In addition to the fans, the singer herself should also be honored-Taylor Swift receives its own stone on the "Walk of Fame" in the Buer district. In doing so, she lends herself to the prominent society of personalities such as Rudi Assauer and Anton Stankowski, who are also honored there.

The Veltins-Arena is now being prepared for the upcoming concerts. The stage is already being built up, whereby the exact design is kept secret for the time being to maintain the tension for fans.
