Ridgewood NJ, Taylor Swift’s highly anticipated Eras Tour shows in Vienna have been abruptly canceled following the arrest of two men over an apparent terrorist plot targeting the area where Swift’s concerts were scheduled to take place.
The news was confirmed by Austrian concert promoter Barracuda Music in a social media post on Wednesday. The statement read, “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour Vienna Shows cancelled due to government officials’ confirmation of a planned terrorist attack. 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.”
Fans who had secured tickets for the Vienna performances will receive refunds. Ticket resale platform StubHub responded swiftly, stating, “We are aware of the news regarding the upcoming canceled Taylor Swift shows in Austria. All StubHub ticket holders will be notified via email, immediately. We will provide StubHub ticket buyers with a 120 percent voucher toward another purchase, in line with our event cancellation policy and our FanProtect Guarantee. Buyers who prefer a 100 percent cash refund can make the request directly in their StubHub wallet.”
The arrests, as reported by The Associated Press, involve two suspected extremists, one of whom was allegedly planning an attack on an event in the Vienna area, with Swift’s concerts believed to be the focus. The primary suspect, a 19-year-old, was arrested in Ternitz, south of Vienna, and had reportedly pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group. The second suspect was apprehended in Vienna.
As of now, Taylor Swift has not commented on the situation or the canceled shows. The singer is currently continuing the international leg of her Eras Tour.

One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter (for good taste in music)?
They should cancel all of her shows going forward out of an abundance of caution. Please think of the children.
Hey Taylor, stop screwing around with Kelsey for two minutes and think about your liberal message to younger voters! This is coming around and biting you right in the ass! And it’s not Kelsey. This democratic party will not keep anyone safe anywhere!
Do you really think she is capable of such massive critical thinking (lol) process?
Cry in your beer when she endorses Harris/Walz.
We definitely don’t need another problem like we had in Vegas a few years back.
Why must you idiots make everything about your politics?
Oh, didn’t you hear? Everything is political.
Because THEY make it that way…………………….
Paranoid much?
