Months after you bought those tickets to see your favorite artist on tour, the day of the concert has finally arrived. You’ve had your outfit picked out for weeks, and you’re ready to use that TikTok transition you’ve been seeing all over your FYP. Once the show is over, you’re probably (definitely) gonna want to commemorate the event on the ‘gram. But in order for your post to be as memorable as the concert itself, you’re going to need the perfect Instagram caption.

The GUTS tour may be coming to a close in August, and Taylor Swift won’t be bringing the Eras tour back to the U.S. until October, but as long as your favorite artists keep putting out music, you’ll hopefully never run out of concerts to look forward to. Whether you plan to camp out in the pit or spend the night screaming from the top of your lungs in the nosebleeds, you’re gonna want to share the experience with your IG followers — and maybe even fill them with a little FOMO, too. Stories are great for capturing the concert in the moment, but if you want a record of your attendance that won’t disappear after 24 hours, a grid post is the way to go. And if the show leaves you speechless, let these 40 concert caption ideas do the talking, no matter what genre you’re into.

1

“Last night rocked.”

This caption is simple, to the point, and even has a double entendre. Use the horns hand emoji for added character.

2

“Life is short. Buy those tickets.”

Words to live by.

3

“Sorry if you heard me screaming last night. Actually — no I’m not.”

Sorry, not sorry.

4

“Home is where the tour is.”

Where to next?

5

“Playing this night in my head over and over again like it’s my favorite song.”

Don’t mind me, just reliving the Renaissance tour in my head.

6

“The post-concert blues are real.”

Too real.

7

“No voice, no problem.”

Did you even go to the concert if you didn’t lose your voice?

8

“Your favorite artist could never.”

Let the stan wars begin.

9

“BRB: building a time machine so I can relive this night.”

Watching videos on my phone is not enough.

10

“Find me where the music is.”

This is the perfect caption for a cute solo pic in front of the stage.

11

“Pretty sure I was the loudest person in the stadium.”

You might as well own it.

12

“The album version is great and all, but I prefer the live version.”

Nothing beats live music.

13

“More nights like this please.”

This caption is begging to be used for your group photo.

14

“I swear the drummer winked at me.”

This is a fun and cheeky caption where you sat in the front row or were planted in the nosebleeds.

15

“You just had to be there.”

You wouldn’t get it.

16

“Good vibes, even better music.”

Bonus points if you use this caption at a music festival.

“So many concerts, so little time…and money.”

True.

18

“Find me where the music plays all night long.”

For the free-spirited concertgoer.

We’ve all been there.

21

“I live for live music.”

A little wordplay never hurt anybody.

22

“Watching these videos gives me FOMO – and I was there.”

Relatable.

23

“Let’s go where the music is too loud.”

You might want to bring earplugs, though.

24

“Music makes you lose control.”

Missy Elliott is going on tour in July, after all.

25

“My headphones are gonna have a hard time living up to this.”

Not even the best ones money can buy can compare.

26

“Live music > everything else.”

No arguments here.

27

“Groupie for life.”

If this isn’t your first time seeing your favorite artist live, go ahead and post some photos from previous tours to prove you’ve earned your stan status.

28

“It’s more than music to me.”

It’s a lifestyle.

29

“Put on my very own concert in the stands last night.”

Why bother attending a concert if you’re not going to sing?

30

“Why does music sound better late at night?”

No shade to daytime concerts, obviously.

31

“Wouldn’t trade this night for the world.”

Don’t be afraid to get sentimental.

32

“At a concert again, but what else is new?”

Just your average Tuesday night.

33

“It’s not just a concert, it’s an experience.”

Say it louder for the people in the back

A small price to pay for seeing your favorite artist live.

As they should be.

After conquering the merch line, you deserve it.

Hey, it counts.

38

“‘Music’ is my favorite word. My second favorite is ‘concert.’”

Real ones understand.

You can thank Madonna for this perfect lyric-turned-caption.

“Concert tickets = priceless.”

No lies detected.
