Thousands of Taylor Swift fans enjoyed free seats to her concerts in Munich from a grassy hill near the concert venue.
The Swifties flocked to Olympic Hill, or Olympiaberg, one of the highest elevations in the southern German city, for the second straight day on Sunday. This vantage point provided them with an excellent view of the singer’s sold-out concert in the nearby Olympic Stadium.
On Saturday, they braved the heat, which reached 31 degrees Celsius (88 degrees Fahrenheit), and claimed their spots hours before the concert began.
Police estimated that about 25,000 people gathered on the hill on Saturday, according to the dpa news agency.
On Sunday, fans returned, once again packing the grassy hill with so many people that from a distance the scene resembled an anthill.
Rather than discourage these free viewings, the concert organizers handed out water and emergency blankets to those waiting to protect themselves from the sun, dpa reported.
Sunday’s concert was Swift’s last in Germany as part of her Eras tour. She is set to head next to the Polish capital, Warsaw, for three concerts this coming week, from Thursday through Saturday.
