Coldplay, Oasis, BLACKPINK and More: Every Concert Scheduled for Toronto's Rogers Stadium in Summer 2025

The 50,000-capacity venue will open its doors on June 29, kicking off with a performance from K-pop stars Stray Kids, while System of a Down and Hozier will also take the stage in its inaugural season.

Toronto's new Rogers Stadium has set its opening date. The venue will open its doors June 29, 2025.

The venture from Live Nation and Northcrest Developments, announced last fall, will serve as a key touring stop for some of the world's biggest acts.


With a 50,000 capacity, it boosts Toronto's ability to welcome major international acts — the stadium was inspired by a superstar act that might have otherwise skipped the city (most likely Oasis).

Toronto already has a stadium, Rogers Centre. But as Live Nation Canada's Erik Hoffman told Billboard Canada, with the city becoming a premiere international touring stop — and as A-list tours become destination events for fans — that space and Scotiabank Arena aren't enough to meet demand. Rogers Stadium, unlike Rogers Centre and Scotiabank, will be one of the few venues of its size in the world that doesn't serve a professional sports team, dedicated solely to music.

Rogers Stadium has a short lifespan — following its five-year timeline, it will be turned into residential communities.

Until then, the Stadium plans to host 12-15 shows per year, and now it's revealed its first slate. In addition to previously announced performers Oasis, K-pop groups Stray Kids and BLACKPINK will help break in the stadium, as will Irish singer Hozier, Armenian rockers System of a Down, and Coldplay, who will perform a whopping four dates.

The stadium opens its doors on June 29 and its first season will run until September 10. Find the full schedule below and tickets here.

Quebec to Impose Quotas For French-Language Content On Streaming Platforms

Bill 109 could impose big changes for streaming services to improve the discoverability of French-language content in Quebec.

Quebec may soon be getting stricter language regulations on streaming services.

Quebec Culture Minister Mathieu Lacombe tabled a new bill on Wednesday (May 21) that aims to add more French-language content to major streaming platforms, as well as increasing its discoverability and accessibility by establishing quotas. The bill will directly impact platforms that offer media content such as music, TV, video and audiobooks, including giants like Netflix and Spotify.
