Stevie Nicks and Tim McGraw Reportedly Set to Perform at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's Wedding
Pop superstar Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce are reportedly planning a high-profile wedding, with sources indicating that music legends Stevie Nicks and Tim McGraw are slated to perform.
This development suggests a significant musical component to the highly anticipated event.
The wedding, which some experts predict will be "bigger than the Met Gala," has been the subject of much speculation.
Further details emerged this week, pointing towards Madison Square Garden in New York City as the chosen venue.
A New York Times report revealed that a permit was filed with the city to close streets around the arena for an event on July 3.
Sources close to the event have reportedly informed Page Six that Fleetwood Mac's Stevie Nicks and country artist Tim McGraw have been selected to provide entertainment.
Swift may have offered a subtle hint about Nicks' involvement when she wore a shirt bearing the name "Stevie Knicks" to an NBA Finals game at Madison Square Garden on June 10.
Nicks has a history with Swift, having performed live with her previously and contributing a poem to the CD version of Swift's 2024 album, *The Tortured Poets Department*.
Nicks has also publicly expressed support for Swift's relationship with Kelce, telling Rolling Stone, "She’s in a good place right now, and I think she has a good man.
I hope they fall deeper and deeper in love and ride off into the sunset."
Tim McGraw also holds a special connection to Swift's career, as her first-ever Billboard hit, released in 2006, was titled "Tim McGraw."
Winick Productions, an event planning company, reportedly filed an application with the city's Street Activity Permit Office in early June, requesting authorization for a tent or canopy outside the arena for an event expected to host between 500 and 999 attendees.
Additionally, several members of the Kansas City Chiefs have reportedly booked hotel rooms around July 3 at the Marriott Marquis in Times Square.
A city official briefed on the preparations reportedly stated that Madison Square Garden plans to host the wedding festivities on July 3.
Amtrak police officers, who patrol the station beneath the arena, have also reportedly been informed to expect a Swift wedding during the July 4 weekend.
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani appeared to confirm the nuptials would take place in the city, noting the coincidence with July 4 and America 250, and expressing confidence in the NYPD to ensure a safe experience.
