So, the Lates at the Bank of England Museum are back in action! So, let's pop along and join in the fun!!!
They say: Join us for our Enchanted June Museum Late dedicated to the phenomenon of 'Swiftonomics'! Dive into the world of Taylor Swift's business brilliance and discover how her tours have had a significant impact on the global economy.
Talk: Don't blame me: did Taylor Swift cause inflation?
Taylor Swift's Eras Tour coincided with a period of high inflation across the globe, including in the many countries she played in. Did Swifties attending her concerts cause prices to rise even further?
Rupal will look at the evidence to figure out whether Swiftmania was good or bad for our pockets as well as for the economy.
