Based on frantic threads from Swifties on Reddit and X, we know that reliable data is a top concern. This guide will walk you through essential international concert travel tips, with a special focus on how to stay seamlessly connected without breaking the bank. Let’s make sure your travel era is as iconic as the show itself. For a head start, why not test out our connectivity with a free trial eSIM?
Pre-Tour Checklist: More Than Just Friendship Bracelets
Before you pack your ‘Reputation’ outfit, let’s cover the basics. A smooth trip starts with solid planning.
- Tickets & Venue: Double-check your ticket details on an official platform like Ticketmaster. Save a digital copy to your phone and a printout, just in case. Know the stadium’s rules on bags and cameras.
- Passport & Visas: Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your travel dates. Check if you need a visa for your destination country.
- Flights & Accommodation: Book flights and accommodation well in advance. Prices surge around major events like the Eras Tour.
- Transportation: Research public transport options from your hotel to the venue. Using apps like Google Maps or Citymapper will be crucial, and that requires data!
The Connectivity Era: Why Your Phone is Your MVP
In a foreign country, your smartphone transforms from a communication device to your lifeline. You’ll need a reliable data connection for:
- Navigation: Finding your way around a city like Paris or London with Google Maps.
- Ride-Sharing: Ordering an Uber or Bolt after the show.
- Instant Updates: Posting your concert experience to Instagram, TikTok, and X. How else will everyone see your surprise songs?
- Communication: Staying in touch with your friends in the massive stadium crowds via WhatsApp.
- Mobile Tickets: Accessing your digital ticket without relying on spotty stadium Wi-Fi.
The old ways just don’t cut it. International roaming plans from your home carrier can be incredibly expensive, and hunting for a local physical SIM card upon arrival is a hassle. This is where a modern solution comes in.
Your Digital ‘Getaway Car’: Seamless Connectivity with an eSIM
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM card that lets you activate a cellular plan from a provider without needing a physical SIM. For an international Swiftie, it’s the perfect travel companion.

Conquering the Stadium: How to Stay Connected in a Crowd
Stadiums are notorious for poor cell service due to network congestion—tens of thousands of fans trying to use their phones at once. While no network is invincible, having a dedicated data-only eSIM can often give you an edge over congested public Wi-Fi.
Here are some tips on how to get reliable internet at the Eras Tour Europe:
- Pre-Download Everything: Download your mobile ticket, maps of the area, and any playlists to your phone before you arrive.
- Prioritize Texting: Use messaging apps like WhatsApp or iMessage, which use less data than social media apps.
- Upload Later: Film as many videos as you want, but wait until you’re back at your hotel’s Wi-Fi to upload them. Your data (and battery) will thank you.
- Set a Meeting Spot: If you’re with friends, establish a physical meeting spot beforehand in case you can’t get in touch. For more tips, check out our guide on how to fix slow data in crowded places.
