Travis Kelce attends Eras Tour concert in ‘Swiftkirchen,’ Swift asks staff to help fan
Oh hi, Travis Kelce!
Fans noticed the Kansas City tight end in a dark tee and white cap watching the Eras Tour from a suite inside the Veltins-Arena on Wednesday.
The Gelsenkirchen, Germany, appearance is Kelce’s 12th since he and Taylor Swift went public last September. He attended his first concert in Buenos Aires, Argentina, followed by Sydney, two nights in Singapore, the final night in Paris, all three nights in London, one night in Dublin and two nights in Amsterdam.
Will Kelce appear onstage in Germany?
It’s possible that Kelce will make a second onstage cameo in Gelsenkirchen. He loves to make not-so-subtle teases on his podcast “New Heights.”

After carrying Swift during her “Tortured Poets” set on the final night in London, the football player told his brother Jason and Swifties, “You guys will have to keep showing up to the Eras Tour to see if I pop out of the stage or whatnot.”
Although the singer has 35 more concerts in 10 cities, the tight end is due back at training camp for the Chiefs from July 21 to Aug. 15, and there is a preseason game during her Wembley Stadium shows in the United Kingdom.
Swift pauses German concert for distressed fan
“We need some help back there, thank you very much,” Swift said holding her guitar before singing her song “Betty.”
In her cream-colored “Folklore” dress, the singer-songwriter pointed down the catwalk. “Just right there,” she said to stadium staff before sing-talking, “Gonna wait until I see that it’s happened.”
Taylor Swift performs on stage during the Eras Tour at Wembley Stadium on June 21, 2024, in London, England.
Swift has paused her concerts at 47% of her European dates to make sure distressed fans on the packed, open seating floor receive help. The interruptions occur during a number of different songs and at different times but are usually close to one of her speeches ahead of “All Too Well,” “Betty” or “Champagne Problems.” She then thanks the stadium crew if they get to a fan with haste.
“The incredible crew at this stadium are so quick getting to you guys really, really fast and helping out to make sure that you have water and make sure you’re cared for,” she said of the Veltins-Arena staff. “I always really appreciate that when we play at a stadium and they really care about the people who are coming to the concerts so that is just incredible.”
As the staff approached the fan in need of help, Swift went on with the Eras Tour show saying, “Anyway this is a story I wrote about a girl named ‘Betty.'”
