Taylor Swift fans have descended on Murrayfield ahead of her three sold out shows in Edinburgh.

It comes after the merchandise truck opened at 10am on Wednesday so fans were able to buy posters, water bottles, canvas tote bags, T-shirts and tour hoodies ahead of the beginning of the Eras Tour on Friday.

Massive queues were pictured on Thursday afternoon, as ‘Swifties’ came out in force ahead of the singer’s arrival.

The US megastar will play three nights at Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium on Friday, Saturday and Sunday marking the beginning of the UK leg of her sell-out tour in the capital.

Ahead of hosting 200,000 fans across the weekend, Scottish Gas has even renamed the stadium Scottish Lass in Taylor’s honour.

It also comes after Edinburgh Trams introduced the official Taylor Swift TTPD tram, which is now covered in black with the logo of her new album “The Tortured Poets Department”.

A spokesperson for Scottish Gas Murrayfield said: “Early merch days will be June 5 and 6 and open to all.

“On show days, non-ticket holders can purchase official merchandise between 10am and 1pm. After 1pm, only those with a show ticket for that specific day will be able to access merchandise.”
