At which ceremony did Taylor Swift first perform “august” live in a medley with “cardigan” and “willow”?

Taylor Swift first performed “august” live in a medley with “cardigan” and “willow” at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards.

The ceremony took place on March 14, 2021. Swift began the performance with “cardigan,” then sang “august” inside a cottage while playing guitar, before moving outside for “willow.” Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner accompanied her, making it the first time the three performed together.

The performance is sometimes confused with the Eras Tour because “august” later appeared in the Folklore section of that tour’s set list. The Grammy performance came earlier and was a single medley linking songs from Folklore and Evermore.
