Time Out says

Built on top of the Arroyo Seco dry riverbed, this 90,000-seat stadium has been used for World Cup finals, auditions of American Idol, a yearly fireworks show every Fourth of July and massive summer tours like U2, BTS and Beyoncé and Jay-Z. It is also, of course, home to the UCLA Bruins football team and the annual New Year’s Day NCAA Tournament of Roses game, which is preceded by the spectacular Tournament of Roses parade. On the second Sunday of each month, the bowl is home to the world’s largest flea market.

What’s on

The Weeknd

When R&B singer Abel Tesfaye released his debut mixtape, House of Balloons, in 2011, he did so hidden behind the Weeknd moniker: faceless and nameless, with no pictures, concerts or interviews. Since then, he’s made the leap from mystery-cloaked DIY buzz magnet to pro-hyped superstar drenched in drugged out psychosexual fantasy with ’80s funk basslines and a glossy pop shimmer. See him at the Rose Bowl for this in-the-round show.
  • Rap, hip-hop and R&B

AC/DC

Expect to see stiff blues riffs, pyrotechnics and the shortest shorts that longtime-guitarist Angus Young can squeeze into during this show at the Rose Bowl.

Just Like Heaven

The aughts indie nostalgia shows no signs of stopping, so its no surprise that Just Like Heaven—a music fest that’s featured basically every beloved 2000s indie band—is coming back for its fifth edition. The fest will take over the golf course next to the Rose Bowl on May 180, 2025 with a lineup that’s sure to be pulled straight from your old iPod. Though the 2025 bill is still to come, the last edition included the Postal Service, Phoenix, Death Cab for Cutie and the War on Drugs.

Oasis

Don’t look back in anger—at least not today—because you missed out on their U.K. reunion gigs: Brit-pop legends Oasis are performing a select number of stateside shows, including at the Rose Bowl.
