The 14-time Grammy winner stunned in a black mini dress, black coat and Louis Vuitton platform heels, while the Kansas City Chiefs star, 35, wore a red denim set and white T-shirt.
The couple also stepped out for a double date with pals Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley at BondST restaurant in midtown on Friday.
An insider told Page Six that Kelce and Swift are expected to enjoy each other’s company in NYC throughout the weekend since the NFL star doesn’t have to attend practice until Monday.

The Chiefs next game against the Denver Broncos is on Jan. 5.
Swift, meanwhile, has a lot more time on her hands since wrapping up her record-breaking Eras Tour earlier this month.
We were told that the hitmaker was feeling “burnt out” after touring for a year and a half and was “definitely looking forward to some downtime.”

Another source told Page Six that the “Cruel Summer” singer was preparing to settle into her WAG era and plans to reside primarily in Tennessee.
“It looks like this may be Taylor’s domestic era,” an insider told us last week. “It also looks like Taylor is going to make Nashville more of a home base than LA or NY since it’s closer to Kansas City, and her mom, Andrea, loves [Nashville], too.”
Swift and Kelce quietly started dating in the summer of 2023 and went public with their romance at a Chiefs game that September.
