Olivia Rodrigo concluded her highly successful Guts World Tour with an exclusive performance in New York City on October 23, 2023. The intimate, invite-only concert took place at the historic Park Avenue Armory, drawing a select audience of fans, friends, and notable guests.
The event, hosted by American Express, featured a setlist filled with Rodrigo’s biggest hits, including “Drivers License,” “Vampire,” and “Deja Vu.” A highlight of the night was the live performance of “Lacy,” which has gained popularity since its inclusion in the television series The Summer I Turned Pretty. Rodrigo expressed her gratitude to the audience, stating, “Ever since it was in that show, people have been chanting at me at concerts to sing this song if I wasn’t going to sing it. I’m really grateful to that show, and I’m really grateful to you guys for listening to this song and streaming it, because it’s always been one of my favorites.”
In a show of support for young fans, Rodrigo welcomed attendees from the Make-A-Wish Foundation before the performance. Proceeds from the concert’s ticket sales benefited Rodrigo’s own initiative, Fund 4 Good, aimed at promoting education, reproductive rights, and young women’s leadership programs.
Star-Studded Audience and Historic Venue
The concert was attended by several prominent figures, including Ashley Park from *Emily in Paris*, actress Nina Dobrev, and makeup artist Patrick Ta. The performance took place under the impressive arches of the Armory’s Drill Hall, a venue rich in history that once housed the Seventh Regiment of the National Guard, the first volunteer militia to respond to President Abraham Lincoln’s call in 1861.
This secret concert marked the final stop on Rodrigo’s Guts World Tour, which began earlier this year in Palm Springs and covered more than 75 dates across North America and Europe. Since her debut, Rodrigo has made a significant impact on the music scene, achieving multiple entries on the Billboard Hot 100. Her breakout single, “Drivers License,” held the No. 1 position for an impressive eight weeks, and she has since garnered a total of three No. 1 hits on the chart.
Rodrigo’s influence continues to grow, as evidenced by her performance at the 2025 Lollapalooza festival, where she shared the stage with the iconic band Weezer. As she concludes this chapter of her career, fans eagerly anticipate what the future holds for this talented artist.
