Terrorists Threatened a Taylor Swift Concert. Here’s How the Swifties Fought Back


Taylor Swift fans who planned to attend the Eras tour in Vienna are coming together after three shows were cancelled following a planned terror plot.

It’s been dubbed a version of New York’s Cornelia Street — a staple location in the Swift-ian Universe — and quickly became a must-visit spot for both native and visiting fans, stopping in to leave and pick up bracelets. Swifties were hoping to be singing, dancing, and trading friendship bracelets just a few miles away at Ernst Happel Stadium — but all three Eras tour performances scheduled in the city were canceled after authorities arrested two Austrian teenagers accused of planning to execute a terror attack at the venue. Then two young, hateful adults come and decide to attack our values that this community has been building up for decades: the freedom to be who we want to be, the confidence to fight for the rights of women, queer people, and minorities in general,” says Tobias Euler-Rolle, 23, who also gathered at Corneliusgasse earlier today.
