Wembley will mark Taylor's first show since both incidents which have no doubt been hard for her to navigate.
But a source has now told The Sun how she will be putting on the 'best show of her life' for the next five nights in London.
An insider told the publication: 'Everything Taylor does is for her fans and she will be putting on the best show of her life when she returns to Wembley.

'Hate never wins and Taylor absolutely stands for that. Her shows are about love, unity and acceptance, and this is a message she will always want to convey.'
Taylor will also reportedly be joined on stage at Wembley by pal Ed Sheeran on Thursday.
Taylor was due to perform in front of an estimated 170,000 fans on August 8, 9, and 10 at Vienna's Ernst-Happel-Stadion, which was set to be reinforced with more security measures before the three shows were cancelled.
'Taylor has been devastated by this. She is devastated for the fans who have been waiting for years to see her,' an insider told The Mirror, in the first indication of Swift's reaction following the news.
'But the thought of what could have happened if the concerts had been targeted by a terror attack is horrifying, and she would never risk the safety of her fans.
'The memory of what happened at Ariana Grande's concert in Manchester is still very vivid in everyone's minds. But she has told her team that she wants to try to return to Vienna as soon as possible in the future. She is very conscious of how disappointed her fans in Austria are.'
The hitmaker has not made any public statements since the alleged plot was uncovered.
The arrest of a third suspect was announced last week.

Police say the main suspect, a 19-year-old man, planned to attack the tens of thousands of Swifties who gathered outside the Ernst Happel Stadium, with knives and machetes.
The suspect, allegedly put together explosives as well in order to 'kill as many people as possible,' officials said.

The American singer wrote on Instagram: 'The horror of yesterday's attack in Southport is washing over me continuously and I'm just completely in shock.
'The loss of life and innocence, and the horrendous trauma inflicted on everyone who was there, the families, and first responders.
'These were just little kids at a dance class. I am at a complete loss for how to ever convey my sympathies to these families.'
A JustGiving page - set up by Taylor Swift fans - has raised thousands to help families affected by the tragedy and pay for the two funerals.
