JamBase’s new 2025.JamBase.com mini-site offers a data-rich, story-driven look at a year when live music felt more global and more connected than ever. The hub draws on JamBase’s worldwide concert and festival data and editorial coverage to show how fans on every continent are filling venues, fields and clubs, underscoring the platform’s reach across hundreds of thousands of artists and venues worldwide. The result is a dashboard that turns tour dates, festival lineups, user data and articles into a clear picture of how, where and why live music thrived in 2025, along with a preview of the year to come.
Live music is global and so is JamBase. The site featured listings for events in over 100 countries and a look at the “Top 10 Countries” gives insight into JamBase’s ever-expanding international reach. Another section, “Where America Rocks,” visualizes the U.S. cities where stages stayed busiest, spotlighting metro areas with the highest concentration of concerts and festival activity. Alongside that, “Top Genres, Artists and Venues” uses JamBase’s deep show listings to illuminate which sounds, performers and rooms kept fans coming back. An interactive “Artist Growth Comparison” feature digs into touring scale-ups, showing who jumped from clubs to theaters, theaters to arenas and beyond over the past year. Be sure to search for your favorite artists to compare and contrast their 2025 touring activity.
Festivals get their own spotlight on 2025.JamBase.com through “Festival Champions,” which highlights artists who dominated lineups and racked up the most festival plays across genres. In tandem, the “Most Tracked Artists” section surfaces the bands and performers that JamBase users followed most closely, providing a fan-driven snapshot of who commanded attention in 2025. The hub also details the massive number of shows by unique artists that were attended by JamBase users last year.
The mini-site also pulls in “Editorial Coverage,” connecting the data back to JamBase’s tour announcements, concert recaps and festival reviews that told the stories behind the numbers all year long. A somber but essential “In Memoriam” section remembers the artists who we lost in 2025. Finally, a “2026 Preview” points ahead, using touring trends, festival bookings and shows tracked by JamBase users to hint at what’s coming next and help fans start circling dates on the calendar.
For anyone who wants to understand how 2025 sounded, felt and evolved in real time, 2025.JamBase.com is the place to start and the perfect launchpad for planning the next year of shows.
