Social media erupted after a viral photo showing a baby on the floor during Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour concert at La Défense Arena in Paris.
The image, taken by concert-goer @jacnights13 and shared widely by Swiftie fan accounts, depicts a baby wearing a light-up wristband in the pit with a person, presumably a parent, hovering nearby.
Additional photos surfaced online, including one posted by @irondaya on X, showing the baby snoozing amid the bustling crowd. “The lack of common sense is astonishing to me.”
Baby on the floor at Swift’s concert
While the baby wore noise-reducing headphones, seeing an infant lying on the ground with stomping feet sparked widespread concern.
Fanfluencer Olivia Levin, who shared the image on her popular Instagram account Swifties for Eternity, noted the overwhelming alarm from her followers. “From what I’ve seen, mostly people were appalled by it,” said Levin, who later removed the post to protect the baby’s privacy.
“It brings up an important conversation about how young is too young to be at a show,” Levin added.
Typical of the horrified reactions was a comment on X by @whatamind13, who shared a photo of the packed stadium: “Just to paint the full picture, this is general admission at the Paris show tonight… and that baby is somewhere on the floor AT THIS SHOW! … terrible parenting.”
Parenting choices
La Défense Arena’s website advises against bringing children under four due to high volume and notes that strollers are prohibited. A venue spokesperson told Page Six that alternative seating was offered to the family but they refused.
The debate continues, with passionate arguments on both sides about the appropriateness and safety of bringing an infant to a high-energy concert. As this incident shows, the conversation about parenting choices at public events is far from over.
