John Legend

John Legend is heading to Utilita Arena Birmingham in May 2025!

Multi-platinum, 13-time Grammy Award-winner John Legend has announced the “Get Lifted 20th Anniversary World Tour,” bringing his acclaimed debut album back to the stage.

Backed by his full band, Legend's “Get Lifted 20th Anniversary World Tour” will showcase a set list celebrating the entirety of Get Lifted, which garnered eight nominations and won three Grammy Awards at the 48th Annual Grammy Awards, including Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for "Ordinary People," Best R&B Album for Get Lifted, and Best New Artist. Each night, Legend will deliver a mix of deep cuts, fan favorites, and fresh renditions of the album's beloved tracks like the Grammy-winning "Ordinary People" (his breakout hit that reached the Billboard Top 40 and the UK R&B Singles chart), "Used to Love U," "Number One," and "So High." In addition to honoring Get Lifted, the live show will feature Legend’s other career-spanning hits, showcasing the musical depth and storytelling that have been hallmarks of his artistry for the past two decades.
