Add Page Six on GoogleDrastic new measures are being taken outside Madison Square Garden to keep Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding details under wraps.
On Wednesday morning, Page Six saw strategically placed semi-trucks outside the New York City arena, completely blocking the view to the main loading dock off 33rd Street.
It appears the delivery trucks have started backing up into the loading area to keep the unloading process more of a secret.

We were told the red truck, specifically, was dropping off lighting.
Meanwhile, we spotted workers outside other MSG entrances wrapping tall barricades with black mesh tarps.
Simultaneously, trucks began delivering artificial trees to the venue.

We saw workers unloading tree parts — including trunks, branches and leaves — and carrying them into the arena.
Page Six previously confirmed that Swift and Kelce’s wedding will feature a massive castle.
On Tuesday, while workers were transporting decor into MSG, we spotted a black garbage bag falling down to reveal two large white bannisters — which could be used for the castle setup.

The castle is reportedly being built inside a garden, which would explain the trees and the boxes we’ve seen labeled “Garden Party.”
Notably, Kelce proposed to Swift in the garden-esque backyard of his Missouri home in August 2025.
The couple’s fairytale nuptials are set to kick off Thursday with a 100-person rehearsal dinner, followed by a larger celebration Friday with 1,000 guests.

We were told the rehearsal dinner will take place inside MSG’s Infosys Theater from 6 to 10:30 p.m.
On wedding day, doors will open for guests at 3:30 p.m., with cocktail hour beginning at 4 on the sixth-floor concourse. The ceremony itself will take place at 5:30 on the arena floor, followed by the reception, which will run from 6:30 to 2 a.m.
On Tuesday, Page Six saw workers placing red panels on the stairs outside MSG to create a red carpet look; however, the panels were swiftly removed, as we were told they are supposed to be purple.

Speaking of red and purple, Tuesday’s crew wore purple wristbands, while Wednesday’s is sporting red.
The workers — who don’t know details about the event at hand — also reportedly have to go through an extra layer of security when they show up to the arena.
Additionally, staffers who work in the event production department are not allowed to have their phones on them, presumably so they can’t take pictures of the setup.

Though MSG already has a highly secure infrastructure, Swift and Kelce are stopping at nothing to ensure privacy and safety.
In fact, Page Six was told that a little over 130 cops — including both rookies and detectives from New York City precincts — will be on site as part of the pair’s special access events permit.
The police presence will reportedly cost them a hefty six-figure sum.

City Hall recently confirmed that a permit application had been filed with NYC’s Street Activity Permit Office for July 2 to July 4.
The permit, filed by Winick Productions — a prominent event planning company — requested both street closures around MSG and a large tent or canopy outside the arena.
As for who is organizing the duo’s extravaganza, we were recently told Los Angeles-based celebrity wedding planner Mark Seed — who “can build something spectacular out of nothing” — has been working on it “for months.”

We were told Seed plans to transform the famed sports and music arena — where Swift has performed numerous times — into a romantic wedding backdrop.
Notably, members of Swift’s camp have been seen at Rock Lititz, a Pennsylvania-based production campus where sets for major concerts — including the Eras Tour — are built.
The pop superstar and the Kansas City Chiefs player, both 36, have invited dozens of A-listers and athletes to their blowout bash.

Reds No. 1 Prospect Alfredo Duno Earns Major All-Star Week Honor
Reds No. 1 Prospect Alfredo Duno Earns Major All-Star Week Honor
It's the second year in a row that he will get to participate. Greg Kuffner|
In this story:
Cincinnati RedsThe Cincinnati Reds will once again have one of their top prospect on display during All-Star Week.
Reds No. 1 prospect Alfredo Duno has been named to the Futures Game roster for the second straight season. The game will be played on Sunday, July 12, at noon ET at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia and will air on NBC.
The honor comes just days after Duno earned a promotion to Double-A Chattanooga, another significant step in what has been an impressive 2026 season for the 20-year-old catcher.
MLB Pipeline recently praised Duno's overall development, writing:
“More athletic than you might think when looking at his strong 6-foot-2 frame, Duno should be able to stick behind the plate, especially if he manages his body well so he can remain agile, and the Reds were happy with his offseason work in this regard. Combine that with his plus arm strength, hard work in all aspects of his game, including learning English, and he has the makings of a big league starting backstop.”
Duno has certainly backed up the hype this season. Across 65 games, he's slashing .260/.390/.512 with 29 extra-base hits while continuing to show the offensive upside that has made him one of the top catching prospects in baseball. He's also handled a heavy workload behind the plate, catching 55 games while serving as the designated hitter in the other 10. However, his defensive production is still way behind his offense.
Sal Stewart Makes History in Tuesday's Loss to Brewers

In Tuesday's loss to the Milwaukee Brewers, Sal Stewart hit a first inning home run to put the Reds on top 1-0. Stewart's 16th home run of the season continued his historic rookie campaign. Only Hall of Famer Frank Robinson has hit more home runs as a Reds rookie through the club's first 85 games, launching 20 in 1956.
Reds manager Terry Francona praised Stewart's ability to hit after the game.
“He’s just a really good hitter. He uses the whole field. A lot of times with young guys, they want to hit for power before they learn how to hit. He knows how to hit. And he’s strong enough and a good enough hitter that he gets rewarded when he goes the other way.”
The 22-year-old is slashing .257/.342/.467 with 35 extra-base hits and 11 stolen bases for the Reds this season.
