Jacksonville, Florida – Travis Kelce celebrated his 36th birthday on October 5, 2025, surrounded by family at the premiere of his fiancée Taylor Swift’s latest film. The event took place in Jacksonville, where Kelce was preparing for a Monday Night Football game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was accompanied by his mother, Donna Kelce, and his aunt and uncle for the special occasion.
The film, titled “Taylor Swift: The Official Release Party of a Showgirl”, features a collection of music videos and behind-the-scenes footage and was shown in theaters for three days, coinciding with the release of Swift’s 12th album, “Life of a Showgirl.” The theatrical release achieved impressive ticket sales, grossing $33 million across U.S. theaters.
In a show of support for Swift, the Kelce family donned outfits matching the album’s cover colors of orange and teal, accessorizing with feathered fans and teal feather boas. Fans on social media expressed their joy for Kelce and Swift’s relationship, applauding Donna Kelce for her enthusiastic participation and stylish attire. While some fans speculated about potential awkwardness during some of Swift’s more risqué songs, it was noted that only clean versions were screened during the film.
Taylor Swift was scheduled to appear on “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon” on October 6, coinciding with the Chiefs vs. Jaguars game, which made her attendance at the birthday celebration unlikely. This year marks the first birthday that Kelce has celebrated with Swift since their engagement in late August.
Travis Kelce has a history of supporting his family’s film projects, including attending his mother’s Hallmark movies. Swift had been seen at some of the Chiefs’ games during the previous season but had maintained a lower profile in recent weeks. As the Chiefs entered the matchup against the Jaguars, they held a 2-2 record after reaching the Super Bowl in the last three seasons.
Leading into his birthday celebration, Kelce has experienced a dip in performance during the current NFL season, with statistics showing 22 targets, 15 catches, 182 yards, and one touchdown across the first four games.
As Travis Kelce celebrated his 36th birthday with family and his fiancée’s film premiere, he prepared to face the Jacksonville Jaguars the following day, looking to improve the Chiefs’ record and regain his top performance on the field.
