Taylor Swift returns to London today (Thursday August 15) to kick off a five-night run at Wembley Stadium “ check out the timings for the concerts below.
The pop star will round off the UK and European leg of her ongoing ‘Eras Tour’ in the capital over the coming days, having played three shows at Wembley in June. Paramore are once again joining her as the main support act.
Earlier this month, Swift announced additional openers for her London gigs: Sofia Isella (August 15), Holly Humberstone (16), Suki Waterhouse (17), Maisie Peters (19) and Raye (20).
The Met Police confirmed last week that the singer’s Wembley shows would not be impacted by the foiled terror attack plot at one of her concerts in Vienna “ which resulted in all three of her scheduled dates in the Austrian capital being cancelled.
However, Swift s stage times in London have been tweaked recently in the wake of the incident. Wembley Stadium has also issued a statement warning ticketless fans that they cannot stand outside the venue while the concert is taking place “ a trend known as ˜Tay-gating .

Suki Waterhouse recently said she had “manifested” her upcoming support slot on Swift’s second run of Wembley dates this summer.
In a five-star review of Swift’s UK ˜Eras Tour opener in Edinburgh, NME wrote: Despite being an arena show, in a huge, cavernous venue, Swift and her fans have managed to cultivate a community.
Strangers swap friendship bracelets, laugh and cry together, and embrace the tour s in-jokes and lore (for example shouting one, two, three, let s go bitch during ˜Delicate ). It s the power of Swift, an artist who s inspired not only the renaming of a Scottish Loch, but also countless fans to come out and embrace being a part of the Eras family.
With the ˜Eras Tour , then, Swift s managed to craft a marvel of a show that comes with a beating heart.
Following this month’s London shows, Swift will head back to North America this autumn and end her mammoth ‘Eras Tour’ in Vancouver, Canada in early December.
“This has definitely been the most exhausting, all-encompassing but most joyful, most rewarding, most wonderful thing that has ever wondered in my life, this tour,” Swift told the crowd as she marked her 100th ‘Eras Tour’ show in Liverpool in June.
In other news, the lawyer representing the main suspect in the alleged Vienna concert terror plot has claimed that the accusations against their client have been exaggerated.
A third suspect was arrested by police last week after allegedly being in contact with the main suspect. Swift has not yet commented on the incident.
