When it comes to live music, 2017 concert tours have some big shoes to fill, considering how epic 2016 was. For starters, a raging case of Bieber fever swept the nation with the Purpose tour.
Adele made us feel all the feels there ever were to be felt (if you could get tickets, that is).
Kanye West’s Saint Pablo tour was cool (while it lasted).
And, of course, 2016 will go down in history as the year that Beyoncé slayed all day during her Formation tour.
So, yeah, 2017 has a lot to live up to. Luckily, there’s an already impressive lineup of 2017 concert tours ready to take the year by storm. Here are all of the big shows you’re going to want to stalk StubHub for….
