Last night Pandora Live closed out 2019 with Halsey at Avant Gardner in Brooklyn, NY for some of her most hardcore fans! With the show being on Tuesday, (12/10) fans camped out the night before/morning of in the rain just to get into this first come for serve GA event. And trust us, this show was was worth the wait, especially for the fact that Halsey performed a few select songs from her upcoming album Manic for the first time ever live, as well as some old favorites.
The songs off of Manic included, “Nightmare,” “Finally // beautiful stranger,” “Clementine,” “Graveyard,” and “Without Me,” which she dedicated to Juice WRLD.
Before singing “Without Me,” she hinted that her remix with Juice WRLD was the better version, and then told crowd that life is too short and we should enjoy ourselves while we’re all still here.
Another precious moment would have to be when she said, “It’s honestly really nice for me to say that I really like Manic Ashley,” before singing “Clementine.” See below:
Simultaneously, the concert was broadcasted live in the Times Square “megazilla” screen with an accompanying silent disco where over 500 fans listened and watched the concert with special headphones. We couldn’t be more proud of this Jersey girl for making it on the big screen in NYC!
Not only did Pandora Live feature this special performance by Halsey, they also had some onsite experiences, complimentary food, giveaways, and more for fans.
One of our personal favorite items were the exclusive Halsey x Pandora Live bags!
At this event, fans were able to customize their own hat using blacklight-reactive marbling paint and snap photos in Spectrum’s blacklight photo booth to show off their colorful design. There was also opportunities to take photos in front of the custom gift tag with Bonobos and get a discount code, grab a unique flower crown inspired by Burt’s Bees Lip Butter flavors along with some Lip Butter samples.
Fans were also welcome to grab some Spicy Chicken Nuggets and Frosty’s thanks to Wendy’s! Walking around the venue, fans could also find some exclusive giveaways from Tostitos, Stop & Shop, MINDBODY, and Kit Kat.
To make the night even more special, Pandora presented Halsey a Pandora Billionaire plaque for achieving over 2.5 billion streams on Pandora. CONGRATS HALSEY!
