Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is going on strong as her next stop Minneapolis temporarily changed the city name to Swiftie-apolis

"We are embarking on what will be one of the most exciting weekends in the city of Minneapolis," said Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey in a presser.

"With Pride plus Taylor Swift, we are expecting more than half a million people… it's better than our wildest dreams."

According to Billboard, the city is expected to receive a massive influx of revenue after the Carolina singer's two-sold out concerts in her super-hit Eras tour sparked a steep price rise in the hotels as visitors are set to flock to U.S. Bank Stadium, where Swift will perform.

"We are renaming Minneapolis to 'Swiftie-apolis' – as a singer, songwriter, performer, and producer, Taylor is one of the most popular artists, and we're expecting hundreds of thousands to visit our downtown and experience our city as a result," said Frey.

Earlier, Swift earned praise as she made a generous donation, providing 125,000 meals for food bank users in Tampa Bay, Florida, on Eras Tour.

The Anti-Hero singer completed her three night-set at the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, and food bank Feeding Tampa Bay has hailed Swift a "hero" for helping them feed food-insecure people.

The Feeding Tampa Bay, a non-profit organization, tweeted, "Thank you @taylorswift for being a HERO and supporting Feeding Tampa Bay's mission to end hunger by 2025!"
