Spotify revamps its Concert Hub into something that'll be more useful. It is now called Live Events Feed and offers information and tickets for live events in your location. It'll be sourcing listings from partners like Ticketmaster, AXS, DICE, Eventbrite, and See Tickets, among other companies. Concert Hub was previously used to find at-home or studio performances, podcast recordings, and other online performances during the height of the pandemic.
The streaming service took this time to study its users' behaviours. And they found that fans would engage with artists on the platform and then leave to find concert listings or head to social media to stay notified about upcoming tour dates. Now, they're closing that loop.
If you can't see the Live Events Feed in your app, you just need to search for "live events" in the app. If an artist you're listening to has an upcoming show, the app can tell you about the event. There's even a new messaging tool that can let you know about upcoming concerts based on your listening habits. You can opt-out of this feature if you want.
