Kansas City gets the first show of Teddy Swims’ new North American arena tour tonight, and there may still be time to grab a seat without paying arena-headliner prices.
Swims takes the stage at T-Mobile Center on Tuesday, September 22, with tickets advertised on resale marketplaces for around $50—and some listings showing even lower starting prices. Those prices can change quickly, and fees may be added at checkout, but they give last-minute concertgoers a reason to take another look.
The Kansas City performance is more than another stop on the schedule: it marks the opening night of Swims’ North American arena run. For fans who have watched the singer’s rise from online covers to sold-out crowds and major stages, tonight offers a chance to see the next chapter begin close to home.
From online covers to an arena stage
Swims built an audience with performances that put his powerful, soulful voice front and center. His sound draws from soul, R&B, pop and country, giving him an appeal that reaches well beyond any single genre.
His breakthrough hit, “Lose Control,” introduced that voice to an even wider audience. Tonight, Kansas City fans will hear him at the start of a tour designed for arenas—a considerable leap from the intimate settings where many listeners first discovered him.
What time does Teddy Swims perform?
T-Mobile Center has published the following schedule for tonight’s show:
| Time | Event |
|---|---|
| 6 p.m. | Doors open |
| 7 p.m. | MarcLo |
| 7:50 p.m. | Mac Ayres |
| 9:10 p.m. | Teddy Swims |
Fans planning to see the opening acts should arrive well before Swims’ scheduled set. As with any live performance, set times are subject to change.
Can you still get tickets for $50?
As of this morning, ticket marketplaces were advertising entry-level seats in roughly the $40–$50 range. That is a starting listing price, not a promise that every available seat costs $50 or that the final price will be $50 after fees. Availability and prices may change throughout the day.
Concertgoers can compare options through the official AXS ticket page or check SeatGeek’s Teddy Swims listings . Be sure to select tonight’s Kansas City performance and review the full checkout total before purchasing.
For music fans in Topeka, Lawrence and Manhattan willing to make the drive, tonight presents an unusual combination: a major artist, the first night of a new arena tour and last-minute tickets advertised at a comparatively accessible starting price.
The show is tonight, Tuesday, September 22, at T-Mobile Center in downtown Kansas City. Doors open at 6 p.m., with Teddy Swims scheduled to perform at 9:10 p.m.
