Sam Smith has been captivating audiences with their unique high tenor since first appearing as the ebullient vocalist on Disclosure’s 2012 breakout single “Latch.” At only 22, the London-born singer instantly became one of the UK’s greatest pop exports after releasing their first album, In the Lonely Hour (2014), which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 album chart and went on to achieve platinum certification five times over in the U.S. The album also earned Smith four Grammys, including Song of the Year and Record of the Year (for the Darkchild remix of “Stay with Me”), as well as Best New Artist. Smith then co-wrote and performed the opening theme “Writing’s on the Wall” for the 2015 James Bond film Spectre, which earned them an Academy Award. Smith’s 2017 sophomore album The Thrill of It All cemented their place at pop music’s forefront, opening atop the Billboard 200, while 2020’s Love Goes boasted collaborations with genre-leading contemporaries like Calvin Harris, Normani, Burna Boy and Demi Lovato. In 2023, Smith released their fourth full-length, Gloria, featuring the Grammy-winning Kim Petras duet, “Unholy,” which became the singer’s first No. 1 single on the Billboard Hot 100 — and the first song by an openly non-binary artist and transgender artist, respectively, to reach the chart’s top spot.

Yesss!!! This is what I want when I go to a concert. A show!! A story, an arc, outfit changes, slay choreo, loud queerness. Sam ate and left no crumbs
C’était juste parfait meilleur show ever. Les effets la voix les costumes trop beaux!!!
Great show! The place was hopping all night! Thanks for a great night
Sam smith’s vocal range is amaaazing, watching them live singing his was through his old melodies all the way to his latest pop singles was an experience ❤️❤️. I got a tour t-shirt too❤️❤️
Everything was amazing, gorgeous stage prop! Lighting! Back up singers and dancers! Very fun sexual show! Sam was as always perfect! Loved the clothes, loved how he addressed the crowd with thanks and tears! Inspirational show!! Opening Jesse was great too! Waiting 40 minutes to get out of parking lot at bell!! Not so good!!
Sam Smith’s Gloria tour concert was one of the best shows I have seen! His voice, the decor, the dancers, the backup signers… Everything. He delivered a show that was beautiful, touching, but also so fun. It was such a great night!
Was one of the best experience I’ve ever had, I cried, I Danced, I Twerked hahahah I had so much fun. and all the staff were very supportive
I cried with the first note! The energy in the room of thousands of Empaths will light my heart for months!! His voice, vision, and vulnerability, VIRTUOSITY!!!
The best word to describe this show is "brilliant". Sam Smith takes his audience on a journey with his music. The show starts in a very serene, peaceful way and ends quite differently. Everything about it was spectacular. If they were in Toronto two nights, I would have seen them again.
Great experience!!!!! Three acts: Love, Beauty and Sex! One Theme: Freedom!
Comme c'était ma première fois au centre bell, je n'ai pas trouvé où me présenter ayant un billet vip argent, donc je suis entré très en retard bien que j'étais en avance, je n'ai pas reçu mes cadeaux vip ne sachant pas où les réclamer malgré le courrier reçu. J'adore Sam radiophoniquement, mais malheureusement la magie n'a pas opérée en personne pour moi ce qui ne lui enleve rien à l'artiste de talent qu'iel est.
It was an amazing experience, looking forward to the next.
Sam is always nice and got a beautiful voice But he really need a new 1st act The only thing that bugged me out is the way he finished the show
Sam Smith was super humble thanking everyone being part of this journey. The detail to this concert was immaculate! This concert was unique and personal to him that makes this concert the most memorable experience ever!
We had an amazing evening with Sam. Great voice, great show. Didn’t like all the outfits, but, apart from that, class act show
What a show !!! The screen was big enough, sound was fantastic and the fact that Sam smith was even higher than the stage was just perfect
Everything was perfect - Sam Smith was in his best! Also pricing for his show was REASONABLE compared to what's been going on lately with prices for Bell Center shows.. Lines to Bar / Bathroom etc. were ok, stuff was ok, and generally it was super nice evening with lots of good memories! One thing I would suggest is to mention in some newsletter to the ticket owners whether they are allowed or now to bring in umbrellas. It was raining and we didn't bring any being afraid we would not be allowed to have it in but it seems for some ppl it was not an issue.
The show was amazing. And it was perfect on a pride day. He is such a performer. However it was really weird how the show ended. No good bye nothing. The music stopped Sam smith left without a word and the light went on. I am a bit wondering he actually care about people paying to come to see him.
It was fabulous to ear him and see him being so happy on stage . What a show! What a night! Thank u so much Sam Smith for this event
I've loved Sam Smith for years and although I'm not a big fan of his new music/act, I did really enjoy his show and thought it had a great vibe to it!
