A recent study by the Seismological Society of America (SSA) reveals the concerts that have shaken the planet the most.

American seismologists examined music fans' gatherings to determine which ones made the earth shake the most. Unsurprisingly, one of Taylor Swift's concerts tops the list of the most significant phenomena observed.

On 22 July 2023, the singer performed on stage at Lumen Field in Seattle (Washington) and gathered no fewer than 72,171 spectators. During this large gathering, fans generated a magnitude 2.3 earthquake, according to analyses by Jackie Caplan-Auerbach, seismologist and professor of geology at Western Washington University.
