TAYLOR Swift looks likely to break the record for Scotland’s biggest-selling stadium show when she performs at Murrayfield this week.

The Eras Tour gigs are likely to see Swift unseat Harry Styles as the current record holder following his concert at the same venue in 2023.More than 65,000 fans attended in 2023 and, prior to this, Styles’ band One Direction held the title for selling 64,000 tickets in the Scottish capital in 2014.Almost 55,000 fans headed to Edinburgh to see her perform while an estimated 52,000 fans went to see American rocker Bruce Springsteen last year.

This broke the previous record held by Gerry Cinnamon from November 2019 by 146, with the Scottish rocker selling 14,805 tickets.We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
