AURORA

Last night we saw Aurora live at MGM Music Hall. She is an absolute force of nature. I have been to somewhere between 250-300 concerts in my 48 years on this planet. This was the 2nd greatest live show I have ever seen. Behind only Pink Floyd at Ohio Stadium in 1995. Aurora was worth every penny spent. She not only is the total package with voice, stage presence, personality and physicality, but she performed non-stop for an hour and 45 minutes. I can't stress this enough. If you have the opportunity to see her in person do miss out. The lighting and SFX were also incredible. Words just can't do this show justice. She is angelic and you can't take your eyes off of her.

Aurora and her band were AMAZING! What a voice and show, I can only hope to see her again! The loss of a star though was for the venue. WAMU was not very ADA-friendly. You get put onto platforms that are far away from the stage and that are maybe a little over 1 foot off the ground. People would lean up against the platform railing and make it nearly impossible for seated ADA folk to see, and since security was doing little crowd control, my friend and I could only see bits and pieces of the show… 😔

Uma experiência única que certamente mudou minha vida e me fez sentir coisas que jamais senti. Definitivamente libertador, encantador, mágico e marcante. Ouvir a voz majestosa dela, ter ela ali reúne muitas pessoas com bons propósitos e por mais que haja quem não conheça algumas músicas, certamente sentiram-se tocados e comovidos. Com relação a organização do espaço, inicialmente não avalio como 100% positiva, as filas estavam muito desorganizadas e teve pouca orientação para as pessoas que não estavam na pista. Ainda assim, o lugar em seu interior é bem gerenciado e não houve conflitos ou mal entendidos que possam ter acabado com a experiência. AMEEIII!!!

OUTSTANDING! I have been going to gigs for over 25 years so have seen a lot of live performances but this was one of the absolute best! I’m not sure if it was Aurora, or the venue, or the audience - or all three that just came together in such a perfect combination to make it a concert I will never forget!

Aurora, her band and visuals were again, absolutely amazing. I saw her 4 times in Paradiso and now she played in AFAS live. I absolute became so frustrated that only the first +- 40 people could see her. All the people around me including myself were struggling to see a bit of Aurora herself. The ground has no elevation. So when your not one of the very VERY first to enter, you won't see anything of the show. Aurora is my all-time favorite artist. I was very disappointed and sad during and after.

Aurora is such an incredible experience live. This was the first time she played in such a big venue (Afas) in the Netherlands, previously she's only performed in Paradiso. She had a fantastic show, and the venue was used very well, but what's really special about her is when she talks to and engages the audience, it's always so personal and so funny. It really makes each individual show different and I'd totally go to another show in this same tour. If you're at all a fan of her or her music, absolutely go visit a show.

Absolutely beautiful. Also doubled as a comedy show. She’s was so kind to the crowd and magnificent to watch. I would have left empty handed if it wasn’t for the people handing out the posters who stopped me in the hectic crowd at the exit. It was a beautiful night and everyone was so nice. I saw her live again at The Hyde park with Duran Duran and she was just as wonderful there too. I would definitely recommend.

This concert was absolutely amazing! Aurora is a wonderful human, so gentle and welcoming... there was a magic atmosphere, a unique vibe, and I felt home among hundreds of people. The energy she spread is something indescribable! The venue was nice too, spacious and easy to reach, the sound and lights were super cool and the staff was very kind. Thank you so so much!

The experience to be in her presence and hear her sing is more mezmerising and idyllic than anything I have ever experienced, and probably will ever experience in my life. The energy she brings to the audience whether it be a slow song or a fast song, is so incredibly powerful. Even though there were some incidents of power outages, she managed to humor the audience with her peculiar but incredibly sweet personality! She is finally starting to get the recognition she deserves and it is highly recommended to go to one of her shows, because she/her songs are truly captivating, no matter age, gender, sexuality, belief etc, she brings joy and positivity to any community. I personally have been a fan (warrior/weirdo) for six years, so going to one of her shows has definitely been long awaited, but, to say the least, she definitely did not disappoint!

Absolutely incredible performance by Aurora and her whole band. Despite being in my mid 30s, this was my first pop concert. Aurora’s vocal clarity, consistency and power were the best of any concert I can remember. The backup singer was fantastic as were all the members off the band. Aurora was also the most conversational and genuine performer I’ve seen, taking time to share her beliefs, humorous personal anecdotes and to express gratitude to the audience for their support. The audience was the most eclectic crowd I’ve ever seen at a concert and quite respectful and kind. I’d love to see Aurora perform again.

