- Taylor Swift played her first concert in Zurich on Tuesday evening.
- She was on stage for over three hours.
- The best pictures and videos.
Shortly after 7 pm the time has come. Taylor Swift appears on stage - and makes the crowds scream for the first time. "Grüezi" is the US megastar's first word - the Swiss fans love it.
Beforehand, there had already been hours of waiting outside the stadium. The first Swifties had been standing outside the Letzigrund since 3.30 am.
As usual at Taylor Swift shows, outlandish costumes and clothing dominated - usually matching one of her songs or albums.
The 34-year-old is on stage for over three hours. She played her 113th show on the "Eras" tour on Tuesday, followed by show number 114 on Wednesday. There was no sign of tiredness in "Tay Tay", as her fans like to call her.
The fact that Swift not only casts a spell over ordinary people, but also attracts celebrities, could be seen early on. Among others, Federal Councillor Albert Rösti was a guest and tennis legend Roger Federer also danced along. The official tour account even posted this.

Between mega hits such as "Shake It Off" and "Love Story", Taylor was self-deprecating. One of her stage outfits read: "Who is Taylor Swift anyway? Ugh."

The concert also included a constant costume change. Taylor Swift appeared again and again with new clothes - matching the respective songs.
The 34-year-old was also close to the people. As is customary in Switzerland, she thanked the audience in almost every national language: "Danke and Merci and Grazie ... and you speak a lot of languages here." The fans responded with thunderous applause and cheers.
Taylor Swift finally set the grand finale furioso with her song "Karma" - and a huge firework display over the Letzigrund. The crowds screamed one last time and sang along once more.
