In the heart of London, excitement has reached a fever pitch as Taylor Swift’s highly-anticipated Eras Tour is set to sweep through the city in June and August 2024. The impact is not only felt in the buzzing concert venues, but also the city’s hospitality industry.

A similar trend is observed in the third week of August, with hotel bookings rising by an impressive 67%.
