Melanie Martinez is a musical force that cannot be stopped. It seems with each tour she gets bigger and bigger. From being a contestant on season 3 of the acclaimed singing show, The Voice to selling out major arenas on her recent Trilogy Tour, Martinez is a force to be reconned with. I had the opportunity to see Melanie on her last stop in Utah on her Portals Tour at the Sandy Amphitheater. I was impressed with her fanbase then, but that was nothing compared to what I saw inside the Delta Center on May 18. The arena was filled with devoted fans dressed up as nymphs, fairies, and baby dolls. Glitter and sparkles were everywhere. Outside of a Taylor Swift Concert, I haven’t seen so many fans dressed up.

My niece knows that I review and photograph concerts. For at least two years, probably more, she has been telling me that I need to cover Melanie Martinez when she comes to town. Other times I’d visit her she would ask me if I knew when Melanie was going to play here. I have had my eye out for this tour for some time. I’m sure you could imagine how exciting it was to finally tell my niece that Melanie Martinez would finally be returning to Utah on her Portals Tour. Martinez has not been here since 2019. I would imagine the pandemic had something to do with that. Judging by the size and enthusiasm of the crowd at the Sandy Amphitheater, my niece wasn’t the only one excited about seeing this concert.
