Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Plan Wedding Events at Madison Square Garden

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will hold a rehearsal dinner Thursday evening and a larger celebration extending into early Saturday morning at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The rehearsal dinner is planned for roughly 100 people at the Infosys Theater inside the venue. The second event can accommodate about 1,000 guests and may continue until 4 a.m.

Swift's team secured a street activity permit from July 2 to July 4. Event planners will hire private security because police resources are already committed during the holiday weekend. A retired assistant chief of the police department who has handled security for high-profile events said the confined space of the venue will aid protection efforts.

He noted that the permits reduce the load on police and allow private teams to secure the immediate area. Managing crowds and media outside the secured zone is expected to fall to police officers.

New details have emerged about the celebration at Madison Square Garden, widely believed to be a wedding, including a dress code. The New York Times reported that the dress code for the event is expected to be black-tie.
