New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said Taylor Swift paid the city more than $160,000 for an event permit and security costs tied to her July 3 wedding to Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden. Mamdani disclosed the payment at a July 10 news conference after reporters asked whether Swift would reimburse the city for the added police presence. The permit covered public resources for the event, including street closures around Midtown Manhattan and security connected to the wedding weekend.
