To get ready for the big night, my colleague and I headed to the ultimate Swiftie hotspot—Boxpark Wembley, the only place playing Miss Swift's music non-stop for 12 hours. Boxpark Wembley is a lively entertainment venue featuring a wide range of street food vendors, bars, and live events.

We arrived just a couple of hours before the warm-up acts, RAYE and Paramore, and spent our time mingling with other Swifties, belting out hits like “Wildest Dreams” and “I Knew You Were Trouble,” and sipping on delicious cocktails. (Image: Poppy Huggett) As expected, the venue was packed with super fans, adorned with friendship bracelets and glitter, all eagerly awaiting what would be one of the greatest concerts of their lives (and I can confirm, it was). The atmosphere was electric, with a DJ keeping the energy high through Taylor Swift-themed quizzes and competitions.
While at Boxpark, I indulged in some street food from Wild Buffalo, savoring succulent pulled beef nuggets and crispy fries—all for under £10. Other mouth-watering options included viral sensations Funky Chips, Sidemen’s Sides, and Yorkshire Burrito. We spent most of our time at Boxpark speculating about which surprise songs Taylor might sing and whether she’d bring out any special guests for her final night at Wembley.
