Visit Seattle, the city's tourist organization, hopes the same will happen this weekend.
King County Council declared the week leading up to the concert as "Taylor Swift Week" in her honor.
Woody said he expects 144,000 Swift fans to descend on the city over the two days of concerts.
"I love Taylor Swift and she’s not coming to Canada yet,” said Katherine Archibald who is visiting Seattle from Calgary, Alberta for the concert.
In addition to the two sold out concerts, Seattle is also hosting multiple sporting events, the Bite of Seattle food festival, and the Capitol Hill Block Party music festival this weekend.
