Benson Boone — Wanted Man Tour in New Orleans
New Orleans’ Smoothie King Center gets a dose of arena-scale pop energy on August 23, 2026, when Benson Boone and the Wanted Man Tour hit the Crescent City. By this late-August stretch, Boone will have nearly two months of arena shows under his belt, performing with the polished intensity of an artist at the peak of his tour game. The 4x Platinum phenom behind “Beautiful Things” is touring on his sophomore album American Heart, bringing a setlist that blends the emotional rawness of his debut with the rockier, more expansive sound of his latest work.
New Orleans knows a thing or two about musicianship, and Boone delivers. His piano chops anchor every show, his vocal range is genuinely staggering, and his willingness to pour real emotion into every performance sets him apart from the polished-but-distant arena pop that dominates most tours. Songs like “Slow It Down,” “Ghost Town,” and “In the Stars” hit with confessional weight, while American Heart’s anthemic tracks fill every corner of Smoothie King Center’s 18,000-seat bowl.

Benson Boone Brings the Heat to the Big Easy
In a city celebrated for its musical heritage, Benson Boone arrives as proof that raw talent and genuine emotion never go out of style. The Monroe, Washington native bypassed the American Idol fast track — walking away from the Top 24 despite Katy Perry predicting a win — and instead built his career one song at a time. “Beautiful Things” became a global sensation (4x Platinum, billions of streams), and his debut album Fireworks & Rollerblades established him as a songwriter who pairs pop accessibility with the emotional depth of alternative rock. The sophomore album American Heart cranks the volume even higher with arena-ready arrangements.
Boone’s live show is built on a foundation of musicianship that NOLA crowds will appreciate. He’s a pianist first, a guitarist second, and a vocalist whose range — from tender whisper to full-bore, room-shaking belt — is the kind of instrument you have to hear in person to fully grasp. “Slow It Down” builds like a summer storm, “In the Stars” carries devastating emotional gravity, and “Ghost Town” pulses with nervous energy that gets an arena moving. The Smoothie King Center crowd is in for a Sunday night they won’t soon forget.
