BERLIN >> Taylor Swift’s three concerts in Vienna this week were canceled after government confirmation of a planned attack at the stadium, the organizer said late today.

“With confirmation from government officials of a planned terrorist attack at Ernst Happel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone’s safety,” Barracuda.music said in a post on Instagram, adding all tickets would be automatically refunded.

Austrian police today detained two people suspected of plotting attacks on concerts, Franz Ruf, director general for public security, said at a news conference this evening.

“During our investigations, we identified preparatory actions and noted that the 19-year-old suspect had a particular focus on the Taylor Swift concerts in Vienna,” Ruf said, adding that the suspect, an Austrian citizen, had pledged allegiance to the Islamic state.

Police searched the residence of one of the suspects in Ternitz, Lower Austria, and were analyzing items from the home.

Three Taylor Swift concerts were scheduled to take place In Vienna from Thursday to Saturday with police expecting around 65,000 attendees each day.

They are part of the record-breaking Eras Tour by the American singer-songwriter which started on March 17, 2023, in Glendale, Arizona, U.S., and is set to conclude on Dec. 8, 2024, in Vancouver, Canada.

Swift, 34, has been taking Europe by storm, prompting some pundits to envisage an economic windfall as fans flock to dozens of sold-out shows from Dublin to Vienna and beyond.

After Vienna, Swift is set to sing in London where six concerts are scheduled at Wembley Stadium, starting on Aug. 15.
