U2

On December 31, 2016, U2 delivered an unforgettable New Year’s Eve concert in Paris, marking a significant moment in their storied career. This performance came right after their 2014 album "Songs of Innocence" and during the ongoing promotion of its follow-up, "Songs of Experience," which would be released the following year. The Portland, Oregon band resonated deeply with a European audience, celebrating the spirit of resilience and hope, especially given Paris’s recent events surrounding safety and community. Interestingly, in this show, the group also revisited themes of love and freedom, which reflect their decades-long commitment to sociopolitical activism. This concert was part of the "iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE" tour, a tour that further solidified their status not just as entertainers, but as powerful voices for change.
