Taylor kicks off the international leg of her blockbuster Eras Tour this weekend in Edinburgh. And right now, devoted fans are making their way to Scotland to see their idol play one of three nights at the Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium.

And, in some good news for all of us who couldn’t get tickets, people are sharing their experiences of their trips to the Scottish capital. And they are glorious. There are no tortured poets here – just fearless lovers who speak now of how they will adore Taylor for evermore.
Here are some of the most glorious reactions from travelling fans we’ve seen so far (The Poke’s Version).
1.
Train is packed with Swifties chatting about tonight’s show. Among them, a lady about 50 who doesn’t know Swift’s music but is going because ‘I don’t like to miss out on what everyone’s doing’. She’s in for quite a weird evening, I think.

This train trip has already been so fun. Swifties are boarding at every stop
A life highlight certainly included an older gent sitting across from us with a “Not A Lot Going On At The Moment” shirt and a 4-pack of beer.#EdinburghTStheErasTour pic.twitter.com/jMG1SsYiKJ
