23 games, 13 concerts: Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s relationship by the numbers

If there’s one thing we know about Swifties, it’s that they love to dig into the numbers.

For them, “13” has an almost mythical significance, and every number Taylor Swift said in a recent “New Heights” appearance was dissected to form a theory about the 2026 Super Bowl.

And now that she is engaged to Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce — announced Aug. 26, 2025, which is already the subject of new theories — surely the numbers from their two-year relationship will come under a whole new level of scrutiny.

Here are some of the key facts dating back to Kansas City’s Eras Tour stop on July 8, 2023.

How many Chiefs games has Taylor Swift gone to?
