The city of Glendale, Arizona , is changing its name in honor of Taylor Swift ahead of her impending arrival.

The sudden rebrand as Swift City will coincide with the superstars sold-out performances kicking off her Eras Tour on Friday and Saturday, according to AZ Central . The change, which is temporary and purely symbolic, was announced by the mayor of the 248,000-population city at a news conference on Monday.

Mayor Jerry P. Weiers, on behalf of the city council, proclaimed that on Friday and Saturday, the city of Glendale will be renamed Swift City, he said before making cheeky nods to Swifts lyrics .

And all Swifties are encouraged to share their smiles that could light up this whole town on all social media platforms because the best people in life are free, continued Weiers, in references to You Belong With Me and New Romantics.

Swift will perform back-to-back shows at Glendales State Farm Arena before heading to Las Vegas, the next stop on her tour. Her website says every Eras Tour location includes multiple shows.
