Taylor Swift breaks historic record for her concert in Lyon

two concerts groupama stadium lyon

Taylor Swift gave the first of her two concerts at Groupama Stadium in Lyon this Sunday evening. Despite the rain, the superstar was delighted to have broken an attendance record for a female artist:

Taylor Swift in France, second! A month after his four concert events at Paris La Défense Arena, the megastar settled down at Groupama Stadium in Lyon for the continuation of his record-breaking tour "The Eras Tour". This Sunday evening, the American singer gave the first of her two shows for 3h15, performing the hits "Cruel Summer", "Blank Space" and "Anti-Hero", and celebrating Pride Month, even if the rain played surprise guests during the evening. “We have a rainy concert tonight. You are truly champions and heroes for continuing to dance in the rain,” she announced during the “Folkmore” portion of her show, before coming to the aid of a fan in difficulty in the front rows, by appealing to security guards in French: “Please!” (...) We take care of you because you are the best.” The Lyon public was especially waiting for the famous "surprise songs" and they were delighted: she performed "The Prophecy", taken from her latest album "The Tortured Poets Department", on the guitar, then a mashup of "Fifteen" and “You’re On Your Own, Kid” on the piano.

“I didn’t think we would have this much fun.”

Everywhere she goes in Eras Tour , Taylor Swift creates an event, and Lyon has not escaped it. At the start of the show, the star announced big news to her fans: like in Paris, she broke the attendance record for a concert by a female artist at Groupama Stadium in Lyon! “Look how you welcome us, it’s incredible!” Before going on stage, I was told that thanks to you, it was a record for a concert by a female artist in Lyon. It’s a really exciting start to the show,” she told the delirious crowd just before performing “Lover”. According to our colleagues from Le Parisien, there were 62,000 Swifties last night in Lyon. Until now, Mylène Farmer held the record with 45,000 spectators for her "Nevermore" tour just a year ago, while the concerts of Rihanna and Céline Dion, the only other women to have filled the stadium, attracted between 35 and 39,000 spectators in 2016 and 2017.

However, Taylor Swift does not beat the absolute attendance record at Groupama Stadium, held by Indochine. On June 25, 2022, 72,500 fans applauded the French rock group's "Central Tour", on the central stage, captured for the release of the CD and DVD a few months later. Regardless, the “Fortnight” singer recalled on stage how happy she was to play in Europe after so many years of waiting: “You know, I haven't toured Europe a lot. I didn't know what to expect when I came to do these two concerts Groupama Stadium lyon. But I can't thank you enough for the way you made us feel welcome. I have never played in front of such crowds in my life. (...) I didn’t think we would have so much fun on this European Eras tour.”

things to know about Claudia Sheinbaum, the first woman elected president of Mexico

first woman elected president mexico

Here are 6 things to know about Claudia Sheinbaum, who became the first woman elected president of Mexico on Sunday.

1 - The first woman elected president of Mexico

Aged 61, Claudia Sheinbaum made Mexican history on Sunday, becoming the first woman elected as head of the country since its independence in 1821.

The new president also announced that she had not voted for herself on Sunday, but for a pioneer of the Mexican left, Ifigenia Martinez, aged 93.

2 - She is an environmental scientist

Raised by a biochemist mother and a chemist father, Claudia Sheinbaum holds a master's degree in energy engineering from the University of Mexico (UNAM), as well as a doctorate in energy engineering which she earned through work at Lawrence National Laboratory -Berkley of the US Department of Energy.

She has published dozens of scientific articles on energy efficiency, her favorite field. She also wrote part of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report in 2007, the year the group won the Nobel Peace Prize.

3 – She was mayor of Mexico City

She served as mayor of Mexico City, the country's capital, between 2018 and 2023. She is best known for increasing security on the streets and making life difficult for criminal gang leaders.

However, her years as mayor were also marred by the tragic collapse of a metro line when a train passed by on May 3, 2021. The tragedy left 27 dead and 79 injured.

The new president's government was singled out in the affair because reports showed that the accident was caused by construction defects.

4 – She succeeds her mentor

On October 1, the 61-year-old will take over from her political mentor, outgoing left-wing President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, nicknamed AMLO.

When he was mayor of Mexico City between 2000 and 2006, he entrusted him with one of the most important portfolios in the administration, that of the environment. A strategic position in the megacity which had nine million inhabitants in 2023.

Claudia Sheinbaum thus contributed to the construction of the second floor of the “ring road”, a transport system set up to relieve congestion on one of the urban highways which crosses Mexico City. She is also behind the development of reserved bus lanes and cycle paths in the metropolis.

5 – She wants to fight against femicide

According to UN Women, 70% of Mexican women over the age of 15 have experienced gender-based violence at least once in their life, including sexual harassment and abuse.

The president-elect “will have a specific policy towards feminicides, which Lopez Obrador did not want to have”, hopes Pamela Starr, expert on Mexico at the University of Southern California.

