Taylor Swift was seen being driven into the Melbourne Cricket Ground for the second night of the n leg of her Eras tour on Saturday night.
The global megastar, 34, arrived in chauffeured FBI-style as she made her way to the stadium just hours before the show for sound-check.
A cavalcade of blacked out Land Rovers were seen driving down Brunton Ave and into the underground carpark of the venue, with one carrying the Shake It Off star.
Huge crowds were also seen descending on the MCG hours ahead of the show as they tried to beat the queues after the record-breaking first concert on Friday night.
A massive 96,000 fans descended on the MCG for Taylor’s first show, marking the biggest concert of her entire career, while hundreds more ticketless fans gathered outside the stadium to listen in.

Despite already having performed at huge sporting stadiums across the US, the opening night of her n tour broke records, as she has never performed to a crowd larger than 74,000.
Reacting to performing at her biggest show to date, Taylor told the 96,000-strong crowd on Friday: ‘This is the biggest show we’ve done on this tour or any tour I have ever done!
‘That’s the version you get of me tonight, the version that is completely star-struck by the fact that so many of you wanted to hang out with us on Saturday night in Melbourne!’
As well as the massive crowds inside the venue, huge numbers also stood outside the grounds, despite not having secured tickets, in a bid to hear the setlist.
However, Taylor’s n Eras tour has been hit by tragedy after it emerged on Saturday that a teenager was killed in a horrific highway crash while on a family road trip to see the pop star.

Taylor had kicked off the n leg of her Eras tour in Melbourne on Friday night with around 96,000 fans in attendance – the biggest concert of her career.
The godmother of the two girls Karleigh Fox said the two girls were very much looking forward to attending the 14-time Grammy Award winner’s concert.
‘This was supposed to be a road-trip of a lifetime with them going to concerts in both Melbourne and Sydney,’ she told the Courier Mail.
A GoFundMe page was set up on Friday to arrange funds for the family, with almost $12,000 raised so far with a target of $20,000.

‘Funds will be used to function in this challenging time.’
NSW Police said in a statement that a crime scene was set up as officers continue to investigate the incident.
A report will be prepared for the coroner.
