Troye Sivan's Birmingham show on Friday night was an electrifying event that had the audience buzzing with excitement from start to finish. Whilst Jodie Harsh's opening DJ set managed to get the crowd's hands in the air a few times, it overall felt a bit underwhelming compared to the energy that followed. The Gen Z crowd, however, erupted with enthusiasm for Mason vs Princess Superstars ‘Perfect’ - clearly a fan favourite.
As soon as Troye took the stage, the atmosphere transformed into an exhilarating dance party. The full-on dance routines and creative props made for an unforgettable performance. Tracks like ‘Bloom’ brought a heavier vibe, getting the crowd jumping, while ‘Still Got It’ saw phone lights illuminating the room in a magical moment of unity. The entire audience swayed in unison to ‘Can't Go Back, Baby’ and the anticipation hit a peak with ‘One of Your Girls’, which garnered the loudest cheer yet.
Sivan's showmanship was on full display as he interacted with the audience, urging them to go feral for two more songs—a request met with enthusiastic compliance. The set included multiple outfit changes, each more dazzling than the last. A cover of Charli XCX's ‘1999’ took the roof off the place, and the explosive finale with ‘Rush’ had nearly every phone camera in the venue capturing the moment. The night culminated in a spectacular highlight of Sivan's tour, leaving fans in Birmingham with memories to cherish.
