Watching the Eras Tour for free, thousands of Swifties ‘Taylor-gate’ in Munich, Germany

Thousands of Taylor Swift fans in Munich, Germany are watching the Eras Tour for free.

Swifties set up shop Saturday morning on Olympia Berg Hill, a grassy overlook southeast of the stadium — with a direct, bird’s eye vantage of the performances. Known as “Taylor-gating,” fans brought umbrellas and blankets to watch the entire show without paying hundreds of dollars for a bejeweled pass.

Different from other stadiums, the 200 foot hill towers over the entire arena giving Swifties, who didn’t get tickets, the opportunity to see a minuscule perspective of the production of the three plus hour show. X/Twitter videos showed every piece of grass covered.

According to the Olympiapark website, “From the very top, there is a magnificent view of the Olympic Park, Munich and the Alps. For decades, however, the Olympic Hill has also been a popular destination for enjoying free open-air concerts.”
