Swifties Unite in Vienna: How Fans Celebrated After ‘Eras Tour’ Concerts Were Cancelled

Taylor Swift‘s The Eras Tour shows in Vienna, scheduled for Aug. 8, 9, and 10 may be cancelled, but it hasn’t dampened the spirit of Swifties in Vienna, who have transformed the city into a celebration of Taylor’s music and community.

The cancellation came after Austrian authorities arrested two suspects on Aug. 7, who were reportedly planning an attack on the concerts. According to police reports, the suspects had radicalized online and intended to carry out an attack at the Ernst Happel Stadium, where the shows were set to take place.

The decision to cancel the concerts was made in coordination with Swift’s management and local authorities, with the safety of the expected 65,000 concertgoers each night being the top priority.

In the wake of the cancellations, fans in Vienna took to the streets on Aug. 8 to make the most of their time in the city and meet fellow fans.

"But Daddy I love him" live from Cornelia Street (Corneliusgasse) in #Vienna tonight.

Loved the vibe, traded bracelets and sung my heart out. This is one of the most wholesome fan communities out there
