Taylor Swift paid more than $160,000 to cover police overtime as part of a New York City permit required for her and Travis Kelce's wedding at Madison Square Garden, according to a press conference by Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Friday.
The payment was made to the New York Police Department to ensure security and traffic control for the event. Mayor Mamdani confirmed the amount during the press conference, stating that the billionaire covered the costs as per city regulations for large events.
Swift and Kelce, who have been dating since 2023, held their wedding at the iconic venue. The payment is part of standard procedures for events that require additional police presence.
