Taylor Swift is giving fans more music from The Life of a Showgirl era.

The singer announced Wednesday that The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore will arrive Friday, September 25, featuring four brand-new songs. The announcement comes just one day after Swift revealed that her new single, “Patient Zero,” would also be released September 25.

What's On 'The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore'?

The expanded release will add four songs to the original 12-track album, bringing the total to 16 tracks.

The new songs are:

  • “Patient Zero”
  • “Cleveland!”
  • “Pink Clouding”
  • “Babylon”

Swift explained that the songs came together after she traveled to Sweden to celebrate the success of The Life of a Showgirl with collaborators Max Martin and Shellback.

Rather than simply celebrating the album, the group ended up back in the studio and wrote more music.

Swift said the new songs were created out of gratitude for the response fans gave the original album.

When Does 'The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore' Come Out?

The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore is scheduled to be released on Friday, September 25, 2026.

The announcement follows a busy week for Swift. She also revealed “Patient Zero” as a new single, with the song arriving the same day as the expanded album.

Swift is also set to receive the inaugural Artist Director Award at the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards on September 27.

For fans who thought The Life of a Showgirl era was wrapping up, it looks like there's still an encore to come.
