Bad news for local Swifties: Taylor Swift announced her “Eras” tour in support of her newest album “Midnights” on Tuesday morning, and it doesn’t include a stop in Portland or anywhere in the state of Oregon.

Why are you doing this to us, Taylor? Is it because Duke’s Bar and Grill, the location of your life-changing 2006 Halloween show, has closed?

Still, Swift fans of Oregon, don’t despair! We are sandwiched between two states that Swift is visiting, and we have a world-class airport that can send you even further!

So, what’s your best bet for seeing Swift get bejeweled in person?

Ask yourself a few questions first. Who do you want to see Swift perform with? Haim? Phoebe Bridgers? Beabadoobee?

And, which do you like better, trains or planes?

If you answered Haim and/or trains, lucky you -- Swift is playing Lumen Field in Seattle, with Haim and Gracie Abrams, on Saturday, July 22, at 6:30 p.m. and tickets go on sale on Tuesday, Nov. 15, at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster.

Haim will also be joining Swift during her three California dates: Saturday, July 29, at 6:30 p.m. at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Saturday, Aug. 5, at 6:30 p.m. at SoFi Stadium, Inglewood and at Friday, Aug. 4, at 6:30 p.m. at SoFi Stadium, Inglewood.

Tickets to all three of those shows go on sale on Tuesday, Nov. 15, at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster.

Are you impatient and do you like Beabadoobee? Try Las Vegas, where Swift is playing Allegiant Stadium on Saturday, March 25, at 6:30 p.m. Tickets to that show, with Paramore and Gayle, go on sale on Tuesday, Nov. 15, at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster as well.

If you want to see Swift and Bridgers, well, you’ll have to head east. That dynamic duo will play Nashville and Philadelphia, as well as shows in Massachusetts and New Jersey.

You can also find resale tickets to all the shows on her tour through VividSeats, SeatGeek or StubHub.

Time to start bejeweling a corset!
