P!nk’s return to Vancouver was nothing short of spectacular. Her energy, unmatched stage presence, and the breathtaking aerial stunts left the packed Rogers Arena crowd in awe on September 6, 2024. From the moment the video montage of “Raise Your Glass,” “TRUSTFALL,” “What About Us,” and “Get the Party Started” flashed across the screens, the arena buzzed with anticipation, setting the tone for an unforgettable evening.
Act I: Flying High and Kicking Off the Party
P!nk wasted no time launching into the iconic “Get the Party Started,” complete with jaw-dropping aerial acrobatics that instantly electrified the crowd. Her medley of Eurythmics’ “Sweet Dreams” and C+C Music Factory’s “Gonna Make You Sweat” turned the arena into a massive dance floor. She kept the energy soaring with “Raise Your Glass” and “Who Knew,” showcasing her vocal strength while suspended high above the audience. By the time she hit “What About Us” with a fresh dance remix twist, P!nk had the entire arena singing along, fully locked into the vibe of the night.
Act II: Emotional Highs and Stunning Vocals
A shift in tempo arrived with “Heartbeat,” a mesmerizing dance sequence that paved the way for “Turbulence,” where P!nk once again defied gravity with her aerial prowess. A delightful surprise came when she played a snippet of “Walk Me Home” during a playful game of guessing songs with her pianist, followed by a heartfelt rendition of Bob Dylan’s “Make You Feel My Love” as she took to the piano herself. The intimacy of the moment was palpable. “Just Give Me a Reason” and “F**kin’ Perfect” brought emotional depth, while “Just Like Fire” blended seamlessly with a partial cover of Pat Benatar’s “Heartbreaker,” adding a classic rock flair to the set.
Act III: Stripped-Down and Soaring Spirit
In a beautiful acoustic segment, P!nk delivered stripped-down versions of “Please Don’t Leave Me” and “Don’t Let Me Get Me,” allowing her raw vocals and vulnerability to shine. She then touched the audience with “When I Get There,” a song filled with poignant emotion. But the most powerful sing-along came during 4 Non Blondes’ “What’s Up?”—a nostalgic, crowd-pleasing moment that felt like a shared anthem.
Act IV: The Trustfall and Final Dance
The high-flying action returned in Act IV with a soaring rendition of “Try,” where P!nk’s aerial stunts seemed effortless. The emotional spoken word interlude, “Are You Gonna Fall?”, transitioned beautifully into “TRUSTFALL,” where she showcased her stunning ability to blend music and performance art. “Blow Me (One Last Kiss)” brought a punchy energy, especially as she introduced her talented band, while “Never Gonna Not Dance Again” became a joyous celebration as P!nk introduced her dancers with a playful extended outro that left everyone grooving.
Encore: The Ultimate Finale
For the encore, P!nk pulled out all the stops with a larger-than-life performance of “So What.” The extended intro and outro only heightened the dramatic flair, and as she swung through the air, confetti rained down, ending the night on an exhilarating high.
Final Thoughts
P!nk’s show at Rogers Arena was a masterclass in combining athleticism, artistry, and genuine connection with the audience. From the intense aerobatics to the intimate acoustic moments, she delivered a performance that left a lasting impression on Vancouver.
