A first "sorry" ...
Swift says sorry: ORF surprisingly shows concert
Until now, Taylor Swift has remained silent about the cancellation of her concerts in Vienna. But now there is finally a first reaction - at least an indirect one. With her permission, ORF is the only free TV station in the world to broadcast a concert by the megastar for the disappointed fans this Saturday evening.
The pain of hundreds of thousands of Taylor Swift fans runs deep: just one day before her first performance in Vienna's Ernst Happel Stadium, all three concerts were canceled by the organizer due to plans for an attack. The megastar has been absent from the media since Wednesday.
ORF shows Swift concert!
But now there is finally a first reaction from the singer - and a big sorry and thank you to her loyal Austria fans!
ORF has pulled off a real coup. ORF is the only free TV channel in the world to show a concert of The Eras Tour this Saturday evening. It can be seen at 9.45 pm on ORF1.
Terrorist attack foiled
A 19-year-old Austrian was arrested on Wednesday in Ternitz, Lower Austria, for planning a terrorist attack. Another arrest was made a short time later in Vienna - the suspect is only 17 years old. A 15-year-old Austrian was also stopped by the authorities.
On Friday, the next suspected terror teenager (18) was arrested. The detainees are suspected of planning an attack on one of the Swift concerts in Vienna (Thursday or Friday).
65,000 visitors were expected at each concert in the Ernst Happel Stadium, as well as around 20,000 fans outside the arena. The so-called Swifties - Swift's really big fans - had traveled from all over the world to witness the spectacle. One father and his daughter even came from a war zone in the Middle East for the concert.
Fans didn't let it get them down
Despite the disappointment of the canceled concerts in Vienna, the fans didn't let the last few days get them down. Countless people gathered in Corneliusgasse in Vienna-Mariahilf on Thursday to exchange friendship bracelets and sing together.
Vienna's city center also filled up quickly. Swifties held their own little concert on Stephansplatz - including the odd marriage proposal.
