Do You Have FOMO Too?

Taylor Swift took Louisiana by storm when she brought her Era's Tour to New Orleans. Taylor had three sold-out nights at Ceasars Superdome. Did you see everyone on your social media trying to locate some last-minute concert tickets? It felt like half of our Swifties in Shreveport-Bossier scored tickets to one of the shows.

My favorite thing about the Taylor Swift effect is how different New Orleans looked. I saw countless TikToks of Taylor Swift’s fans discovering amazing bars and eateries, and who doesn't love the sight of karaoke and friendship bracelets being traded all over Bourbon Street?

The Taylor Swift effect was amazing for the New Orleans economy, according to Fox8Live.com, "CEO Michael Hecht of Greater New Orleans, Inc. Hecht says the Eras Tour brought an estimated $200M impact to the area on ticket sales alone." If you went to New Orleans and you feel like you spent way too much money for a day just know you're not alone. "Hecht also noted the US Travel Association’s estimate that each concertgoer spent an additional $1,300 on merch, food, drinks, hotels, etc."
