Taylor Swift’s billion-dollar Eras Tour recently graced Edinburgh, bringing a flood of enthusiastic Swifties to the city and creating an exceptional boom for local businesses. Tens of thousands of fans flocked to cafes, bars, and tourist attractions, with the city’s hospitality industry experiencing a significant surge in sales over the weekend. The three-night stint at Murrayfield Stadium had an "unbelievable impact" on the city, inspiring the Edinburgh Taylored Taste Trail. Shops, cafes, and restaurants featured Taylor-themed offerings such as Blank Space chocolates, Shake It Off confetti creations, and Enchanted teas. Some businesses even created their own friendship bracelets, a staple of the Taylor Swift fan experience, adding to the vibrant atmosphere.
The community spirit among Swifties was palpable, with fans trading handmade friendship bracelets, a cherished part of the Taylor Swift concert experience. Lauren Stenhouse, owner of Coro The Chocolate Cafe, reported a record weekend, selling over 100 bespoke Taylor-inspired chocolate fondue boards. "It's been unreal. That's been our best weekend since we have opened," she shared, noting the positive impact on her small business. The influx of fans brought unprecedented motivation and excitement, transforming what could have been challenging times into a memorable and profitable experience. The cafe was bustling with Swifties exchanging bracelets and creating a warm, communal environment.
Claire Meikle, general manager of The Alchemist, echoed similar sentiments, describing the bar filled with excited fans adorned in sequins and glitter. Many international fans from the US and Canada chose to enjoy their Taylor Swift experience in Scotland, citing exorbitant ticket prices back home. The Alchemist responded to the Swiftie invasion by distributing handmade friendship bracelets with certain drinks, though demand quickly outpaced supply. "It was a great fun weekend," Meikle remarked, highlighting the sense of camaraderie and shared joy among fans and businesses alike. The Eras Tour not only delivered unforgettable performances but also invigorated Edinburgh’s local economy and fostered a strong sense of community.
