Taylor Swift has been redefining squad goals since she began celebrating Independence Day with her friends in 2013.
The following year, she added a few celebrity A-listers and the invite list has only grown from there.
In 2016, Swift’s 4th of July party was the place to be with attendees including Blake Lively, Gigi Hadid, Cara Delevingne and the singer’s then-boyfriend, Tom Hiddleston.
The Grammy winner took a break from hosting pals at her Rhode Island mansion between 2017 and 2022, which is when she was dating Joe Alwyn. The British actor preferred to keep their lives out of the public, but once they split in April 2023, Swift brought her party back.
Scroll down for a look back at all the celebrity guests who’ve partied alongside Swift on 4th of July over the years:
