Edinburgh City Council ask people to plan ahead

As Murrayfield is situated in a residential area, concert goers have been asked to plan ahead.

There will be no parking available at Murrayfield and the Roseburn Park area will be very busy. Roads have been closed to help keep boy Taylor Swift ticket holders and residents safe.

Fans have also been asked to be mindful of local residents while travelling to and from the venue.
