Special Act: Tarta Relena

Mitski returns to the Netherlands for her biggest shows in the country ever. The wildly popular indie pop artist will perform at AFAS Live for two consecutive evenings. These performances in the Amsterdam concert hall are the largest shows in the Netherlands to date for the American-Japanese artist, who is releasing her new album Nothing’s About to Happen to Me.

Amsterdam is one of the few cities Mitski will visit during the world tour following the release of her eighth album. Besides Amsterdam, she will also perform in cities such as Singapore, Sydney, Los Angeles, and Istanbul. The last time the 35-year-old singer-songwriter performed in the Netherlands was in 2024, playing two sold-out shows at the Royal Theater Carré in Amsterdam, which received rave reviews. Her unique performance style, which seeks musical variety and incorporates theatrical elements like lighting and choreography, creates a unique show every time. In Carré, she performed with a seven-piece band, which can also be heard on her new album.
