Taylor Swift fans are officially gearing up for the singer’s highly anticipated first show of her Eras Tour, which takes place in Edinburgh tonight.
The Grammy Award-winner kicks off her UK tour at Murrayfield Stadium from tonight (June 7) until Sunday (June 9), and anyone with a ticket for this weekend’s shows will likely be making sure they have everything they need.
If you’re sitting further away from the stage, we recommend the Hontry binoculars from Amazon, which are currently reduced from £34.99 to £23.99 and available for next day delivery, making them ideal for anyone enjoying the Swifties this weekend.
While they may seem like an odd piece of gear to bring, binoculars are listed in Ticketmaster’s “30 Dos and Don’ts for Concert-Going Fans,” and the ticketing site says they can “enhance the viewing experience.”
These lightweight binoculars are compact enough to easily fit into a stadium-friendly clear handbag. Designed for concert use, they feature fully multi-coated optics that give concert goers “a crystal clear view” of the main stage.
This nifty device also features a high-resolution 25mm objective lens and a 1,000-yard field of view, so Taylor Swift fans can watch their favorite performance from anywhere in the stadium, and its foldable design makes it compact enough for easy storage.
Hontry binoculars have an impressive 4.5 rating from over 19,000 reviews worldwide thanks to their “ultra-compact” design and “clear focus”, making them perfect for Taylor Swift fans who don’t want to miss a single moment of this weekend’s performance at Murrayfield.

One rave review said, “I was extremely impressed with the quality of these binoculars. They’re compact yet very sturdy and well made. They fit easily in a purse or bag, or even a men’s jeans pocket, making them perfect for taking on hikes or to a concert. They’re crystal clear and perfectly adjustable to fit any face.”
A second shopper raved: “A friend had these binoculars on a trip to Spain last fall and was blown away by their size, weight and sharpness of focus, so I ordered another pair when I got home. I plan to use them for bird watching, traveling and concerts.”

Another Amazon shopper wrote: “Perfect for a concert. Amazing! We were seated at the very back of the arena and these binoculars gave us a perfectly clear view of the stage.”
Another user commented, “These were perfect for a concert I went to recently. Glad I bought them last minute. The seats were good but I didn’t have glasses so these were perfect for getting a better view of the stage. Delivery was fast too. Highly recommend.”
However, one concert-goer felt the binoculars were not suitable for him, writing, “They are good for concerts, but the eye distance is not suitable for adults. These binoculars may be better suited for children.”
