Over a million fans poured their love for Taylor Swift, packing the Melbourne Cricket Grounds stadium to the brim on the first night of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, where they danced and sang their hearts out in unison.

 

More than 1 million  fans packed the Melbourne Cricket Grounds stadium to dance and sing their hearts out to night one of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.The weather could not have been any nicer for the city that reached the upper 90s on Tuesday. The cool down for the weekend left fans walking into the stadium to the beat of mid-70s.

 

 

Although the pop star has performed in the Australian city 10 times, this is her first time inside the Cricket Grounds. The open roof allowed the 10 eras of hits and thunderous crowd applause to spill from the vast arena into the downtown area. Restaurants and shops in the center of Melbourne have been playing hits by Swift from their storefronts all week. Finders Station, the train hub, also projected lights welcoming Miss Americana to Down Under.

 

You could not miss Zoe Lin’s voice outside the arena. The Taiwanese Swiftie spent weeks making more than 300 custom friendship bracelets. “Does anyone want to trade friendship bracelets?” she shouted.

 

 

Lin held up a Ziploc bag with beads of every color and a laminated sign that quoted Swift’s song “You’re On Your Own, Kid”: “So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it.

 

The other side said, “Hey Taylor, Can you tell me now, I’m the ‘Lucky One,’ Swiftie from Taiwan.” Lin hoped the sign would be seen by Swift’s team so she could become the “22” hat recipient. She didn’t make it, but the sign was as fun as her fan spirit.
