If you haven’t finished your Christmas shopping yet or have room under your tree for just one more wrapped present, a ticket to one of these 2025 must-see concerts would be a great gift option.
I don’t know about you, but I love going to concerts, especially if I splurge on good seats. Concert tickets are always a great gift idea, and the must-see concert list in 2025 is huge, so why not go ahead and buy seats now before they’re overpriced or sold out? Do I need to remind you about the Taylor Swift Eras Tour concert price debacle? I can show you how much I paid for floor seats to see the Eras Tour in Miami, but you’ll probably think I’m crazy.
Here is a list of the ten must-see concerts for 2025.
1. Kendrick Lamar
Kendrick Lamar just had one of his best years ever, so it’s a no brainer that his tour is one of the most popular concerts to catch next year. The 37-year old rapper was picked to headline the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show, swept the BET Hip Hop Awards by winning eight awards, including “Hip Hop Artist of the Year,” and has started planning a massive tour, slated to kickoff in early 2025.
Lamar’s Grand National Tour begins in Minnesota on April 19. Solána Imani Rowe, known by fans as Sza, is touring alongside him. While it’s promising to be an amazing show, seats in some cities are getting pricey, so you might want to act fast if you want to attend this one. As of this writing, you can still grab upper level seats to the East Rutherford, New Jersey show for as little as $164.

2. Usher
Who doesn’t love Usher? The “You Got it Bad” singer is currently embarking on his Past Present and Future Tour, and it’s on the must-see concert list for 2025. Due to high demand, the R&B singer has extended the tour several times. “Ya’ll not playing games,” Usher wrote on X earlier this year, after he was forced to add another show to the tour’s London calendar due to high demand.

And that’s not all he’s got lined up in 2025. He’s also slated to headline Coachella 2025 alongside Lady Gaga and Green Day.
