Taylor Swift breaks concert crowd record in Stockholm with Eras Tour
View Date:2024-12-23 23:35:41
STOCKHOLM — Taylor Swift played her very first show in Sweden and said fans broke the concert attendance record at Friends Arena.
"My mind is absolutely blown for several reasons looking at this crowd tonight," said the Eras Tour star.
"First of which is that I have never gotten to play a show in Stockholm before, and my first show looks like this." The crowd erupted and Swift added, "You have made this the highest attended show ever in this stadium."
Swift didn't say how many fans were there, but the stadium's website says its concert capacity is "60,000 people, depending on position and layout of the stage."
Fans did not spot Swift's boyfriend, Travis Kelce, in the crowd after the tight end went to her final show in Paris, which was her 87th Eras Tour performance (his Kansas City Chiefs number is 87). The football player is hosting a music festival, Kelce Jam, Saturday night in Bonner Springs, Kansas.

The city of Stockholm is the latest stop on her blockbuster three-plus-hour show to rename itself — to Swiftholm —following Glendale's "Swift City," Minneapolis's "Swiftie-apolis" and Santa Clara's "Swiftie Clara."
Swift will perform three nights in Friends Arena before heading to Lisbon, Portugal.
