That doesn't mean he's hanging up his microphone any time soon, and just a couple of weeks later the Piano Man will play a city he's never played before when he takes to the stage in Cardiff.

Billy's last trip to the UK came in the summer just gone, when he topped the bill at the annual BST Hyde Park event.

At the show he performed an era-straddling set of hits, including 'She's Always A Woman', 'Piano Man' , 'New York State of Mind', 'The Longest Time' and 'We Didn't Start The Fire'.

He was joined by special guest Joe Jonas for 'Uptown Girl' , just the latest in a stream of major stars to duet with Billy on the road.

"I don't get to come here that much," Billy told the crowd. "And I'm not sure when this old ass is going to be back again."

Other special guests to feature at Joel's shows in recent years have included Kevin Bacon , Olivia Rodrigo and The Goo Goo Dolls’ John Rzeznik.

While he has continued to tour solidly in recent decades – including that remarkable Madison Square Garden residency – Joel's last solo album was 1993's River of Dreams , released 30 years ago.

One of the most popular recording artists and respected entertainers in history, Billy Joel will be performing a one-off show at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Friday 9 August 2024, joined by special guest Chris Isaak. This incredibly special show will be Billy Joel’s first in Cardiff and his only European performance in 2024

Tickets go on sale on Friday 15 December at 10am and presale registration is now open via AEGPRESENTS.CO.UK

New York’s quintessential son is one of the greatest musicians of our time. Joel’s songs have acted as personal and cultural touchstones for millions of people across five decades. Joel’s string of 33 Top 40 hits, all of which Joel has written himself, began with 1973’s autobiographical ‘ Piano Man ’. Written while Joel was playing in a Los Angeles lounge. In 2016, the Library of Congress selected ‘Piano Man’ for preservation in the National Recording Registry for its ‘cultural, historic and artistic significance’. The hits have continued for almost five decades, with three of Joel’s Top 40 songs – ‘ It’s Still Rock and Roll To Me ’, ‘ Tell Her About It ’ and ‘ We Didn’t Start The Fire ’ – peaking at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 charts and 23 Grammy nominations awarded to Joel since he signed his first recording contract in 1972.

Joel is one of the most engaging and best-selling live performers of our time, with songs like ‘ Uptown Girl ’, ‘ Just The Way You Are ’, ‘ The Longest Time ’ and ‘ Vienna ’ – amongst countless others. He began Madison Square Garden’s first-ever music franchise in January 2014 that continues to this day, performing one show at The Garden each month. Joel’s record-breaking residency will end in July 2024 , a little more than 10 years after it first began, marking Joel’s 150 th lifetime show which have all sold out at the venue. Joel’s MSG shows have redefined the concept of residency; the scope and ambition of Joel’s residency, where he has played once a month at Madison Square Garden, is unprecedented.

The long list of accolades awarded to Joel across his career is testament to the revere given to him by fans, critics and fellow musicians alike. Joel was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame by his idol Ray Charles in 1999 – Joel has received the RIAA’s Diamond Award twice for Greatest Hits Volume I & Volume II and The Stranger, presented for albums that have sold over 10 million copies, He is the recipient of six GRAMMY® Awards, including the prestigious Grammy Legend Award,  Joel has been inducted into the Songwriter’s Hall of Fame including the prestigious Johnny Mercer Award; and he was inducted by Barack and Michelle Obama at the 36th Annual Kennedy Center Honor;  and he received a TONY AWARD for “Movin’ Out,” a Broadway musical based on Joel’s music.

Billy Joel at Principality Stadium in Cardiff is the only chance to see the star performer live in Europe next year and follows his sold out 2023 UK date at BST Hyde Park, which saw Joel receive a glowing critical reception across the board, including The Telegraph’s 4 star review calling his show “ a jubilant singalong. ”

