Kaitlyn Smith: Herald Sun reporter ahead of Taylor Swift's Melbourne Concerts - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

Airports around the country will be filled with eager Swifties heading off to Melbourne this weekend. 

Taylor Swift left a 'Blank Space' in Kiwi hearts, skipping New Zealand in her The Eras Tour line up. 

Melbourne-based Herald Sun reporter Kaitlyn Smith told Mike Hosking that the city's buzzing. 

Swift's performing three shows in Melbourne, starting tonight, before heading to Sydney next weekend. 

Her visit and the subsequent revenue its generating couldn’t come at a better time, Smith said, especially after the Commonwealth Games “debacle”.
