Don't panic! Taylor Swift warned fans to expect sirens for WWII anniversary in Warsaw before concert
Taylor Swift warned fans traveling to her first concert in Warsaw this week to not panic when they hear sirens marking a World War II anniversary
WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Taylor Swift warned fans who traveled to her concert in Warsaw on Thursday to expect loud sirens in the afternoon honoring a key World War II anniversary.
When the moment came, many of the fans who arrived for the concert also stood in tribute.
The Polish capital held observances to mark the 80th anniversary of the start of the 1944 Warsaw Uprising, a 63-day revolt by Polish insurgents after five years of brutal Nazi German occupation. The entire city stops and alarm sirens sound every year on Aug. 1 at the exact time when the revolt was launched.
“To the people who are coming to the concert on August 1st don’t panic if you hear sirens alarm about 5 p.m. It will be the 80th anniversary & planes!” Swift's “The Eras Tour” posted on social media.
