About this listen
Cyndi Lauper is at the epicenter of music headlines right now as she embarks on the highly anticipated final leg of her Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour, a swan song set to span 25 shows across North America this July and August 2025. Her last arena trek is electrifying fans coast to coast, with stops in major cities like New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Denver, San Francisco, and a climactic double finale under the stars at Los Angeles’s Hollywood Bowl. The opening act for these nights is Jake Wesley Rogers, and past shows on this tour have drawn celebrity friends such as Chaka Khan and Sam Smith on stage. The production has wowed audiences with bespoke stage art from legends Yayoi Kusama and Christian Siriano and runs a generous 1 hour 45 minutes to three hours, packed with hits like Time After Time, Girls Just Want to Have Fun, She Bop, and True Colors. Ticket prices are accessible, starting at $25 for lawn, and super fans can indulge in VIP experiences that go up to $700, offering primo seats and exclusive tour swag.
This farewell run is more than just a concert tour, it marks the culmination of more than four decades in pop culture’s limelight. Cyndi’s tour kicked off last fall and has already included historic moments—her first ever sold-out show at Madison Square Garden in her native New York City, for example. According to Good Morning America, she appeared on the show July 8 to reflect on the emotional significance of this final major outing and to share her ongoing passion for performing, stating she still feels strong and wants to bow out on her own terms, not with a walker at 80 but with pride and power at 72. She’s made it clear that while she’s stepping away from large-scale touring, she’s not retiring from music entirely and intends to continue with occasional performances.
The legend’s profile is only set to grow bigger this year, with her induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame coming up in November—a long overdue honor she recently reflected on as a full-circle moment in her career on Good Morning America. The press and fan buzz is palpable across social media, where concert clips, emotional tributes, and tour diary snippets are trending, especially as fans recognize these upcoming shows as their last chance to catch a true original performing her classics live. While there are no reports of new music or major business ventures in the past week, the overwhelming narrative is clear: Cyndi Lauper is closing out her era as one of music’s most influential and colorful icons, going out in a blaze of glory, surrounded by art, friends, and thousands of adoring fans.
