Pop superstar Kesha is set to bring her high-energy performance to Tinley Park this summer, making a stop at the Credit Union 1 Amphitheatre on Saturday, August 29, 2026. The concert is part of her recently announced 25-date North American tour, "The Freedom Tour," which will also feature supporting acts Chromeo and Erika Jayne.
The show, organized by Live Nation, is scheduled to begin at 5:00 PM PDT. Fans can expect a full evening of music, with the bill including the electro-funk sounds of Chromeo and the dance-pop anthems of Erika Jayne. The Tinley Park date is one of many stops across major U.S. and Canadian cities, following the success of Kesha's previous "Tits Out Tour."
This new tour is framed as a celebration of resilience and self-discovery. "I’ve lived through the fire," Kesha said in a press release. "This tour is about what comes after. Freedom isn’t just leaving something behind. it’s discovering that what you have lived through has made you magnificently who you are."
A lineup of pop and funk
The Freedom Tour's stop in Tinley Park promises a diverse musical experience. Headliner Kesha, who rose to fame with hits like 'Tik Tok' and 'We R Who We R,' is known for her rebellious pop aesthetic and powerful stage presence. Her recent work has explored deeper themes of struggle and empowerment, which are expected to be central to this tour.
I want to know what freedom feels like, with all of you.
Joining her is the Canadian duo Chromeo. Known for their unique blend of electro-funk, disco, and rock, Dave 1 and P-Thugg have cultivated a dedicated following since the early 2000s. Their groovy basslines and catchy hooks provide a modern take on 1980s funk, creating a vibrant and danceable live show.
Opening the night is Erika Jayne, a singer and television personality recognized for her presence on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills." Jayne has carved out a successful career in the dance-pop world, with a string of club hits. Her glamorous and high-energy performances will set the stage for the evening.
