aftershows

Events following concerts

Aftershows are events held immediately following a main performance, typically a concert or theatrical production.

They offer audiences additional entertainment—often a more intimate set by the headliner or a performance by a different artist: We got tickets to the aftershow at a small club downtown.

Aftershows may be exclusive, requiring special passes or invitation.
