Taylor Swift is in her married era.
In fact, the “Opalite” singer skipped the weekend-long 2026 Creative Arts Emmys in Los Angeles—where her The Eras Tour: The Final Show concert film was up for five awards—for a night out with her husband Travis Kelce on the East Coast.
On Sept. 6, the couple had a group dinner at Ambassadors Clubhouse New York, an Indian restaurant located in the NoMad neighborhood of New York City, a source tells E! News.
The insider says Swift and Kelce, both 36, sat in the ground floor dining room as they enjoyed an assortment of “classic cocktails and dishes” inspired by Northern Indian cuisine.
Swift was spotted in a long gold-and-brown halter dress, while the source tells E! that Kelce kept it 100 in chinos, a short sleeve top and checkered Vans.
The pair—who got married in N.Y.C. two months ago—appear to be enjoying some down time after Kelce finished summer training camp with the Kansas City Chiefs in August before the team hits the field for their first NFL game of the season on Sept. 14, the same night the 2026 Emmy Awards air on NBC and Peacock.

But though Swift’s concert film didn’t take home a trophy in any of the five categories it was nominated in over the weekend, being recognized by the Television Academy is something the “Life of a Showgirl” artist knows all too well.
After all, she won her first Emmy back in 2015 for AMEX Unstaged: Taylor Swift Experience in the Outstanding Creative Achievement in Interactive Media category. The experience consisted of a 360-degree mobile app that gave Swifites the opportunity to virtually step inside the mansion from the “Blank Space” music video, alongside other behind-the-scenes features.
With Swift’s 2015 Emmy win, she officially became halfway to reaching EGOT status and still needs an Oscar and a Tony to complete the squad.

In the years since, she created something only a mastermind could: the Eras Tour, with Swift praising The Eras Tour: The Final Show director Glenn Weiss for how she captured the once-in-a-lifetime experience.
“One of the things that I was so impressed by, and the needle Glenn threaded so effortlessly, is that the Eras Tour was such a phenomenon because of so many factors,” she told the crowd at a pre-Emmy event, according to Deadline, “but one that I know that is really important is that it was a source of great escapism for the people who were there.”
