Chicago music fans are in for a star-studded month as Katy Perry and Beyoncé bring their blockbuster tours to town this May, promising unforgettable performances from two of the biggest names in pop.
First up, Katy Perry is set to take the stage at the United Center on May 12 with her much-anticipated Lifetimes Tour. The tour supports her brand-new album 1432, and fans can expect a dazzling mix of fresh tracks and iconic hits like "Firework," "Teenage Dream," and "Roar." The concert will also feature Rebecca Black as a special guest, making the night even more exciting. With Perry recently making headlines for joining Blue Origin’s first all-female spaceflight crew, she’s set to launch more than just rockets—her live show promises to be a high-energy spectacle.
Just a few days later, Beyoncé will bring her chart-topping Cowboy Carter Tour to Soldier Field for three massive nights—May 15, 17, and 18. Backed by her Grammy-winning 2024 album Cowboy Carter, Beyoncé will blend country, rock, and soul with collaborations from greats like Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, and Stevie Wonder. Fans can expect both genre-defying new tracks and timeless anthems like "Halo" and "Formation."
Whether you’re Team Perry or Team Bey or lucky enough to catch both, Chicago is the place to be for pop royalty this month.
