On Friday, early ticketholders can get to the stadium from 3pm while all others have to wait until 4pm.

By the afternoon, the weather in the city should have cleared after heavy downpour in the morning and some rain until midday.

A spokesperson for the Met Office warned it will stay ‘blustery too.’

If everything runs on time, Taylor will get on stage from 8pm after American emo band Paramore has warmed up the crowd.

Temperatures are set to fall slightly across the UK, although no area will be completely drenched as any rain remains patchy, with some wet weather in North West.
