Swift & Kelce Wedding: NYC Mayor Dodges MSG Rumors
28 Jun
Summary
- Mayor Zohran Mamdani refused to confirm or deny Swift-Kelce wedding rumors.
- Street closures were recently permitted around Madison Square Garden.
- The couple previously preferred Rhode Island but cited security issues.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani offered a vague response when questioned about persistent rumors of a Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding at Madison Square Garden. In a preview for ABC's "This Week," Mamdani stated, "whoever is getting married in New York City, I think it's hard to beat the City Clerk's Office but many will try and soon there will be more news."
Despite the mayor's deflection, recent developments suggest the venue might be booked. The New York Times reported on June 24th that street closures were permitted around Madison Square Garden from July 2nd to July 4th for an event on July 3rd. This follows speculation that escalated after the couple's engagement in August 2025.
Sources close to the couple revealed that even guests are unaware of the exact location, only knowing they need to be in New York City on July 2nd and 3rd. This secrecy comes with a significant cost, estimated in the millions. Initially, Swift and Kelce had desired to marry in Rhode Island on June 13th, but security concerns regarding the scale of the event made it unfeasible.
