This summer has been packed with venue after venue being booked for tours. Many of which will be making their way to Los Angeles in the fall including Taylor Swift and Beyoncé. Here are some of the most notable tours making their way into the city.
The Eras Tour
Breaking yet another record with the most number 1 albums in history by a woman after Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), Taylor Swift is sailing smoothly towards the end of the U.S. leg of the infamous Eras Tour.
Swift added three additional shows in Los Angeles making it six total nights she will be spending at SoFi Stadium. She will be performing from August 3 through 5 and 7 through 9. Additional sales for the added dates were released earlier this summer and have now sold out.
But not to fret, many on TikTok have shown their success in getting tickets the night before or morning of the shows so there is still hope for Swifties that have not secured a ticket yet. The three and a half hour show takes the audience through the entire discography in “eras” and Swift picks two surprise songs every show to perform live for one night only.
The Renaissance World Tour
Beyoncé is also touring this summer in an all stadium tour across the country and world. Following her seventh studio album, “Renaissance,” this is the first time Beyoncé performs solo since her Formation World Tour back in 2016.
The highly anticipated performer will make her way to Los Angeles for three shows from September 1, 2 and 4 at SoFi Stadium. To follow updates of the tour, follow https://tour.beyonce.com as each city highlights a different aspect of the tour filled with great music, costumes and choreography.
Snow Hard Feelings
Broadway singer, Renee Rapp, has been making waves since releasing her EP, “Everything to Everyone” back in 2022 with hits like “Too Well.” Now onto her second album “Snow Angel,” Rapp is set to start touring right away.
She has sold out her Greek Theater show on September 30 in Los Angeles but will be playing two shows near the city around the same time; one in San Diego on September 25 and Oakland on October 2. One of the most notable things about Rapp from her last tour is her connection to fans because she is only 23 and relates to the young adult fanbase, so this tour is set to have some fun moments to remember.
The tour
The trio, boygenius, has been touring the U.S. all summer with bandmate, Phoebe Bridgers, joining Taylor Swift on a leg of her tour. Most recently, boygenius, which is made up of Bridgers, Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus, announced they will be at the Hollywood Bowl for one night only, on Halloween.
Their most recent album, “The record,” made waves with songs like “Not Strong Enough” which will surely be a once in a lifetime experience to hear at the Bowl. The group is also known for dressing up during performances so be sure to plan some cool Halloween costumes for this one night event.
Don’t Stare at the Sun
An all too familiar face to the USC community will be going on tour this summer to promote his new album “Sunburn.”
Dominic Fike performed at USC for the annual Springfest concert back in 2022 at the Coliseum. The Euphoria star just released his new album and is heading to the Greek Theatre on August 8 and 9. Tickets are still available for sale.
There are many more concerts that are already set to make their way to the city of angels; and, some that are yet to be announced, including the highly anticipated tour of Olivia Rodrigo’s sophomore album. Stay tuned for more concert coverage in Los Angeles and to see what other artists will be making a pitstop.
