Swifties are data hungry. During just one of the eight shows at Wembley Stadium on her Eras Tour, Taylor Swift’s fans consumed a record-breaking 5.58 terabytes of mobile data. That’s enough to stream her entire music catalog 4,500 times, and you would need a decade to do it.

The other seven shows all had similar streaming numbers, making Swift the most popular artist to perform at the venue by streaming numbers. Most of that data was used to stream footage of the event to social media, according to EE, the mobile provider whose infrastructure Wembley uses. Sixteen percent of the data usage was for Instagram, with Snapchat at 11 percent, and TikTok and Facebook both at 8 percent.

Throughout the entire UK leg of the Eras Tour, more than a million Swifties used more than 65 terabytes of data.
