"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."
Summer may be winding down, but the music scene is hot as ever. Typically, the warmer months are associated with outdoor concerts—but the fun doesn’t have to end just because the seasons have changed. In fact, some of the best acts of 2024 have yet to step onstage.
September marks the beginning of a new concert and festival circuit that will carry through the end of the year. There are plenty of options for all music fans, whether you’re into pop, R&B, rock, country, rap, or indie. This month marks the start of Weezer’s “Voyage to the Blue Planet Tour,” as well as Kacey Musgraves’s “Deeper Well World Tour” and Post Malone's “F-1 Trillion Tour.” Later on, Billie Eilish, Duran Duran, and Usher will embark on their own tours, too.
If you’re more of a festival type, there are plenty of options to choose from. The Outlaw Music Festival kicks things off in September, followed by the I Love RnB Festival, Riot Festival, Pilgrimage Festival, and so much more.
Here is your 2024 concert and festival guide.
