Justin Bieber’s Knock Out Sydney Concert

As rain poured from the sky, Justin Beiber prepared to pour his heart out on stage as thousands of fans approached Sydney’s ANZ Stadium on Wednesday the 15th of March. Lines stretched for hundreds of metres for the stars Purpose Tour, and the crowd went wild when the gates opened at 5 pm, as supporting acts Sheppard and Martin Garrix were in charge of warming up the crowd.

The screams of over 70,000 people filled the stadium, as Bieber rose from the ground in a giant glass box, singing his hit ‘Mark My Words‘.

The level of excitement within the stadium shifted once again, however it was almost anti-climatic as he disappeared off stage, returning with the lesser known ‘Get used to it‘.

The stadium was lit up with an incredible light show throughout the night, but the theatrics didn’t stop there. Bieber’s dancers entertained the crowd, while tireless efforts from the backstage crew wowed the crowd with multiple changes to the Canadian’s backdrop and costume throughout the show.

The crowd sang along to ‘Love yourself‘ and lit the stadium up with their phone’s torch lights, which was concert goer Chloe Granger’s stand out moment.

“My favourite part of the show was when he sat down and sung acoustically with his guitar. Everyone turned on their phone lights and the whole stadium looked like stars,” said Granger. 

Throughout the concert Bieber interacted with the crowd and during his song ‘Children‘, he picked several children out of the crowd to dance on stage with, him which was enjoyed by ticket holder Amy Lambert.

“It was a surprise to me when all the children ran out on stage and performed the dance. I was very impressed by all of their abilities and the energy they had on stage. Obviously, that fit perfectly with the song,” said Lambert.

Bieber later showcased more of his talents with dance moves that impressed the crowd as the screams took over the stadium after every song. He brought the energy to a new level after he played a solo on the drums between songs.

As the show was drawing to a close, fireworks showered the stage as Beiber performed ‘Sorry‘ as his encore, wrapping up his Australian shows of his Purpose World Tour. The superstar will next perform in Auckland, New Zealand, before continuing on to South America where he will be doing 11 shows in 9 countries over the next month.