Billy will be joined by special guest Chris Isaak. Over the course of his nearly forty-year career, Platinum-selling and GRAMMY-nominated singer & actor Chris Isaak has performed to sold-out crowds across the globe with his longtime band Silvertone. His music and film credits include thirteen critically acclaimed studio albums, twelve chart-topping singles along with several motion pictures, such as The Silence of the Lambs and That Thing You Do!. His work has also taken him behind the scenes, creating music for multiple film soundtracks, including Eyes Wide Shut, True Romance, Wild at Heart, and Blue Velvet. Isaak has starred in his own critically acclaimed television series The Chris Isaak Show on SHOWTIME, has previously served as a judge on The X Factor Australia, and hosted the music talk show, The Chris Isaak Hour on BIO. 2019 marked the 30th Anniversary of Isaak’s beloved Heart-Shaped World album, which includes his breakthrough classic “Wicked Game”. Newly released Everybody Knows It’s Christmas is Isaak’s second career Christmas album and features 13 tracks of originals and covers. Isaak was recently honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award for Performance by the Americana Honors.

Billy Joel, born William Martin "Billy" Joel is an American pianist, singer-songwriter, and composer, born on May 9th 1949 in New York, America.

Billy was born into a musical family, his Father being a pianist encouraged him to learn the piano at an early age and was taught by American pianist Morton Estrin and musician Timothy Ford.

The New York born musician decided to pursue a music career after being inspired by The Beatles. He went on to find a group named 'The Echoes' who were similar to The Beatles and specialised in British Invasion covers. The band started to record in studios in 1965, but Billy was unfortunately kicked out of the band as he refused to wear the matching outfits worn by the other members. However, Billy went on to play the piano solo for various productions and recordings.

Eventually he recorded his first solo studio album, released in 1971, named "Cold Spring Harbour". This was not as successful as he had hope however, and later signed with Columbia and released another album with them in 1973, named "Piano Man".

Finally a breakthrough for the talented pianist, since the release of his first hit song, "Piano Man", Billy Joel famously became the 6th best selling recording artist and the third best-selling solo artist in America.

He has impressively been included into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Long Island Music Hall of Fame in his music career.

Live reviews

Billy Joel is a legendary singer-songwriter and pianist. Since the release his 1973 hit, ‘Piano Man’, Billy Joel has become the USA’s sixth best-selling recording ever. He is currently performing monthly shows at New York’s Madison Square Gardens. These sell-out shows are grand affairs.

As expected, each gig is a sell-out. Each month the crowd gathers, bursting with anticipation. As Billy Joel takes to the piano, a deafening roar of yells, whoops and claps erupts. Despite undertaking a musical residency, Billy is careful to avoid repetition. The set list changes each month and the songwriter freely and spontaneously speaks to the audience between numbers.

April’s set opened with ‘Miami 2017.’ Always a showman, Billy began with a true crowd-pleaser. This track showcased the singer’s powerful and near-faultless vocals, setting the scene for the rest of the evening. This month’s crafted set list demonstrated Billy’s intricate understanding of what makes a good a show. The performer guided his audience through a mixture of old classics, new compositions and inventive covers. Indeed, reflecting on his long career and progressing years, Billy gave an apt rendition of The Beatles' ‘When I'm Sixty-Four.’ The concert finished on a high. The whole crowd exuberantly sang along to ‘Only the Good Die Young’ and were treated to Mark Rivera’s ever-brilliant sax playing.

Report as inappropriate

The atmosphere was electric from the start. The man himself was just amazing. So much energy and humour coupled with a keen insight can't begin to describe the performance from this 70 year old gentleman.

His voice has aged and mellowed to a way that really enhances his songs.

He played a good variety of music spanning all of his long career. From his 80s classics to some of the lesser played, but brilliant deeper music from the late 70s.

When he played the his signature song, Piano Man, you could hear it all the way to Scotland. It was out of this world.

The band were simply brilliant. They are so talented that when one of his group stood up and sang 'Nessun Dorma', you could of heard a pin drop in Wembley Stadium. The resulting applause was like thunder that just rolled on and on.

A really fantastic night out that I will remember for the rest of my life.

The Billy Joel concert 6-2-18 was one truly fabulous show! Loved every minute of it he is ab awesome entertainer and so talented along with the rest of his band, so many talented people on one stage. He keeps it real and gives the crowd what they want with song choices and true life facts!! Everyone in attendance tonight got the please of seeing him perform with his daughter Alexa Ray who is beautiful and talented We also had the pleasure of seeing his ex Christie Brinkley (Alexa's mom) singing Uptown Girl on the jumbo screen!!! When they came back out for the on-core the house was truly rockin' everyone was up on their feet singing and dancing. It is no wonder that he sells out each performance, now in year number five, I will most certainly be at another one of his concerts!!! Love, love, love this concert, don't miss if you ever have the chance to go!!!

There's not much else that can be said about Billy Joel that hasn't already been written. Once again he wowed the fans in Philly, only new thing to add was that this particular night he was also celebrating the birth of his second daughter so he threw out cigars to the crowd! Our beloved Philly Phanactic was even in attendance rockin to the tunes. Although he stopped writing new songs it doesn't seem to matter to his audience. The kids of today still love his music as do us that have been following him for many decades.

My particular favorite of the night was/is when he sang "Goodnight Saigon". My chest vibrates every time I hear the chopper blades leading into the song & then at the conclusion when our Vets take the stage my heart soars with love & gratitude. We all start chanting USA, USA.... need I say more?

All I can add is I that I loved every bit of it!

The concert was amazing. Billy is truly the entertainer! He told a complex story of his life by singing a variety of songs, both his own and other performers'. All the musicians on the stage were fantastic. They could play multiple instruments, sing and entertain to the max. Billy was unbelievable! So full of energy and so talented. I loved this concert.

Some of the people around me got frustrated when he performed other artists' songs. They shouted out that Billy had so many of his own hits that he should use the time to perform his own songs. I felt pleased and happily surprised to be allowed to experience Billy performing so many different genres of music, so I didn't share their frustration. It should be noted that he did perform lots of his greatest hits, more and more towards the end of the concert.

All in all the concert was a wonderful experience.

The show started almost 1/2 hour late, but Billy Joel did not disappoint. The concert went over 2 hours playing to a packed house. Between 20-25 original BJ tunes were performed with a few others we all know and love to sing along with. His daughter Alexa Rae joined him on stage for “Baby Grand” which was nice to see. Each song highlighted the various band members and they were introduced accordingly; all are great musicians and vocalists. We all sang along to Piano Man, his last song of the night. After chanting for an encore, the band came back and played an additional 3 songs capping it off with Billy Joel placing a turkey hat upon his head while belting out “You may be right, I may be crazy...” interjecting a small part of Led Zepplin’s Rock n Roll into the song.

Billy ‘s mantra after many of his tunes: And then we got divorced. Lol.

With the exception of 20 minutes of manure or sewage smell this was an epic night

Got down around 4:30

Got great parking (1st spot two sides protected)

Snagged the last outdoor patio seating at the Hard Rock Cafe

Had onion rings to share, a Waldorf salad and Salmon to share and people watched till it was time to go to the concert

THE SEATS WERE

The concert was amazing

The acoustics were amazing

His voice was 95% of him in his prime

The song set was great and he offered the audience a choose of two songs on about 4 songs and the audience voted with there cheers

At the end of the concert it was slow getting to the car but I threaded thru traffic to a bathroom for Karen as the lineups for women were terrible

Billy was simply stunning and laid on a 2 1/2 hour spectacle that tops anything I've seen. He combined his classics with great banter and interplay with the audience.

From his meandering off into hard days night, through in the jungle and land of hope and glory. He supported his long term roadie through a great rendition of highway to hell and backing vocalist beautifully delivered nessum dorma to the crowds delight.

A night to remember from a true legend, so much so I'm seriously considering a trip to New York to catch the show at the garden.

Thank you Billy, you gave us the best time.

As someone who is just finishing up high school and preparing for college, hearing Vienna made me cry.

"Slow down, you crazy child

You're so ambitious for a juvenile

But then if you're so smart, then tell me

Why are you still so afraid?

Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?

You'd better cool it off before you burn it out

You've got so much to do

And only so many hours in a day"

It made me reflect more on my current mindset about life. I didn't know how much more powerful this song could be when performed live.

My Dear Mr. Joel,

Thank you for the wonderful performance! Your music means so much to me and has been for decades. I feel blessed and thankful for being able to see you. This concert was one for my life and the first time. It’s been one of my life goals to attend your concerts in Madison Square Garden but this is the first opportunity to see you. And I wasn’t about to miss you.

The concert last night was fabulous you haven’t skipped a beat the band was awesome thank you and God bless.

Billy Joel isn't sure when his "old ass" will ever be back in UK after Hyde Park show

Billy Joel surprises fans with Joe Jonas duet on 'Uptown Girl' at BST Hyde Park

By Mayer Nissim

Billy Joel wows 65,000 people in London but doesn't know when he'll next be back in the UK.

Listen to this article

Billy Joel will play at Madison Square Garden in New York for the 150th time next summer, but his visits to our shores are a little less frequent.

On Friday (July 7), the singer-songwriter wowed 65,000 fans in London when he headlined the American Express presents BST Hyde Park festival .

• Billy Joel covers Procol Harum's 'A Whiter Shade Of Pale' in tribute to Gary Brooker
• 30 massive artists who DIDN'T play Live Aid and why: Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel and more
• Listen to the Gold Hall of Fame Top 300 Live Playlist on Global Player

Joel took to the stage for a two-hour, 22-song set following supporting performances from a full bill, including Daryl Hall, Natasha Bedingfield and Rumer.

Starting the concert, Joel suggested to fans that it may be a long while yet before he returns to the UK for a live show.

"Thank you, London, England! Good to see ya," he said.

"I don't get to come here that much. And I'm not sure when this old ass is going to be back again."

Joining Billy Joel during his five-song encore was The Jonas Brothers' singer Joe Jonas, who duetted with the 74-year-old on his 1983 hit 'Uptown Girl'.

With his first new song in 17 years, a performance at the Grammy Awards and his last Madison Square Garden residency show approaching in July, Billy Joel has been unusually ubiquitous of late.

Ask him how he’s feeling after this thrust back into the spotlight and he laughs.

“A little overwhelmed. I’m not used to the whole megillah that comes with releasing a new record,” Joel says.

He’s talking about “ Turn the Lights Back On ,” the single released in January that was his first to hit the Billboard Hot 100 since 1997.

Along with those accomplishments, he’s winding down his record-setting run at Madison Square Garden , which began in January 2014 and will conclude July 25.

Even though Joel has played the storied New York arena close to 150 times in his six-decade career, his March 28 concert marked the 100 th show of his residency , a milestone commemorated onstage with pals Jerry Seinfeld and Sting.

That whole megillah is now known as "Billy Joel: The 100th – Live at Madison Square Garden," a two-hour event that will air at 9 p.m. (ET/PT) April 14 on CBS.

But even without a monthly appearance at The Garden, Joel will still continue to trot around the country, filling sold-out stadiums with his sometimes-acidic, sometimes-introspective, always-vivid anthems such as “Scenes From an Italian Restaurant,” “Pressure,” “Uptown Girl,” “My Life” and the immortal “Piano Man.”

Joel – laid back, self-deprecating and quick-witted – chatted with USA TODAY about singing with Sting , making mistakes and why he actually likes his new song.

Question: How have you felt these past few months with everything swirling around you?

Billy Joel: I forgot how much work it is. I used to do this on a regular basis: You go on the road, go back home and write, record the songs, then make the video, promote it, yadda, yadda, yadda. I hadn’t done it in so long. It’s head spinning and different from what I remember.

How was your Grammys experience? ( Joel performed “Turn the Lights Back On” and “You May Be Right” to close out the awards broadcast.)

That was a unique experience. I wasn’t a nominee, I was just there to play my song and there was a whole generation of musicians I wanted to meet.

Ed Sheeran , Taylor Swift , Olivia Rodrigo – a bunch of people I respect. I met them under completely different auspices. I just wanted to hang out.

You filmed the concert for the CBS special at the end of March. Did show 100 feel any different than the other 99?

Well, yeah because there were a bunch of cameras on stage! I’ve been playing (Madison Square Garden) since the ‘70s. The 100 just happened to be a round number and happened to coincide with a Garden show I was already doing.

What’s your history with Jerry Seinfeld, who was there for the banner-raising of your historic night?

I wasn’t aware he was going to be there until the last minute. They said, we’ll have a banner-raising thing and Jerry is gonna do it. I said, "Wow, great." He bought my old house in the Hamptons in 2000. We made a deal, no brokers, just us. He said, “How much?” and I said a number and he said, “OK.” It was really serendipitous. He’s a good guy, a fellow Long Islander. But also, Sting, he bought my apartment in New York City.

I sense a theme here.

I know. All of my real estate clients were at the show. It’s like Joel Realty.

You’re doing some stadium dates with Sting, but you also did a lot with Stevie Nicks last year and you have some with Rod Stewart this year, so what made Sting the right person to be part of this show?

I’ve known him quite a while, since he was in The Police. We became friends right away and I always admired his musicianship. We respect each other as musicians. It’s very easy for me to work with him. It doesn’t require a long rehearsal process. I hate rehearsal. I’m OK with making a mistake. A lot of the fun of it is in the spontaneity of the recovery. He and I have great bands, and if you’re working with good musicians it makes life so much easier. I’ve written songs with Sting in mind, like “Big Man on Mulberry Street,” which we do in this show.

You rarely play that song live.

It’s such a high key, but Sting has this wonderful tenor that he’s been able to maintain.

Probably from all of his yoga.

Or from that tantric stuff . He can hit those notes and nail them because it’s jazz. It was a lot of fun to do.

You also play (The Police hit) “Every Little Thing She Does is Magic” with him in this show and you came out for “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around" while on tour with Stevie. What do you enjoy about those duets?

I always enjoy mixing it up. God knows how many times I’ve done Billy Joel songs. That’s why I loved touring with Elton. I could play a lot of Elton John songs . Since we’ve been at The Garden, all kinds of people dropped in – Miley Cyrus , Paul Simon , John Fogerty , Bruce Springsteen , Olivia Rodrigo , it goes on and on. And the band gets to have fun.

Let’s talk about “Turn the Lights Back On,” specifically the video. What did you think when you were first approached with, hey, let’s use artificial intelligence to morph you into ‘70s-era Billy and then the ‘80s and ‘90s?

I was open to it . I’m not a big fan of doing videos. I don’t like them. I didn’t sign on as an actor – I’m a piano player. I’m not comfortable in front of the camera. When I’m singing, I think I look like Cary Grant and then when I see (the video) I go, oh, it’s me. (Song co-writer) Freddy Wexler had the idea, and I thought, I don’t have to be an actor, this is great.

What did you think of the final result?

I liked it. I said, "Hey, I remember that guy!" I don’t know how they do it technically, but it was fascinating. It was sort of an out of body experience, like wow, that was cool.

Has it been weird being back on the charts almost 50 years after you first did so with “Piano Man”?

It’s a totally different world. I don’t how the charts work. There’s the streaming, the lite rock, the AC, AOL, AOR, rock, urban, hits, I don’t know what it is anymore and I don’t keep up with it. But I didn’t hate the song. Back in the day I’d record a song and come back into the control room and I hear my voice. I never liked my voice and wanted to sound like someone other than me. I’ve found out that’s how a lot of recording artists think. Everyone is trying to copy Ray Charles or Mick Jagger. But my first reaction to hearing the song was, “I don’t hate it” because my normal go-to is, “Jeez, it’s me.” Now when I sing (1974's) “The Entertainer” (with the lyrics) “I won’t be here in another year if I don’t stay on the charts” and “You heard my latest record, it’s been on the radio.” Normally, I shake my head “no” when I sing those lines. Not any more.

Lloyds Bank is aiming to help Taylor Swift fans in the UK avoid a cruel summer. The bank has issued an “urgent warning” over ticket scams for the upcoming UK leg of the superstar’s Eras Tour, finding that Swifties are being “targeted by a wave of concert ticket scams flooding social media.”

The institution further estimates that industry-wide across the UK there are likely to have been at least 3,000 victims since tickets went on sale, with over £1 million ($1.25 million) lost to fraudsters so far.

More than 90% of reported cases start with fake ads or posts on Facebook, which includes Facebook Marketplace, according to Lloyds, with dozens of unofficial groups set up specifically for people looking to buy and sell tickets for Taylor Swift concerts. 

Lloyds warned, “With all UK dates now sold out, many more fans are likely to fall victim to ticket scams in the coming weeks and months, both leading up to the tour and once the concerts begin in June.”

In its research, Lloyds found that the number of reported scam cases relating to concert tickets more than doubled last summer compared to the same period a year earlier (up by 158%). Among the other major artists most commonly targeted last summer were Coldplay, Harry Styles and Beyonce.

Liz Ziegler, Fraud Prevention Director, Lloyds Bank, said, “For her legion of dedicated Swifties, the excitement is building ahead of Taylor’s Eras Tour finally touching down in the UK this summer. However, cruel fraudsters have wasted no time in targeting her most loyal fans as they rush to pick up tickets for her must-see concerts. It’s easy to let our emotions get the better of us when we find out our favorite artist is going to be performing live, but it’s important not to let those feelings cloud our judgement when trying to get hold of tickets.”

Ziegler suggested, “Buying directly from reputable, authorized platforms is the only way to guarantee you’re paying for a genuine ticket. Even then, always pay by debit or credit card for the greatest protection. If you’re being asked to pay by bank transfer, particularly from a seller you’ve found on social media, that should immediately set alarm bells ringing.”

Just a Few of the Biggest Concert Tours of 2024, from Olivia Rodrigo to Bad Bunny

Posted: April 17, 2024 | Last updated: April 17, 2024

Listening to your favorite musician at home is fun, but there's nothing quite like the experience of singing along with them, and tons of more fans, live. And as luck would have it, 2024 is shaping up to be a massive year for some of the world's top musical acts, so chances are your favorite performer might be stopping at a city near you soon.

Ahead, we rounded up some of the biggest concert tours of 2024, ranging from Taylor Swift's mega-popular Eras Tour to Drake and J. Cole's exciting It's All A Blur Tour - Big as the What?—set to kick off this winter. You can also expect tour dates from classic icons like Stevie Nicks, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, and more.

1) Taylor Swift

Undoubtedly one of the biggest concert tours ever, Taylor Swift's Eras Tour will continue right through 2024. The international leg of the tour kicked off in Japan, where she played four shows in Tokyo. She'll also stop in Melbourne, Singapore, Paris, Madrid, London, Milan, and more before returning to the States to play in the fall.

There's nothing like seeing T. Swift IRL, but don't fret if you're unable to nab tickets—the Eras Tour movie is now available to stream from the comfort of your home.

2) Olivia Rodrigo

This is not a drill—"Drivers License" singer Olivia Rodrigo will be hitting the road on tour starting at the end of February. The Guts World Tour runs from February through mid-August and has dates in Nashville, Toronto, Chicago, and New York City, among others. Even cooler? Rodrigo will have a stacked list of special guests—like PinkPantheress, Remi Wolf, The Breeders, and Chappell Roan—with her.

3) Red Hot Chili Peppers

Did you hear the good news? The Red Hot Chili Peppers have extended their global tour through summer 2024. The buzzy stadium tour, which kicked off in June 2022, will now run until July 2024 and bring the California-based band to places like Los Angeles, Tampa, Toronto, and Salt Lake City.

4) Bad Bunny

It's fitting that "Monaco" rapper Bad Bunny titled his tour Most Wanted —it's slated to be one of the year's hottest tours. Planned to help promote his latest studio album, Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana , Most Wanted will kick off in Salt Lake City on February 21 and run through May 26.

5) Billy Joel

If you haven't yet seen Billy Joel perform live, there's still time! The Piano Man has added more tour dates to his schedule, stopping in cities like Tampa, New York, Denver, and St. Louis this year. Even more exciting? He'll share the stage with fellow iconic performers Sting and Stevie Nicks for some of these dates.

Mitski recently announced that she's expanding her North American tour dates , and we couldn't be more excited. The months-long tour, which supports her 2023 studio album The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, has a long list of stops, including Miami Beach, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, and Paris.

There's nothing quite like a Madonna concert, that's for sure. The singer's Celebration Tour , which started last October, continues straight through the spring with dates in Seattle, San Francisco, Mexico City, and more. Besides her eye-catching sets, chart-topping songs, and impressive choreography, concertgoers also get a glimpse of the performer's fantastic costumes, which include looks from Versace and Jean Paul Gaultier.

8) Bleachers

The New Jersey-founded rock band, which is fronted by Jack Antonoff—known for producing albums for top acts like Taylor Swift, Lorde, and Lana Del Rey—not only has announced a new album but a new tour , too. The tour will start in the UK in March, ending fittingly in the band's home state of New Jersey in mid-June. Check out their newly released music video for "Tiny Moves" if you need a Bleachers fix in the meantime.

9) Nicki Minaj

Nicki fans rejoice: the rapper and singer might be coming to a city near you soon as part of her Pink Friday 2 World Tour. The massive tour will include performances in Brooklyn, Oakland, and Baltimore, with stops at Dreamville Festival and Rolling Loud California along the way.

10) Blink 182

Live out all of your nineties and early aughts pop-punk dreams with one of Blink 182's One More Time Tour dates. The tour, which supports the band's ninth studio album, One More Time..., will bring the trio to cities all over the globe, including Sydney, Santiago, Portland, and Boston. The tour's supporting act is Pierce the Veil, which is also worth checking out.

11) Stevie Nicks

The oh-so-magical Stevie Nicks continues her touring streak with a bunch of 2024 concert dates . Set to begin in Atlantic City, NJ on February 10, Nicks will visit a dozen cities throughout the U.S. this year, such as New Orleans, Omaha, and Chicago. "Let's keep this party going in 2024," the singer-songwriter posted on her Instagram in September to announce the newly added tour dates.

12) The 1975

The 1975 is showing no signs of slowing down. The British band, famous for hits like "Somebody Else" and "Robbers," has extended their 2023 tour through 2024. Titled Still...At Their Very Best , the 22-date tour will open in Glasgow on February 8 and conclude in Amsterdam on March 24.

13) Drake and J. Cole

Rap greats Drake and J. Cole come together for the It's All a Blur Tour – Big As the What? which is guaranteed to be a good time. Drake, fresh off his 2023 It's All a Blur tour with 21 Savage, is set to hit dozens of cities starting in February, many of which J. Cole will also be in tow for. Scoop up tickets ASAP, as Drake's shows are known to sell out.

14) Janet Jackson

Superstar Janet Jackson is also extending her 2023 tour, Together Again , into 2024 with dates in Anaheim, Austin, New Orleans, and Hartford. Even cooler? Jackson's supporting act is the 2000s southern rap legend Nelly.

15) Rolling Stones

If you've ever dreamed of seeing the Rolling Stones perform live in person, now's your chance. The iconic rockers, who released their studio album Hackney Diamonds this past fall, are returning on the road for a 16-date tour with shows throughout the United States and Canada. Concertgoers can expect a mix of new tunes and Stones classics.

16) Bruce Springsteen

Famous for countless listenable hits like "Born to Run" and "Glory Days," Bruce Springsteen is set to embark on a massive world tour this year with his band, The E Street Band. The much-anticipated tour will take the Boss and his crew to cities such as Phoenix, San Diego, Dublin, and Madrid, from March through November.

17) John Mayer

Be sure to catch John Mayer's solo tour this year, which will bring the guitarist and crooner to cities throughout Europe. This leg, an extension of his popular 2023 solo tour, will kick off in Stockholm on March 13 and finish in Dublin on March 29.

18) Shania Twain

Okay, this one is technically a residency , but we're excited nonetheless. Shania Twain, most known for her incredible outfits (her hooded leopard print look, anyone?) and hits like "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" is setting up shop in Vegas starting May 10. Twain's residency will take place at the Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood on and off throughout December 2024.

All good things must come to an end. The Eagles, known for "Hotel California" and other amazing rock songs, began their final concert tour this winter. It launched in Phoenix on January 20, with March 16 as its last date in the United States. Eagles fans won't want to miss this one.

20) Alanis Morisette: The Triple Moon Tour

Alanis Morisette joins forces with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts for their 2024 Triple Moon Tour , which has dates in North America and Canada. This tour is a great one to catch this summer, as it's slated to run from June through August.
