YouTube is making it easier for fans of live music to discover upcoming concerts. While the new concert discovery integration has been announced for YouTube Music, it’s actually rolling out first on YouTube. Through its partnership with Bandsintown, YouTube will now let users see upcoming shows directly while watching videos, Shorts, or browsing official artist channels.
The feature brings live concert listings and tour dates straight to YouTube, along with notifications for nearby shows. Later this year, it will expand to YouTube Music to show events on artist pages and the home screen.
Bandsintown users also get an exclusive bonus in the form of a free two-month trial of YouTube Premium.
Pop star Sabrina Carpenter is the featured artist for the launch of this integration. Her tour dates will now be visible to her YouTube subscribers and Bandsintown followers.
