Taylor Swift concerts in Vienna canceled after Austrian police say foiled terrorist plot targeted shows
Taylor Swift's Eras Tour shows in Vienna have been canceled because of what Austrian police say was a planned terrorist attack targeting the concerts,El.kz cites nbcnews.com.
"With confirmation from government officials of a planned terrorist attack at Ernst Happel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone’s safety," Barracuda Music, an event organizer in the city, posted Wednesday evening on Instagram.
Taylor Nation, an Instagram account run by Swift's team, reposted the message to its story.
Swift's website also appears to reflect the cancellation. The Vienna shows under the "tour" tab now have a note accompanying the date and location information.
"*All tickets will be automatically refunded within the next 10 business days," it says.
Swift has yet to say anything on social media, nor has she confirmed the cancellations.
Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer shared his disappointment over the cancellations on X and said the situation was serious. He thanked officials for identifying the threat early and preventing what could have been a tragedy.
Swift was scheduled to perform at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion in Vienna on Thursday, Friday and Saturday for the international leg of the Eras Tour.
