More than 150,000 people were set to see Taylor Swift perform her record-selling Eras Tour at the Ernst Happel Stadium in Vienna, Austria, between Aug. 8 and Aug. 10, though all three shows have been canceled. According to ABC News, two suspects were arrested for allegedly plotting a terror attack in Vienna, with the concert venue being the intended target.

"With confirmation from government officials of a planned terrorist attack at Ernst Happel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone's safety," the statement reads.

Vienna attendees for the Taylor Swift Eras Tour will receive refunds for their tickets.

According to Barracuda Music and Taylor's own tour website, those who purchased tickets to the three Vienna dates will automatically receive refunds for their tickets "within the next 10 business days." All three events were sold out.

Before the venue made the decision to cancel the dates, Franz Ruf, the director-general for public safety in the Ministry of the Interior, stated the initial plan was to increase security at these concerts.

Will the Eras Tour Vienna dates be rescheduled?

At this time, it does not seem as though the dates in Vienna will be rescheduled. Though the comments on the original post are filled with angry Swifties upset that their tour date has been canceled so close to the event, it does not seem as though there are any plans from Taylor or her team to reschedule the shows.

Taylor is scheduled to fly to London and perform five shows back to back from Aug. 15 to Aug. 20, making a reschedule difficult. This will be the last portion of the European leg of her tour before she flies to Canada and the U.S. in October to finish out the Eras Tour.

At this time, Taylor has not released a comment about the venue's decision to cancel the dates, nor has she revealed if she's attempting to offer ticket holders a different date to attend instead.
