As the NFL season approaches, Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce is back at training camp. Having attended many of her shows and even performing at one, Kelce likely understands the significance of the Vienna concerts, which were unfortunately cancelled.
Just as Swift was preparing to take the stage, an intelligence report revealed a planned terror attack targeting the 65,000 fans expected at the stadium. The three Vienna shows were among the final stops of the European leg of the Eras Tour, making their cancellation especially heartbreaking, according to her representatives.

As per the source, he keeps a phone by his side at night in case she needs him and spends long hours on the phone with her after the Vienna concert cancellation. Kelce is relieved the shows were cancelled, believing it was the right decision given the circumstances. The insider also mentioned that the athlete was so worried about Swift’s safety that he even offered to drop everything, including his NFL training camp, to fly to her side.
“He even suggested flying to Austria to be there for her if she wanted him to do so, even if it was for a day or two, but Taylor is going to keep working and focus on the next dates, with the London concert, to wrap up the Euro part in the best way,” the source said.
Officials say that some teenagers got jobs as security at the event and were thought to have planned to kill people at the concert using homemade bombs and knives. The suspects are still in jail, but Swift’s team took precautions either way. The Lover singer is trying to move on from the mess, taking a few days off after what happened in Vienna and then going back to London to wrap up the tour in Europe.
