My experience seeing Hozier perform in Orlando!
Last Wednesday (May 8th) I got to see one of my favorite artists live for the first time: Hozier!!
Here are some thoughts and highlights from my experience that can hopefully help you plan ahead if you’re planning to go see Unreal Unearth!
• The concert was scheduled to start at 7:30 and we parked about an hour early! It was almost 7pm by the time we had fully entered the venue and found a spot right up against the barricade. I was pretty shocked at our luck because I thought we’d need to get there like HOURS early to get barricade.
• My Bf got us food before the show and it was not expensive at all for a concert venue! Like $12 dollars for a giant wrap (about what you’d expect to pay at a normal restaurant). They were also SO good about giving us water to pass around throughout the entire show which was very nice.
• The opener, Allison Russell, started playing right at 7:30pm. Her music was a vibe and she had the sweetest soul, definitely check it out whether or not you’re going to see the tour!!
• This was my first concert with GA/Pit admission and I was so anxious about the crowding (y’all remember AstroWorld?). Luckily the 99% of the fans were very polite and friendly and gave each other a respectful amount of personal space during the show. I ended up staying up front the whole time even though I thought I might get anxious and need to move to the back
• SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!!!
•There was a B stage towards the end of the set and it was a really nice break from the crowding. Everyone else flocked the B stage but most of us closest to the barricade took the opportunity to spread out and Dance!!
• I was extremely pleased with the set list, he played most of my favorites and there was a good mix of songs from every album. He pretty much played all his greatest hits!
• After the show we went to check out the merch and they were sold out of most of the cheapest items (pins, tote bags, etc) but had a ton of the apparel left including a really rad denim jacket. Merch prices were pretty standard for a concert. I paid $45 for the T-Shirt you see on the cover slide!
Overall the experience was 100000000000/10 and absolutely exceeded my expectations. If you have the chance to see Hozier live I HIGHLY recommend, his vocals are simply unmatched and it was honestly a spiritual experience for me 😭✨🫶

Attending a concert can be a thrilling experience, and seeing Hozier live only enhances that feeling. Known for his soulful voice and captivating stage presence, Hozier's concerts are more than just music; they are journeys into emotion and artistry. If you're planning to attend a show, consider these essential tips: arrive early to grab the best spot, plan your parking as venues can fill up quickly, and check out opening acts like Allison Russell who can add to your musical experience. The atmosphere is typically electric, with fans united by their love for the artist. Make sure to stay hydrated and take advantage of water availability, as concerts can be high-energy environments. Merchandise availability is also something to note; checking early for items can save you from disappointment later on. Enjoying the performance from the front row can offer an intimate view, but also be mindful of the crowd dynamics. Safety and comfort are key to enjoying the night to its fullest! Lastly, whether it's Hozier's rich discography filled with emotional depth or the sense of community shared among fellow concert-goers, each concert creates lasting memories. Be sure to secure your tickets early, as they tend to sell out fast, and prepare for an evening that promises not just entertainment, but an unforgettable experience that stays with you long after the last note is played.