Ms. Sheinbaum proposes creating teams dedicated to investigating feminicides. At the end of 2022, she accused the prosecutor's office in Morelos, a state south of Mexico, of protecting the alleged murderer of a young woman who disappeared in the capital.

6 – She wants to take on the cartels

To tackle cartels and violence in the country, she promised to target the causes of violence, strengthen the National Guard, and move towards a policy of “zero impunity” against criminals.

“We will lead Mexico on the path to peace and security,” Sheinbaum said after announcing her victory.

Cartels and violence have marked this electoral campaign. 37 political candidates have been killed in Mexico in recent months, including legislative and local elections that took place during the same period. 27,000 soldiers were mobilized on Sunday to ensure the security of the vote.

Taylor Swift ignited Groupama Stadium

taylor swift ignited groupama stadium

On Sunday June 2, 2024, in Lyon metropolis, Taylor Swift set Groupama Stadium in Décines-Charpieu on fire 

The American star gave nearly 3.5 hours of show for the first Lyon date of his "The Eras Tour" on Sunday June 2 at Groupama Stadium.

Almost 3h30 of show, 40 hits linked together without a hitch and without false notes, carefully staged scenes, fans called the Swifties in full hysteria and in perfect communion: Taylor Swift ignited Groupama Stadium in Décines-Charpieu, in the metropolis of Lyon, Sunday June 2, 2024.

The American star who hits cities as well as hits gave his first mega concert of his two dates in Lyon.

Countdown, XXL screen and masterful entrance

Fans fought for a seat. The 34-year-old American, who has exceeded a billion dollars in personal fortune, can boast of moving crowds around the world. Last night among the 63,000 spectators, Americans, Spaniards, English and of course French, at home.

It is 8:10 p.m. when a giant countdown on a clock is displayed on an XXL screen in front of the monumental stage set up on the lawn of Groupama Stadium. After the last ten seconds are counted down by excited Swifties, the show begins. And the least we can say is that we’re going to be amazed by it.

His entrance is masterful. Taylor swift ignited Groupama Stadium. Sorts of orange peacock plumes emerge one by one from the screen in the smoke and advance at length towards the pit. They gather at the end, bend down and when they get up, they reveal the singer in the middle of fifteen dancers.

“Lyon, enchanted”

After four dates in Paris in May, the singer learned a few words of French. Sweet words for his fans who are raising the temperature in the stadium. Swifties never put down their phones, know every word to his songs and scream with every bat of their idol's eyelashes.

“Lyon, enchanted,” exclaims Taylor Swift at the start of the concert. 

During the concert, it is in French in the text that she declares her love to her fans. “I love you all,” she said to the screams. “C’est ma première fois à Lyon, c’est incroyable. Ne pas avoir assez fait de concerts en France, je ne ferai pas cette erreur à nouveau !". "Je vous aime tous"

Over 40 tracks, no downtime and incredible outfits

The star's contract is respected. For her “The Eras Tour”, she reviews her entire career, from well-known hits like “Cruel Summer”, “Karma”, “Shake it off”, “Delicate” through more confidential titles for the general public , best known to Swifties.

Taylor Swift had a series of charts and hits, more than 40 in 3 hours 20 minutes of show.

Taylor Swift's strength is the sequence of paintings, without interruption. She performs “Were are never ever getting back together” and “All too well” alone with her acoustic guitar then sways amidst smoke and moving cube-shaped stages on “Shake it off”. She also masters the piano perfectly live.

It is impossible here to reveal all the paintings which follow one another at full speed. Walls of flame, smoke, decorations, XXL dresses, fanfares: Taylor Swift arrived with a huge American-style device.

The rain doesn't stop Taylor Swift

The bad weather neither cooled the Swifties nor the singer. In the pouring rain, she performed several of her songs including “Enchanted” in a long princess dress, without stopping. The artist is used to it and it’s not the drops in Lyon that will stop him. In May 2023, she performed for 3.5 hours in torrential rain during a date in the United States.

The finale is explosive with fireworks and pyrotechnic effects after 3h20 of show without break. Too long ? The public who came to accompany the die-hard fans may have found the time long. But not the Swifties who are still asking for more. Some will even be present this Monday evening for the singer's second Lyon the Eras tour concert.

The organization of Groupama Stadium criticized

While fans loved Taylor Swift's performance, many Swifties didn't really like the organization of the event. According to comments on site, access to the pit was difficult at certain stadium doors when the doors opened. It took more than 30 minutes to enter the stadium which annoyed some spectators who missed the start of the first part provided by Paramore. 

Leaving the stadium was also complicated. At 1 a.m., fans were still waiting in the queue for the tram shuttles even though the last departure was announced for 12:15 a.m. 

Many foreign fans were looking for taxis and VTCs, particularly numerous around the stadium, which caused huge traffic jams and a lot of irritation after the show. The organizers still have a few hours to correct the situation and make amends with the Swifties…
