Taylor Swift in Edinburgh Night Two: Weather, times, traffic, travel updates live
Are you ready for it? Again? Night two is upon us.
The Eras Tour broke records on Friday night with the largest crowd for a stadium concert in the country, and tonight is going to be just as packed.
To keep up to date with weather, traffic, travel and terrible Taylor Swift puns, follow along with our live blog below.
Taylor Swift in Edinburgh Night Two Live
Enjoy the rest of the show, everyone
All the staff here at Scotsman towers (and indeed at Murrayfield with you) hope you have the best time tonight. For now, we’re signing off. Catch you tomorrow.
Last night's best pictures
The pop superstar played the first of three sell-out shows on Friday evening
Low key one of our favourite parts of this weekend? Scotrail
Honestly, the ScotRail social media team and staff across the network have smashed it out the park with their fan engagement
The most impressive thing?
I went to the Eras Tour and the only thing more impressive than Taylor Swift was her Swifties
After a frantic 24-hours involving last minute travel plans, packing and not enough sleep, it finally sunk in that I was seeing Taylor Swift only as she started to sing.
That’s when I started to cry. Rather predictable.
I’ve been a fan of Taylor Swift for years and hadn’t thought I would be able to see the Eras Tour live. Even so, I’ve never had quite that reaction at a concert before – especially one that’s been plastered all over my social media feeds for more than a year now.
But none of that mattered there in that moment as the crowd enthusiastically screamed along to Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince.
The atmosphere felt electric and at times I had to stop singing just to take in the sheer volume of the audience – something which Taylor also had to do.
What did I learn?
After an incredible night seeing Taylor Swift at Murrayfield, here’s what I learned from the experience.
Our very own Swiftie has officially entered the stadium.
Meanwhile, over on Taylor Nation’s social media, fans are sharing their best outfits - much like how we caught up with some Swifties yesterday.
Rachel, who was blogging for us earlier, is en-route to Taylor Swift - just as doors open for tonight’s show.
There was a lot going on last night, but did anyone see this?
Including the trams, the monkeys being named after her and the bagpipe welcome wagon, what are people’s thoughts on Edinburgh rolling out the welcome wagon for Taylor Swift?
I found a video of the couple who got engaged last night!
Huge congratulations to them and if anyone knows who they are pass on that someone captured it on video!
Seeing Taylor Swift in hindsight
As I might have mentioned, I SAW TAYLOR SWIFT YESTERDAY!
I will absolutely be annoying everyone in my life with this fact for the next year or so.
I still don’t feel like I’ve processed the experience and despite the very real pain in my feel it feels like something from my “Wildest Dreams”.
But with two more shows still to go, and MANY more excited Swifties readying themselves, I wanted to help out.
So, here are my top survival tips for the Eras Tour.
Number one is to wear comfortable shoes. I cannot emphasise this enough.
If you're driving...
Attempting to get to Murrayfield by car? Good luck.
There are a lot of road closures in place around the stadium and with so many people heading to see Taylor Swift - more than 72,000 to be exact - parking will be scarce.
Most of you will have planned your route and parking in advance, but just in case...
We have what you need to know about road closures for Taylor Swift here, and what we know about the parking situation - and where the drop off and pick up zones are - here.
How to get to Murrayfield using public transport
A small reminder for those heading to the show using public transport; even with extra services running to meet demand, it will be busy.
This is what it looked like from the top of the Murrayfield tram stop steps yesterday:
