Every couple of weeks, a new album or concert is announced, and keeping track of every artist’s presale is nearly impossible. Here’s a list of some concerts coming up that might pique your interest.
Laufey, an Icelandic singer and songwriter, released her third studio album, A Matter of Time, on August 22, 2025. She rose to fame from her song “From the Start” in 2023, which earned her a leading spot on the Billboard 200 and a Grammy for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album.
Serving as her opener for all dates, Laufey will be accompanied by Suki Waterhouse. Get those tickets quick, because her shows near Waterford are coming up! She will be in New York on October 15 and 16, and then she will head to Philadelphia on October 24. As her last stop in the Northeast, she’ll be playing in Boston on October 27.
Sabrina Carpenter started her career with many small acting roles in works such as Law & Order and Orange Is the New Black; her acting career thrived when she became Maya Hart in the Disney Channel series Girl Meets World. But, she later found fame in music with her first EP, Can’t Blame a Girl for Trying, and 7 studio albums, including the two most recent and famous albums, Short n’ Sweet and Man’s Best Friend. She earned herself two Grammy Awards in 2025 for Best Pop Vocal Album for Short n’ Sweet and Best Pop Solo Performance for her single, “Espresso”.
Sabrina is coming back with another extended leg of her Short n’ Sweet Tour, which will start on October 23. She’ll be only a couple of hours away in Pittsburgh on October 23 and 24. Opening night of the new leg is sure to be full of surprises as she has not returned to the Short n’ Sweet tour since the release of her new album, Man’s Best Friend. She’ll be visiting New York City for quite some time as she is playing 5 shows on October 26, 28, 29, 31, and November 1.
Billie Eilish started her unofficial career at just 13 years old when she and her brother, Finneas, uploaded “Ocean Eyes” in November of 2015 on SoundCloud. She continues to take over charts by force with her recent album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, and still works with her brother, Finneas, who also has a solo career and is in a band, The Favors.
The second leg of the Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour began on October 9, 2025, in Miami with special guest Tom Odell as her opener for the first three shows. The second opener is Young Miko, who will join Billie for shows in Orlando, Raleigh, Charlotte, Philadelphia, and Long Island. Billie is making two stops near Waterford in Philadelphia on October 23 and Long Island on October 25 and 26.
Sophomore Evaline Rush is a Billie Eilish enthusiast, having attended two shows with plans to see a third on October 23 in Philadelphia. She says her favorite Billie song is “My Strange Addiction” and her favorite part of her past two shows was the B Stage performance of “Guess”.
Lorde, a singer and songwriter from New Zealand, released her fourth studio album, Virgin, on June 27, 2025. She debuted her music career with her EP, The Love Club, in November 2012 and released her debut album, Pure Heroin, almost a year later on September 27, 2013. Her song, “Royals”, went viral in 2013, soon after her first EP release, and won her Best Pop Solo Performance and Song of the Year at the 2014 Grammy Awards.
The Ultrasound World Tour is the ongoing fourth headlining tour by Lorde in support of her fourth studio album, Virgin. The tour has a rotating group of artists accompanying her as openers for the Ultrasound Tour; the most popular of her openers are The Japanese House and Blood Orange. She was in the North East area in September, but will be coming back around on extended dates in Brooklyn, New York, on December 16 and 17.
Sophomore Arianna Hermoza is attending both the Laufey A Matter of Time Tour and the Lorde Ultrasound Tour later this year. She expressed that her excitement for Laufey was primarily “because it’s my first concert and I get to visit New York for it”. She then stated she was excited about Lorde differently because “it seems more hype, and I can scream, sing, and dance more than at Laufey since it’s kind of chill”. Another reason she is excited about the Lorde concert is specifically because of the song “Ribs”. This song touches on core memories and friendship, which she is excited to see live with two of her best friends.
A childhood classic, Lady Gaga, is still topping charts after nearly two decades in the music industry. She released her debut album, The Fame, on August 19, 2008, which included successful singles such as “Just Dance” and “Poker Face”. She now has 7 solo studio albums, the latest being Mayhem, and two collaborative studio albums with Tony Bennett.
Mayhem Ball is everything and more than what is expected from the title. Lindsay Zoladz of The New York Times describes the show as “a crowning moment” in Gaga’s career, and this live performance may be “the peak of her powers”. She will be coming back around to New York City on March 19 and 20, 2026. Then, she headed to Boston on March 29 and 30, 2026. She will conclude her tour with the final stop being a third loop around to New York City on April 13, 2026, and from the reviews, it seems like an opportunity a Gaga fan just couldn’t pass up.
