Vienna’s Ernst Happel Stadium, where up to 65,000 Taylor Swift fans had been expected, sat empty last night - aside from media filming outside.
Three sold-out concerts in Vienna, part of Swift's Eras Tour show, were cancelled by organizers after officials announced arrests over an ISIS-connected terrorist plot. But even if the Swifties’ dreams of watching her perform live were abruptly dashed because of the terrorist attack, that didn’t stop them from coming together and celebrating their beloved TayTay.
Police kept a watchful eye as hundreds of fans gathered and sang her songs in the Austrian capital yesterday. Corneliusgasse — a small street just 5 kilometers from the stadium — was filled with fans singing, trading friendship bracelets and commiserating about the cancellations.
The beaded bracelets, typically bearing Swift’s song titles or popular phrases, are usually swapped at concerts with strangers.
One police officer had his uniform decorated with bracelets.
As it started to rain, some of the fans dispersed, perhaps to be reunited another day...
