The side stories of The Eras Tour from Taylor Swift are still endless, each city she visits is a new story. In Munich (Germany), the last 2 shows of The Eras Tour will probably set a record as the city with the most “free viewing” audiences!

Perhaps everyone knows all too well the huge attraction of the shows within the framework of The Eras Tour, no matter how many more shows are opened, Taylor Swift will quickly sell out. The organizers even arranged to sell tickets in the areas hidden behind the stage, but they were still completely sold out. Taylor Swift fans have since then also spread the term “CAT100” to refer to the audience who could not buy tickets, gathering in large crowds outside the stadium to “enjoy” the atmosphere of The Eras Tour. This “CAT100” is everywhere, can attract up to tens of thousands of people and the climax is the 2 shows of The Eras Tour in Munich.

The number of spectators was not inferior to the one inside the stadium, and even looked more impressive!

Due to the special location of the Olympiastadion – where The Eras Tour Munich took place – located next to a high hill, when the show took place, a large number of spectators gathered on this hill to “watch for free” the show from afar. The number of spectators gathered in the “CAT100” area grew larger and larger, filling the hill and creating an extremely impressive scene when viewed from inside the stadium looking out. This image is being widely shared by netizens, proving the strong appeal of The Eras Tour. Munich police confirmed that the crowd gathered on day 1 was 40,000 people, enough to open an additional 3rd night of performance.

Taylor Swift at the recent show in Munich.

On the second night, which was also Taylor Swift’s last night in Munich during The Eras Tour, the number of spectators at “CAT100” increased to 50,000 people, totaling about 90,000 “free-riders” after 2 days. When opening the concert in Munich tonight, Taylor Swift herself humorously “checked in” that in addition to the more than 74,000 “regular” spectators in the stadium, there were about 50,000 more people on the mountain next door.

I don’t know whether Taylor Swift should laugh or cry when she sees this scene because if the crew had been flexible enough to open a third night, she might not have “lost money” like this! According to Billboard’s report, the average ticket price for The Eras Tour’s European leg is 340 USD, so it is estimated that she has “lost” nearly 60 billion VND!
