Taylor Swift‘s Eras Tour concerts scheduled for tomorrow (Aug. 8), Friday and Saturday at Vienna’s Ernst Happel Stadium have been canceled after government officials thwarted a planned terrorist attack at the events. Per Austrian promoter Barracuda Music, “all tickets will be automatically refunded within the next 10 business days.”
According to NBC News, two men were arrested in Austria today for plotting an attack at one of the Swift concerts and other major events in Austria. Both were radicalized online, and one, a 19-year-old who pledged allegiance to the ISIS terrorist organization was allegedly found with suspicious chemical substances upon his arrest.
