According to an official announcement, Grammy award-winning artist and performer Tems is set to be the main performer at The Stage 2025 concert, which is being hosted by Billboard in London.

Billboard announced in a press release that it is taking its successful THE STAGE at SXSW concert series to the UK with a debut event at SXSW London scheduled for 2025.

This London edition precedes the return of THE STAGE to the original South by Southwest event in Austin, Texas, which took place earlier in 2025. The Austin series is scheduled to feature three electrifying performances at the Moody Amphitheater in Waterloo Park from March 13 to 15, 2025, with Koe Wetzel, Grupo Frontera, and John Summit taking the stage. Tickets for the Austin performances are now available for purchase.
