Taylor Swift, known for her superpower of performing for three or more hours in pouring rain, is taking no chances this time. 80,000 Australian fans will have to wait for better weather conditions to stage a huge concert on the singer’s ongoing The Eras tour.
A powerful storm hit Sydney ahead of the concert, and after lightning struck 10 kilometers from the Accor Stadium, organizers called on fans waiting to get under cover over the loudspeaker.
Please note that due to the weather, the show has been postponed, – a male voice announced. – Stay under cover until further notice and follow the instructions on the screen and the advice of the staff. Take care of yourself and remember to be respectful of others.
In pictures from social media, crowds of spectators in colorful raincoats are seen slowly making their way to the exits. Singer Sabrina Carpenter was scheduled to warm up Taylor’s appearance at 6:30 p.m., an hour before the main concert, but circumstances turned out differently.
A voice from the speakers warned those who bought a ticket that the show would definitely take place when “the storm that threatens the safety of both the audience and the artists calms down.” It should be noted that Swift takes the comfort of her fans extremely seriously, and her concerts are invariably praised for the high level of organization.
