During her Eras Tour stop in Indianapolis, Taylor Swift reportedly suffered a serious leg injury, leading to her urgent transport to a nearby hospital.
Fans in the audience were stunned as the show abruptly halted, and paramedics arrived to provide immediate assistance. Swift’s team has not yet released an official statement on her condition, but fans and supporters are flooding social media with messages of concern and well-wishes for a swift recovery.
The incident has raised questions about the future of her tour dates, as fans anxiously await updates.
Taylor Swift’s widely celebrated Eras Tour has achieved a huge milestone by selling out the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis and breaking records with 69,000 tickets sold.
Spanning three consecutive nights from November 1 to November 3, the concerts drew music lovers and Swifties to witness a spectacle in the heart of downtown Indianapolis. This is also a big return for Swift, who first performed in the city at the age of 17.
Lucas Oil Stadium, the venue for this monumental event, is known for its state-of-the-art facilities, including a retractable roof that offers unique versatility for different events throughout the year. Known as the home of the NFL’s Indianapolis Colts, the stadium has hosted numerous iconic occasions, from the dramatic Super Bowl XLVI to the College Football Playoff National Championship in 2022. And the city itself hosts the largest sing-day paid sporting event in the world – something it is very proud of.
On November 1, Swift’s concert at the stadium attracted an impressive crowd of 69,000, setting a new record for the largest audience ever welcomed for a concert at the venue.
Despite the high price range, with ticket prices listed between $2,199 to $13,495 for a selection of seats, the three-day concert was a resounding success. Ticket sales soared, reflecting both the pent-up demand for Swift’s live performances and her powerful draw as an international pop icon. The influence of the event will also have a huge economic impact on Indianapolis, a city with a strong tradition of hosting major events like the Indianapolis 500.
Indianapolis boasts a robust infrastructure capable of supporting these types of events. The city’s experience with the Indianapolis 500, which attracted over 330,000 attendees for its 108th running, proves it has the ability to accommodate massive crowds.
Fans from various parts of the country, including Washington and Wisconsin, have travelled to Indianapolis. Among the audience was Caitlin Clark, the Indiana Fever’s WNBA Rookie of the Year, according to Forbes.
Gracie Abrams is serving as the opening act.
When the tour finishes this December, Swift will have completed 149 concerts, making it the longest tour in music history. And when her song ‘Champagne Problems’ finished, the crowd gave her the longest standing ovation yet, clocking in at 3:40 minutes according to Billboard.
Following Indianapolis, she will continue to Canada where it will come to an end after Toronto and Vancouver.

“We’ve gotten to take The Eras Tour all over the world this year. In 2024, we’ve gone to Australia, Asia, we spent all of our summer in Europe, and we decided: We have got to bring this tour in front of the most dedicated, passionate, enthusiastic, excitable, loud fans. So we decided that the very last U.S. city on The Eras Tour would, in fact, be right here in Indianapolis, Indiana. And I can already tell we made the best decision possible,” she told Billboard when asked why she chose to sing in Indiana.
