Taylor Swift’s Toronto Shows Brought Big Bucks to the City

It’s not just Toronto’s Wildest Dreams—Taylor Swift’s first three shows at the Rogers Centre had a massive economic impact on the city. Swifties filled the streets, stores, and snack shops, giving downtown Toronto a major spending boost.

A 57% Spending Surge

According to Moneris, Canada’s leading payment services provider, spending in downtown Toronto was up by an impressive 57% during the pop star’s concerts from November 14–16. The surge was seen across all categories, showing the powerful ripple effect of Swift’s presence in the city.

Tourists flocked to Toronto

International visitors were a big part of the spending boom, with their spending more than doubling (+126%) compared to the previous week. Tourists were particularly drawn to entertainment, with spending on movies and theatrical productions skyrocketing by a staggering 505% and 174%, respectively.

Shopping and Snacks Were a Hit

Toronto’s retailers also benefited from the Eras Tour excitement:

  • Clothing store sales rose by 32%
  • Accessory store sales jumped 78%
  • Snack shops saw a 61% increase in spending

While restaurant spending remained relatively stable (+2%), it’s clear concertgoers opted for quicker dining options to fuel up before dancing the night away.

The Swift Effect

The figures, derived from aggregated transaction data processed by Moneris, show the undeniable impact of Taylor Swift’s visit. From boosting local businesses to drawing international fans, her presence brought a wave of good Karmato Toronto.

For Toronto businesses and Swifties alike, it’s safe to say Taylor’s visit was a Love Story worth celebrating!
