Taylor Swift concert in chaos as stadium evacuated due to lightning strikes and fans involved in bus crash

Taylor Swift fans in Sydney who dropped everything to meet in the pouring rain were met with chaos as a busload of Swifties were involved in a crash and fans were evacuated from the venue due to lightning strikes.

The Cruel Summer hitmaker, 34, has taken her mammoth Eras Tour Down Under, where she will play at Sydney’s Accor Stadium from Friday until February 26 with support from Sabrina Carpenter.

But the eagerly-anticipated shows got off to a wet and rainy start with Swifties evacuated from the venue mid-set due to ‘flooding and lightning strike’.

A bus taking fans to the venue was also involved in a dramatic collision with a truck, leaving the devastated concertgoers stuck.
