After Taylor Swift took the world by storm in 2024 with her Eras Tour, the trend of 'gig-tripping' (travelling to a different city or even country for a concert) has gone from strength to strength. 

With a host of incredible world tours, 2025 promises to be an even more memorable year for music lovers. With iconic artists like Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar heading off on sell-out tours and the legendary English rock band Oasis reuniting for a string of concerts across the globe, this year is the perfect time to embark on a gig-tripping adventure. 

From London to Los Angeles, here are a few of the finest hideaways for those who've been lucky enough to bag tickets for 2025's hottest acts.

London

Beyoncé

 

One of the most iconic music artists of all time and a 35-time Grammy Award winner, you simply can't miss Beyoncé lighting up London this year. With concert dates throughout June, it's a great excuse to enjoy a summer trip to England's capital.

 

Where to stay:

Situated on the east side of London, Compton Street allows you to enjoy all the delights of the city centre while remaining just a 40-minute drive away from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Plus, the home’s beautiful cowhide rug matches the mood of  Queen B's latest album, Cowboy Carter, perfectly setting the scene for Beyonce's tour.

Oasis

 

More of a cultural phenomenon than a band, the Oasis tour will pass through Wembley Stadium at the end of July, beginning of August and end of September.

 

Where to stay:

Located in Notting Hill, Ladbroke Grove XV is just a 30-minute drive from Wembley Stadium, allowing you to reach the concert with ease. Meanwhile, Ladbroke Grove Station is just a five-minute walk away from the home, giving you easy access to the rest of the city during your stay.

Coldplay

 

With a Coldplay concert being described as one of 'the greatest shows on earth', this band is certainly not one to miss. Luckily, Coldplay have extended their wildly successful Music Of The Spheres World Tour into 2025, playing multiple concerts at Wembley Stadium throughout the end of August and beginning of September.

 

Where to stay:

Situated a hop, skip, and a jump from Shepherd's Bush Station, Royal Crescent Mews is just a 40-minute drive away from Wembley Stadium, making it the perfect base for the Coldplay Tour. 

Paris

Lady Gaga

 

Fans won’t want to miss Mother Monster’s signature electrifying style as she heads to Paris for her MAYHEM Ball tour. The Lady Gaga concerts will be taking centre stage at the Accor Arena on the 17th, 18th, 20th & 22nd November.

 

Where to stay:

With its quirky interior design and artistic ambiance, Rue Jules Cesar Loft is the perfect base for your Lady Gaga tour getaway. Plus, the home is situated in Le Marais, meaning you can either walk to the Accor Arena in just over 20 minutes or hop in a taxi and get there in 13.

Billie Eilish

 

At just 23 years old, indie pop legend Billie Eilish has already established herself as an icon, winning nine Grammy Awards and two Oscars along the way. The Billie Eilish tour will be hitting the Accor Arena on the 10th and 11th of June - get ready for a show like no other.

 

Where to stay:

A 35-minute stroll away from the Accor Arena (or 25 minutes by Metro or taxi), Quai de Bourbon is perfectly located for those visiting for the Billie Eilish concert. Moreover, we're sure Billie herself would be a fan of this gorgeous Paris apartment's quirky and original style. 

Imagine Dragons

 

Multi-platinum and Grammy Award-winning band Imagine Dragons will be passing through Paris on their first-ever stadium tour, with two shows at the Stade de France on the 5th and 6th of July.

 

Where to stay:

Just a few minutes walk away from an RER B station, guests can enjoy effortless access to the Stade de France from the beautiful Rue Suger, making it the ideal hideaway for the Imagine Dragons Tour 2025.

Los Angeles

Kendrick Lamar and SZA

 

After joining forces for the Super Bowl halftime show, these two legends of rap and R&B are now setting off on a tour together. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, fans will not want to miss the  SZA and Kendrick Lamar concerts, taking place at the SoFi Stadium on the 21st, 23rd and 24th of May.
 

 

Where to stay:

Just a 20 minute drive away from SoFi Stadium, Lindenhurst is a convenient base for your gig-tripping getaway. Sleeping up to eight guests, and boasting a gorgeous garden and pool, this is the perfect spot for relaxing in the gorgeous Californian sunshine after a late night at the Kendrick Lamar concert.

Dua Lipa

 

If you're searching for a family-friendly gig-tripping experience, then heading to Los Angeles to see disco-pop icon Dua Lipa is a great choice. Her Radical Optimism Tour promises to be a fantastic production, featuring awe-inspiring pyrotechnics and a host of amazing dancers. The Dua Lipa tour will be live at the Kia Forum on the 4th, 5th, 7th and 8th of October - don't miss out!

 

Where to stay:

Sleeping up to eight guests and a mere 20-minute drive from the Kia Forum, Venice Gardens is certainly a top spot to base yourself for the Dua Lipa concert. What's more, with vibrant Venice Beach under a ten-minute drive away, you can enjoy effortless access to some of LA's most iconic spots.

The Weeknd

 

This will be the last tour from singer-songwriter sensation The Weeknd, marking the end of his musical career. After Hours Til Dawn will be hitting the SoFi Stadium on the 25th, 26th, 28th and 29th of June, giving you the perfect excuse for a summer trip to the City of Angels.

 

Where to stay:

If you're travelling to LA for The Weeknd tour, then Gardner Modern is an ideal base. Not only is the home a mere 25-minute drive from the stadium, but it also comes with a gorgeous pool, stunning state-of-the-art interiors and enough space for ten guests, meaning all the gang can come along to enjoy the show.
