Several Illinois Target stores will be among those staying open for the midnight release of Taylor Swift’s new album, “The Life of a Showgirl.”
Swift announced the album in August and it’s coming out Friday, and some stores are enticing fans by staying home late Thursday evening so fans can make their purchases just after the clock strikes midnight.
Target has some exclusive album items, and shoppers can preorder many of them ahead of the launch. The deadline to place preorders is 11:59 p.m. central time Wednesday, Oct. 1 and it will be shipped Friday, Oct. 3.
What merch is available?
Target is offering an exclusive vinyl version of “The Life of a Showgirl: The Crowd is Your King” edition that will go for $34.99 and “features an opaque pink and pale-yellow pearlescent vinyl with gold shimmer, a collectible custom gatefold sleeve, a giant double-sided poster, a poem written by Taylor herself, and never-before-seen photos and album lyrics,” according to a Target news release.
Pre-orders for the vinyl are sold out and it will only be available in stores beginning Oct. 3, according to the Target website.
Three CD editions, “It’s Beautiful,” “It’s Frightening” and “It’s Rapturous,” are Target exclusives available for pre-order online. The CDs go for $14.99.
