A two-bed apartment in west Dublin is up for rent for over €20,000 for the weekend of Taylor Swift’s concerts in the city next year.
It has emerged as hotels came out fighting over allegations of price-gouging ahead of the US pop star’s gigs. The I Knew You Were Trouble singer announced on Tuesday that she would be performing two dates at the Aviva Stadium on Friday, June 28 and Saturday, June 29, 2024.
With many fans rushing to hotel websites to book accommodation in anticipation of securing a ticket, there was shock when some of the listed prices were extortionate. Among them were seemingly an on-site price of €6,500 to stay for both nights at the Westbury Hotel in Dublin city centre when, two weeks prior to the concerts, the same room double room is priced at €595 for two nights on the five-star hotel’s website.
