Yes, Swifties Actually Created an Earthquake During an L.A. 'Eras' Show


A study by Caltech and UCLA reveals there was an earthquake caused by fans during one of Taylor Swift's ‘Eras’ concerts in Los Angeles

Tepp and her team’s findings were disclosed in a report earlier this month titled “Shake to the Beat: Exploring the Seismic Signals and Stadium Response of Concerts and Music Fans.” In the study, it was revealed that when Swift, 34, performed at SoFi Stadium in August 2023 — she brought her record-breaking Eras Tour to L.A. for six nights — 70,000 Swifties jumped and danced around so much in the audience that they created seismic activity and generated “distinct harmonic tremors.” The L.A. show wasn’t the first time the Grammy winner caused what’s become known as a “Swift-quake.” Her July 2023 stops at Seattle’s Lumen Field was similarly stated to have resulted in seismic activity, according to CNN, creating an “equivalent of a 2.3 magnitude earthquake.”
