Louis Tomlinson - How Did We Get Here ?

Louis Tomlinson at LDLC Arena

We are delighted to welcome Louis Tomlinson to LDLC Arena for an evening titled How Did We Get Here, a gathering designed for fans who have followed his evolution from pop phenomenon to confident, guitars-forward solo artist. Our stage is built for shows that balance intimacy and scale, and Louis’s current momentum makes this a perfect match for our venue in the Lyon metropolitan area. Since the release of Faith in the Future, his live identity has sharpened around punchy choruses and raw, band-driven arrangements, with recent favorites like Silver Tongues, Bigger Than Me, Written All Over Your Face, and Out Of My System becoming communal singalongs. In parallel, the documentary All of Those Voices offered a candid window into his process and relationship with fans, while the artist-curated Away From Home Festival has underscored his ear for emerging talent and his commitment to the live scene. At LDLC Arena, we aim to frame that artistic clarity with immersive sound and sightlines that draw you into every lyric, guitar break, and shared moment.

What to Expect from How Did We Get Here

From our vantage point, How Did We Get Here feels like a celebration of storytelling through songs that have grown alongside the audience. We’re preparing a sound mix that brings definition to the low-end punch and the crunch of guitars without losing the nuance of Louis’s vocal—the kind of treatment that lets anthems soar and ballads breathe. Fans can expect the evening’s heartbeat to move between kinetic indie-rock energy and reflective tenderness, the spectrum that has made the recent shows so engaging. While every set is its own conversation with the crowd, moments built around Walls, We Made It, Kill My Mind, Lucky Again, The Greatest, Silver Tongues, and Bigger Than Me have become emotional anchors, and our room is tuned to make those crescendos land cleanly from the floor to the highest tier. Visuals and lighting will be calibrated to heighten dynamics—quiet verses lit like confessions, choruses bursting into color—so that the architecture of LDLC Arena becomes a canvas for the music’s peaks and valleys.

Hosting Louis at LDLC Arena also means shaping an experience that begins long before the first chord rings out. Our concourses will feature dedicated merchandise spaces, a range of food and beverage options, and clear wayfinding so you can settle in and soak up the pre-show atmosphere with fellow fans. The bowl configuration for this show is designed to keep you close to the performance, whether you’re leaning into the front-of-house energy on the floor or taking in the full production from our tiered seating. We’re attentive to accessibility, comfort, and flow throughout the night, with staff on hand to guide you to your section and ensure everything runs smoothly. For us, How Did We Get Here is not just a title—it captures the feeling of community that forms when a crowd and an artist meet at the perfect moment. In Lyon, inside LDLC Arena, that moment will be all about the rush of guitars, the quiet of a line landing just right, and thousands of voices rising together on songs that have become part of people’s lives.
