U2 sends Taylor Swift flowers ahead of her Dublin Eras Tour shows: ‘Already feeling that Irish hospitality’

So long, London — hello, Dublin!

U2 gave Taylor Swift a warm welcome upon her arrival in Ireland by sending her flowers and a card ahead of her Eras Tour shows in Dublin.

The “All Too Well” singer, 34, posted a photo of a beautiful bouquet of yellow and pink roses and a note signed by the Irish band to her Instagram Story on Friday.

“Dear Taylor, welcome back to our hometown…Leave some of it standing?!!!!” read the letter from Bono, 64, The Edge, 62, Adam Clayton, 64, and Larry Mullen Jr., 62.

The musicians referred to themselves as Swift’s “Irish fan club” before signing their names.

“Already feeling that Irish hospitality!!” Swift captioned the post. “@U2, thanks for always being the classiest & coolest.”

The “With Or Without You” artists returned the appreciation by re-posting Swift’s photo to their own Instagram Story.

The band formed in 1976 when the members were teenage students at Mount Temple Comprehensive School in Dublin.

Bono has been open about his love for Swift’s music and admitted to being a “Swiftie” during an appearance with the singer on the “Graham Norton Show” in 2022.

When Nortan asked if Bono and Swift had ever worked together, Swift replied, “Not yet. We’re gonna talk about it later.”

Swift is set to take the stage at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Paramore will be opening for the “Anti-Hero” vocalist.

From there, Swift will travel to Amsterdam and Zürich before making her way to Italy for a few performances in Milan.

It’s unclear if her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, will be present at her Dublin shows.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end attended all three of Swift’s concerts in London last week, where other celebrities in the audience included Tom Cruise, Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, Hugh Grant, “Barbie” director Greta Gerwig, Salma Hayek and Foo Fighters’ member Pat Smear.

Swift surprised the audience by bringing the “New Heights” podcast host on stage during her last show at Wembley Stadium.
