There are still many legendary performers on the stage who have been performing for 30-40 years and more, and they are not going to stop in 2024.

Bruce Springsteen and his E Street Band completed a 2023 tour but are expected to be on the road again in 2024 because of increased public demand. Each night they have a different setlist, which is an extreme delight for fans with lots of songs that are not frequently played and hits. I expect them to sell out the stadium just as they did last season. However, Robert Plant, ex-frontman of Led Zeppelin, revealed several festival dates in 2024 and some locations while continuing to tour in support of his new solo record. Based on his performance on stage, Plant does not show any signs of relenting as he continues to be an excellent performer.

Another pop diva who always goes on touring is Beyonce; her concerts are always sold out owing to her excellent singing, energetic dance moves, and non-stop dancing music.
On the other hand, Harry Styles has become one of the most sought-after touring artists due to his popularity and his dancing skills, reminiscent of the great Mick Jagger.

Accompany tours with a full band, reinterpreting new wave pop songs as rock songs on stage.
HipHop Stars Returning
As for hip-hop fans, people are happy that Jay Z will finally tour after years of inactivity in celebration of the 25th anniversary of his album Reasonable Doubt. However, as he is very careful with tours, his performances become great spectacles due to the number of hits.
Kendrick Lamar who ruled the 2022 festival season now announces the Big Steppers Tour 2024. His live performances are few and he manages to infuse political and social themes in his songs, some great tunes, and beautiful music. Two more rap innovators, Travis Scott and Tyler the Creator, are two more rap innovators who will embark on huge tours in 2024. They are both dreamers who use symbolic set design and objects. Their shows are like traveling fairs with sideshows.
On the other hand, the world’s famous singer Drake came out to affirm his Would You Like a Tour? Being conducted across North America this year, then continuing across Australia, Asia, and Europe.

Some of the expected performances include those by the old guard acts that continue to dominate the festival scene such as My Morning Jacket and Dave Matthews Band as well as the new kids on the block such as BabyKeem. Expect more festivals from Paul McCartney, the ex-Beatles, as he continues to tour to promote Egypt Station, playing the same show of 35 Beatles, Wings, and solo tunes which lasts about three hours.
The traditional rock festival Lollapalooza will also be celebrated again in the following year, 2024. Last year’s edition included everyone from Metallica, Lil Baby, Green Day, and so on. No 2024 lineup is confirmed yet, but more of the same is expected, including more genre-tinged legends.
Plenty More Tours
The list above still does not list all the 2024 tour music fans are looking forward to. Billie Eilish will go on another tour to promote her new album, featuring elaborate sets and fun rock-n-roll performances all across North America and Europe. Red Hot Chili Peppers concerts may be filled with obscure album tracks and dance floor favorites purely due to the band’s endless stamina.
At the same time, there is still a generation of so-called ‘traditional’ bands such as Journey, Def Leppard, and The Doobie Brothers preparing to go on yet another large co-headline stadium tour throughout the summer. The lovers of Latin music are excited to watch Bad Bunny on his El ltimo Tour Del Mundo during the US stadiums’ tour.
