Chappell Roan Plays Biggest Headlining Show Yet at Brookside to Cap Mini-Tour

The Pasadena date served as a victory lap ahead of her planned break to write the next album.

Overview

  • Friday’s performance at Brookside at the Rose Bowl was the first of two Pasadena shows concluding her Visions of Damsels & Other Dangerous Things run.
  • Roan told the crowd it was the largest headlining date of her career, drawing tens of thousands across the Rose Bowl grounds.
  • The staging evoked a gothic castle and the production stayed pared back with no dancers or guests, spotlighting her vocals and band.
  • Fans arrived in her signature looks and joined the viral “Hot to Go!” routine, underscoring the tight artist–audience connection.
  • Her rise includes a Grammy for best new artist, four top-10 hits since 2024, and “Pink Pony Club” topping a billion streams after an earlier label drop, with the mini-tour keeping her profile high as Grammy nominations are decided.
