Taylor Swift's recent concerts in Edinburgh, part of her Eras Tour, created seismic activity that was detected up to 6 kilometers away. The enthusiastic dancing of tens of thousands of fans at Murrayfield Stadium caused earthquake monitors to pick up tremors. The British Geological Survey confirmed that the seismic activity was recorded during performances of songs like 'Ready For It?', 'Cruel Summer', and 'Champagne Problems'. The concerts, held over three shows on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, also set a record for the largest concert attendance in Scotland's history, with 73,000 fans in attendance. Additionally, the events provided an estimated $98 million economic boost to the region.
