On May 13, 2026, Dominic Richard Harrison – more famously known as YUNGBLUD – brought the second leg of his IDOLS World Tour to the UCCU Center in Orem, Utah. This show takes the cake for the largest show he has played in Utah to date. What once began with small Utah appearances at venues like Kilby Court and the Gallivan Plaza has now evolved into a sold-out arena-sized production at the UCCU Center. Yet somehow, Yungblud still manages to make these nights feel deeply personal. So buckle up and get ready, because the ride that is a Yungblud show is one you won’t soon forget.

The crowd was filled with people of all ages dressed up like Professor Puth, complete with shirt and tie for Charlie Puth’s Whatever’s Clever tour that stopped at the Maverik Center. The sold-out show was filled with excited fans who had known him from both his older songs and newer releases, and the energy in the room was electric. Not only did the crowd love Puth, but they also fell in love with opening acts Daniel Seavey and Ally Salort.

We here at Utah Concert Review have had the opportunity to witness the relationship between the band Journey and their Utah fans. Whether it be at Utah First Amphitheatre, Stadium of Fire, Maverik Center, or where they were this April and many other nights at the Delta Center, Journey has an unshakable bond. Journey brought their “Final Frontier: A Special Evening with Journey” tour to the Delta Center on April 12. This may very well be Journey’s final stop in Utah.

Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals, joined by Jordan Moyes, sold out The Commonwealth Room in Salt Lake City on Sunday, April 19th. Upon my earlier-than-usual arrival to the show, I was surprised and grateful to secure the last parking spot in the venue’s immediate parking lot when there are typically several spots open even minutes before show time! That was an indicator of just how popular this event was among the people of Salt Lake!

Lucy Darling delivered a show that blurred the lines between magic, comedy, and character-driven theater. The Eccles Theater’s polished design and intimate seating created the perfect setting for a performer whose strength lies not just in illusion, but in personality and presence.

LANY

Reviewed and Photographed by Kevin Rolfe

LANY has developed a special relationship with the state of Utah. From their early days playing Kilby Court to multiple Delta Center stops to headlining last year’s Electric Revival Fest and everywhere in between, LANY has been a staple in the live music scene here in Utah. They even played a secret album release show at The Depot a few years back. We have had the honor of covering LANY since 2019. Every time we’ve covered them, we’ve witnessed the special bond between this band and their Utah fans.

On March 26th, 2026, Ashnikko made her stop in Salt Lake City, Utah, at the Union Event Center as part of her Smoochies tour, and it was surely a night to remember. This was not her first time in Salt Lake City, and it won’t be her last. The show was completely sold out, with people lining up since early in the morning, decked out to the nines in outfits, makeup, fun little hats, and covered in trinkets because every Ashnikko fan is most definitely a “little trinket girl.” If you know, you know.