I really have enjoyed listening to Aurora on YouTube and had fairly high expectations for the show. She seemed tired (end of the tour) and it just didn't have the energy level I was hoping for. Was kinda bored in the beginning. I think she was ready to end the tour and just wanted to get through the set. I'm glad I went but was a little disappointed. I doubt I would go see her again.

My first time seeing Aurora and my first concert since the pandemic started. Honestly one of the best concerts I've been to. Aurora is so authentic as a performer and a person. She told us funny stories and anecdotes between songs and even paused the show at one point when someone fainted (it was pretty hot in the venue as packed as it was). She reassured the person who had fainted that it was okay (which it was, it happens) and made sure they were taken care of before resuming the show. I wish I could relive this night. One of ehe best of my life! Thank you, Aurora!

The most amazing experience I have ever had!!! The light show was spectacular! The sound was exquisite! And Aurora herself was so perfect in every way I can think of!! I wish I could go back in time to relive the joy and excitement from this concert! I can't wait for more concerts!

Aurora was incredible as as always! Met a lot of amazing people in the line and had a great time with everyone. The only downside was they let 21+ in the venue first, so some of us who were waiting in line for hours got in after people who got there at 7 simply because they were older. I was lucky enough to get to the front anyways but that really wasn’t fair.

Incredible show, I've known aurora's music for a while now and I'd seen a few interviews but not many this is to say she has got a fantastic personality, she had me crying and laughing throughout the entire show. Her energy was magical and damn her voice? She's so soft spoken but a very powerful singing voice. It's was a great night

i am overwhelmed with emotions ✨ i’ve dreamed of this day for almost three years so it was an absolute dream come true. i have never felt this strongly and this deeply about any artist. words cannot describe how aurora makes me feel with her music and her spirit. thank you for this magical night. thank you. thank you. thank you. ❤️

Talos, the opening band, was a phenomenal surprise. Tonally gigantic, ethereal and rhythmically militarized in performance. A force of nature. My expectations for AURORA were quite high having read and heard many reviews from people who had seen her live. She went above and beyond those expectations. Her stage presence and connection with the audience reminded me of Bruce Springsteen and Gord Downie - an infinite source of unpredictable energy and authentic appreciation for the artform and the audience. Her storytelling was heartwarming, humourous and captivating. The reworked arrangements of Murder Song and It Happened Quiet were brilliant and refreshing. Not just your typical scaled down/acoustic versions that can come to be expected from most live acts with a following. The new songs In Bottles and The Seed were a welcome surprise and gave glimpses into the dark Nordic native music we know AURORA has a passion for. I desperately hope to hear more of those elements on the follow-up to Infections. The two part encore consisted of Infections of a Different Kind and Queendom. The former was a flawless piano and vocal performance that could easily go down as one of the best live performances of music to be heard. The latter was a triumphant thank you and rally cry to the fans and was a perfect send off for the evening. The camaraderie between Aurora and her band (Magnus, Fredrik, Sinja and Shaun) felt like a rocketship that left Earth's atmosphere when the show finally concluded. Despite being sick (which had no impact on her vocal abilities) Aurora came to meet what few fans stood for nearly 2 hours in the cold after the show to continue to give their thanks. She was so appreciative and kind and took the time to greet and thank everyone who came to say goodnight.

The performance and venue was phenomenal. Everything was great. The only complaint was the crowd being slightly rude but that is nothing anyone can control. I would absolutely come back for other events if I lived closer. The bar was well stocked and the people working were very pleasant and efficient. The concert was well planned and I was not once disappointed. Talos and Aurora did wonderfully.

This has been the most magical night of my life. Not only did it feel like a dream but I feel as if my whole life has been changed. As a music lover I am greatly affected by artists emotions when singing and the whole time I felt loved and accepted by aurora and the crowd. The venue was simply breath taking as was the performance. This night has truly made my dreams come true. 🌊🦕🌎

she was literally the sweetest. me and my friend were waiting outside for her (since the venue was general admission) she came by and talked to us and took pictures with us and told us she would be back. she went down the street and bought us snacks and asked us if we needed water or anything and she was just the sweetest person. she puts on a show that literally leaves you speechless. i can not say enough good things about her.
