Phoebe Bridgers takes the Capital One Arena stage in...
Phoebe Bridgers Brings The Lost Tour to DC!
Washington, get ready. Phoebe Bridgers arrives at Capital One Arena on Tuesday, September 29, 2026, as part of her long-awaited The Lost Tour. After years of surprise pop-up shows and her acclaimed work in boygenius, Bridgers is back headlining arenas on her own, and a downtown DC stop has fans across the DMV counting down.
The Lost Tour marks Bridgers' full return to the spotlight as a solo artist, with new music widely anticipated to follow her 2020 breakthrough Punisher. Joining her across North America is beloved indie songwriter Alex G, whose adventurous, deeply personal music sets an ideal tone before Bridgers takes the stage.
DC fans can expect a setlist pulled from the albums that made Bridgers one of her generation's defining voices. Tracks like "Kyoto," "Motion Sickness," "Garden Song," and the explosive finale "I Know the End" turn her concerts into shared catharsis, where hushed verses build into full-arena, scream-along releases. With a new record on the horizon, the night may also feature the live debut of unreleased songs.
One thing to know before you go: The Lost Tour is entirely phone-free. Phones are secured in Yondr pouches for the length of the show, keeping the room screen-free and the focus on the music. The format has won praise for making concerts feel more present and connected. In keeping with Bridgers' values, one dollar from every ticket is donated to RAINN.
What makes a Bridgers show unforgettable is the contrast at its heart. One moment the arena is nearly silent, hanging on a single fragile vocal line; the next, thousands of voices are roaring a chorus in unison. That dynamic range, combined with striking stage production and the focus the phone-free format brings, makes The Lost Tour feel like a genuine event.
An arena show of this caliber in the nation's capital will not stay available long. Browse the listings below to compare seats and pricing for the September 29 date, then secure your tickets on BigStub before they sell out.
Capital One Arena sits in the heart of DC's Penn Quarter, steps from the Gallery Place Metro and surrounded by restaurants and bars — making it one of the easiest venues in the city to reach and a great spot to plan a full night around.
The Lost Tour Arrives at DC's Capital One Arena
Phoebe Bridgers has become one of indie music's most influential artists, both as a solo performer and as one-third of the supergroup boygenius alongside Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus. The Lost Tour returns her to arena headlining on her own terms, and the Washington stop lands at Capital One Arena on September 29, 2026.
After her 2017 debut Stranger in the Alps, Bridgers released 2020's Punisher, a record that earned four Grammy nominations and established her as a generational voice. Her songwriting threads dark humor through deep vulnerability, and her live shows are renowned for their emotional power and the sound of an entire arena singing every line back to her.
Capital One Arena, home to the NHL's Washington Capitals and the NBA's Washington Wizards, seats around 20,000 for concerts and anchors the lively Penn Quarter neighborhood downtown. A room of that scale lets The Lost Tour's emotional dynamics swell, from the quietest verse to the cathartic, full-volume finales that have become a Bridgers trademark. Indie favorite Alex G supports across the North American leg.
For the setlist, DC fans can anticipate a career-spanning night built on Punisher highlights such as "Kyoto," "Garden Song," "Savior Complex," and "I Know the End," alongside Stranger in the Alps favorites like "Motion Sickness" and "Scott Street." With new music expected, the show may also include unreleased songs. The tour's setlists can be followed on setlist.fm.
The Lost Tour's phone-free policy, using Yondr pouches, has drawn coverage from outlets including Billboard and is intended to create a fully present, screen-free concert. A dollar from each ticket benefits RAINN, continuing Bridgers' practice of linking her tours to causes she supports.
