The Lost Tour Comes to Columbus' Nationwide Arena

Phoebe Bridgers has grown into one of indie music's most influential figures, both as a solo artist and as one-third of the supergroup boygenius with Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus. The Lost Tour returns her to arena headlining on her own, and the Ohio stop arrives at Nationwide Arena on September 22, 2026.

Bridgers introduced herself with 2017's Stranger in the Alps, then delivered 2020's Punisher, a record that earned four Grammy nominations and cemented her as a generational voice. Her songs marry sharp, gallows humor with raw vulnerability, and her concerts are celebrated for emotional intensity and the sound of an entire crowd singing back every word.

Nationwide Arena, home of the NHL's Columbus Blue Jackets, seats around 18,000 for concerts and sits at the heart of the city's bustling Arena District. The room's scale lets The Lost Tour's dynamics breathe, from delicate, whispered passages to the towering, full-volume finales that have become a Bridgers signature. Indie favorite Alex G supports across the North American leg.

For the setlist, Columbus fans can expect a career-spanning night anchored by Punisher standouts like "Kyoto," "Garden Song," "Savior Complex," and "I Know the End," alongside Stranger in the Alps favorites such as "Motion Sickness" and "Scott Street." With new music on the way, the show may also debut unreleased songs. The tour's setlists can be tracked on setlist.fm.

The Lost Tour's phone-free policy, using Yondr pouches, has drawn coverage from outlets including Variety and is built to create a fully immersive, screen-free concert. A dollar from each ticket supports RAINN, continuing Bridgers' practice of tying her tours to causes she believes in.
