heard from people very close that it was not a great experience in Buffalo. It was not. For all parties involved. And I’m talking about the most famous of all the parties,” Lefkoe said. “I think that it kind of shocked the Kelce family and everyone related to the Kelce family the reception they got.”
“I think they were kind of going in being like, ‘This is going to be an amazing game with good energy.’ And they got there and they experienced Bills Mafia in full form, in its complete ruthlessness.”
“And I think they left and went, ‘I don’t know if I want to experience that again.'”

Swift and her team reportedly have understandable security concerns about games on the road. Arrowhead Stadium has become friendly confines at this point. But there’s much more uncertainty at stadiums on the road.
“She’s not going anywhere unless she knows the venue intimately and it has been thoroughly scouted and secured in advance,” a source close to Swift said earlier this year.
Travis Kelce , 35, is excited to play on Christmas Day.
“I’ll play whenever, wherever. I just know that I’m so fortunate to be able to play this game that I’m gonna cherish every time I get to play on this field,” he said on his “New Heights” podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce, earlier this week.
For the Chiefs, it’s their third game in 11 days. Patrick Mahomes spoke about how grueling that is for the team.
“All you can do is focus on the game and the practice that you had that day,” Mahomes said. “I try to prepare my body all year long for this stretch by tailoring my workouts, tailoring how you practice and you prepare. The coaches do a great job of taking care of us on the practice field. We practice hard as anybody, but they know how to kind of dial it back when we need it.
“It is not a good feeling. I’m excited to play on Christmas to hopefully get back from what we did last year [when the Chiefs lost on the holiday to the Las Vegas Raiders ], but you never want to play this many games in this short of time. It’s just not great for your body. But at the end of the day, it’s your job, your profession. You have to come to work and do it.”
The Chiefs and the Steelers are scheduled to kick off at 1 p.m. E.T. on Wednesday.
The game will air on Netflix.
