Travis Kelce DJs Taylor Swift music during surprise 'Tight Ends & Friends' appearance for Super Bowl Week 2026

Travis Kelce made a surprise appearance at the “Tight Ends & Friends” party in San Francisco, Calif., Thursday night, and although his fiancée, Taylor Swift, did not attend the bash in person, the NFL star made sure she was there in spirit.

Late into the party — hosted by Sports Illustrated and Tight End University (TEU) — Kelce hopped behind the DJ booth to play some tunes with Andrew Fedyk and Joe De Pace of Loud Luxury, who were headlining the event at Public Works.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end then put on a pair of headphones as the crowd went wild over the song that came next: Swift’s “The Fate of Ophelia,” off her latest album, “The Life of a Showgirl.”

Page Six witnessed Kelce scratching the turntable for an epic remixed version of the hit track. As it got to the chorus, he even broke out the viral choreography from Swift’s music video.

Just a few moments later, Loud Luxury mixed Rihanna’s “We Found Love” with Swift’s “You Belong With Me.” A beaming Kelce took out his cell phone to film himself dancing and singing along with partygoers.

The three-time Super Bowl champion appeared to be having a blast at the fête from the moment he arrived — straight from the 2026 NFL Honors, which were held earlier on Thursday.

When he wasn’t DJ’ing, we spotted Kelce in a special VIP area, mingling with various celebs and athletes, including his Tight End University co-founder George Kittle, who helped host the bash during Big Game Weekend.

Other famous faces we spotted Thursday night included Camille Kostek, Adam Devine, Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia, Claire Kittle, Naomie Olindo, Billy Haire and Kristin and Kyle Juszczyk.

SI and TEU’s pre-Super Bowl bash kicked off just one night after Travis and his brother, Jason Kelce, hosted their “New Heights” podcast party.

Eagle-eyed fans spotted a framed picture of the singer hanging on the wall in pics and videos taken from the intimate event — once again making her presence known in the Bay Area.

Swift and Kelce, both 36, have been going strong ever since they went public with their romance in September 2023. They became engaged in August 2025 and are set to tie the knot this summer.
