The credit for the growth goes to Swift who held three concerts and performed at the Lincoln Financial Field in May. The report reads, "Despite the slowing recovery in tourism in the region overall, one contact highlighted that May was the strongest month for hotel revenue in Philadelphia since the onset of the pandemic, in large part due to an influx of guests for the Taylor Swift concerts in the city." Known as The Linc, the stadium is a 67,000-seater.

Swift's three concerts were held on 12, 13, and 14 May as she returned to her home state of Pennsylvania. Previously, Chicago's official tourism and marketing organization titled Choose Chicago credited Swift for an economic boost and revealed that the first weekend of June broke hotel occupancy records due to Swift's shows which have been selling out faster than one can think of as fans from across the world try to get tickets to her concerts.

The pop star joins Beyoncé on the list of singers whose tours have boosted the entertainment industry after the pandemic led to a serious drop in viewership and audience interest as well as multiple postponements and cancellations. Swift's re-release of her 2010 album Speak Now is also enjoying massive success as fans rush to buy vinyl records and copies.
