Good work Austrian authorities. Prevented a huge tragedy.

Thank god that the security in Europe is on top of this. Thoughts of Manchester keep creeping into my mind, we cannot allow that to happen again. Safer to cancel, despite the disappointment of the fans.

Austrian government did the right thing or a huge tragedy would happen. There are 5 more London shows of her eras tour and amid the unrest in UK, I hope people attending will be safe.

Getting pretty bad when you can’t even go to a concert anymore

I am so upset. I had tickets for Gelsenkirchen, could not go as I was in hospital. My husband surprised me with tickets in Vienna, including flight and hotel for the night right after I was released from hospital. My bag was packed and I was almost on my way. Such a weird feeling happy and sad at the same time. I just hope Austria gets the chance to see Taylor one day and with out fear 😢 of course we are still lucky they found out and cancelled the concerts.

This is js not okay dude.I’m getting worried abt Taylor and the fans. There is little kids at theses shows, wanting to see their warrior, idol and much more.Killing Taylor swift fans or just people in general is not good. That’s cruel. Last Week innocent girls were killed. I hate this type of violence to innocent people.

Good job Austria Government!!! That’s how you protect your people and Miss Americana. Swift’s shows are always sold out stadiums. And Ariana Grande is messed up with mad PTSD after the tragedy that happened at hers in Manchester.

all of the people acting like this whole situation and avoiding the topic and saying “her concert is lame” are pathetic bc they don’t even care about a group of people threatening violence and a terrorist attack on a huge group of people. How sad.

This is why we can't have nice things.😢

[KisDraga]

why the flip? COMMON SENSE.. - what kind of question is that. ? they arrested two.. they dont know how big the ploy was .. even if there was one more person left and they didn't get into the venue they could target the transit system which would be flooded with people after the concert ended. there isn't enough time to risk keeping the show on.

Stay safe Taylor. Too many crazy lunatics in this world❤💙💜💛

No faster way to turn people against ISIS than messing with a Taylor Swift concert.

[monaural.]

There are elements out there that cannot stand any human being to be happy if they’re not.

Outstanding job from European intelligence!

[cindythomas]

Omg … this is so sad .. so disgusting!!!! 😡😡😡😡😡😡

[bronwyn]

Can you imagine if this wasn’t caught? I shudder to think the consequences…….

[camgrant]

They said it wasn’t directed specifically at Taylor swift or her concert but at many public events in Vienna so it could have been any concert. Isis wants to sow fear through indiscriminate death. Let’s keep living freely. Great job Austrian intelligence!

[DearReader_Hannah]

And now people are saying she should cancel london shows, i have tickets for london shows and I obviously dont want them to be cancelled for something that happened in austria! Wembly have such good security aswell. Dont cancel the london shows for no reason please. My heart goes out to those who lost tickets from this tragic story.

It was a 19 year old with macedonian roots and a 17 year they're looking for at least one more. And the chemicals were stolen from the former's workplace.

Concerts are soon going to be pay per view, watch in your home.
