Taylor Swift has returned to the stage at London’s Wembley Stadium on Thursday, just over a week after three of her Eras Tour concerts in Vienna were canceled when police in the Austrian city thwarted a terror attack plot targeting one of her shows.
Swift last performed her concert in front of audiences in Warsaw, Poland in the beginning of August. She was supposed to begin a three-show stop in Vienna on Aug. 9 when Austrian authorities said they had prevented an ISIS-inspired plot to attack one of her concerts during that leg.
