On June 3rd, 2025, one of my most anticipated concerts finally came to life: I got to see Imagine Dragons live for the third time – this time during their Loom World Tour in Tallinn, at the iconic Song Festival Grounds (Tallinna Lauluväljak). And let me tell you – what a performance it was! Keep reading to find out everything about this unforgettable night.
First Things First…
Firstly, let’s address the elephant in the room: Dan Reynolds, the lead singer of Imagine Dragons.Yes, he is as hot as a man can be. His outfit in Tallinn? Also incredibly sexy – and who could say no to a transparent tank top that doesn’t leave much to the imagination? He didn’t take it off during the whole show, but I don’t think anyone was upset about that. The evening, while sunny with clear skies, was still cold – just around 12–13°C (thanks to Estonian summer) – so honestly, I’m just glad he didn’t go for the skiing bodysuit.
Dan talked about his intense workout routine, mentioning that he trains six days a week and sticks to his regime even while touring. His wellness coach once said, “He had clear goals: He wanted to look great with his shirt off, and he wanted to dunk.” So I think we can take a moment to appreciate the effort – it clearly pays off. Just look at that ripped body. Also, special shout-out to Dan’s tan – it was like the cherry on top!
Now that we’ve addressed this very important topic, let’s try to keep the rest of this post family-friendly. If you want more insights into Dan’s physique… you know where to find me.
The Venue – Song Festival Grounds (Tallinna Lauluväljak)
The concert was held at Tallinna Lauluväljak, a beautiful open-air venue located in a park and surrounded by trees. It fits around 75,000 people, and since the Imagine Dragons concert was sold out, I’d say we were pretty close to full capacity. One thing I noticed, though, was that there seemed to be fewer Golden Circle tickets available than expected. I saw some overhead photos, and it looked like only about a third of the front section was used, even though all tickets were sold out.
It was my first time both at this venue and at a concert in Estonia, and I was pleasantly surprised by how smooth everything was. It was well organized, with clear maps of the venue and entrances available online. Although, I do think it would’ve been helpful if they’d included which entrance was best for each sector.
The tickets for Imagine Dragons Loom World Tour 2025 in Tallinn
I got my tickets during the artist presale without any trouble. I went for Golden Circle Left and paid €150 per ticket. Honestly, for that view and experience, it felt worth every cent.
Concert Day Timeline
Here’s how the day went down:
2:30 PM – Arrived at the venue
5:00 PM – Doors opened
8:00 PM – Opening act: Declan McKenna
9:30 PM – Imagine Dragons
11:15 PM – Show ended
Queuing and Waiting at Tallinna Lauluväljak
So now I can say out loud: of course, the goal was to get as close to the front row as possible. I didn’t want to jinx it, because you never know how queuing will go — but luckily, the queuing culture in Estonia wasn’t as wild as in some other countries, which was great news for us.
There were three official entrances, but we used the “ORU GATES” since it was the closest to our sector (Golden Circle Left). Pro tip: always double-check which entrance is best for your ticket sector, because venues differ in how they handle entry, and layouts can vary a lot.
We arrived about two and a half hours before doors opened. Some people were already waiting, but we secured a good spot near the gates and settled in patiently. There was a bit of stress about early-entry tickets possibly filling the first rows, but they ended up being let into GA, and our Golden Circle area was still empty and waiting for us.
Once inside, we quickly grabbed our spot, met some fellow Lithuanians, and all the excitement started to build. The crowd filled in slowly, so it was easy to grab drinks or use the bathroom without long lines. The venue had both portable and built-in toilets, and thankfully, queues were minimal — at least early on.
Because we could move around, sit on the floor by the barricade, and meet new people, the waiting time flew by. Honestly, it was one of the smoothest queuing and waiting experiences I’ve had at a concert.
The one exception? The merch stand, which had a huge queue before the show. I’m not sure how long people waited, but after the concert, the lines were much shorter and more manageable.
The View: My Front-Row Experience
Right at 5 PM, we were let inside and quickly grabbed our spot right at the barricade. I made a little map of the stage layout to show exactly where we stood. Our spot gave us a bit of a back view since Dan tended to face the front a lot, but whenever he was in our corner, it felt like seeing him in full HD. Being that close to the stage was incredible.
Next time I go, I’ll definitely try to get a similar spot. Plus, we had so many fun interactions during the show — no complaints here! Keep reading to find out what happened next.
Imagine Dragons: The Performance
This was my third time seeing Imagine Dragons live, so my expectations were already sky-high. We all know what a performer Dan Reynolds is — energetic, charismatic, and yes, hot as I already mentioned. But somehow, he and the band still manages to exceed expectations every time.
The band kicked off the show with “Fire in These Hills” from their new album, followed by an upbeat set including “Thunder,” “Bones,” “Take Me to the Beach,” and “Shots.” I heard the GA crowd was a bit more passive, but on our side, we were singing, dancing, and having the time of our lives from the first note.
Dan himself is a force of nature, fully giving himself to the audience and mesmerizing everyone around. Honestly, I don’t think I can say anything new here — he really is an extraordinary frontman.
Acoustic Set and My Lucky Moment
During the acoustic set, the whole band moved down to the end of the runway, giving everyone a chance to see them up close. They started with the deeply emotional “Next To Me.” The crowd lit up with a sea of lights, and it was a truly tear-jerking moment.
But here’s the best part: during that song, my luck struck again — Dan sang directly to me. AGAIN. Two years later! So now my biggest flex is that Dan actually sang “Follow You” and “Next To Me” while looking and pointing right at me. I mean, talk about goals! There were at least two or three more moments of eye contact, but those singing moments were everything. Can I officially call Dan my bestie now?
Back to the acoustic set — it continued with a beautiful cover of “Lean on Me,” then transitioned into “I Bet My Life.” Dan came down into the crowd, shaking hands, giving high-fives, and stopping several times right in front of the fans, letting everyone get really close. While he didn’t stop next to us, we did manage to high-five him — and let me tell you, his arm feels just as strong as you’d imagine!
The Rest of the Night
The setlist in Tallinn had a few surprises — the band included more songs from the new LOOM album, like “Wake Up” and “In Your Corner,” which I was so happy to hear live! I think these replaced “I’m So Sorry” and “Birds.” You can find the full setlist here.
I can’t say much about the effects since I mostly focused on the band, but there were huge screens, cool visuals, fireworks, and the signature avalanche of confetti that I kept finding for days after the concert. Don’t sue me, but honestly, the music, the band, and Dan mesmerized me so much I barely noticed anything else. Still, I’m sure the show was impressive from wherever you stood, as I saw some videos from farther away.
The night closed with “Believer.” Knowing it was the last song, I couldn’t believe the show was almost over — it flew by in the blink of an eye. After the final song and a wave of emotions, the band thanked the audience and left the stage. But the crowd kept shouting and clapping for an encore for several minutes. Unfortunately, the lights came on, the stage crew appeared, and one of the best nights was officially over.
One Last Tip
If you’re going to an Imagine Dragons concert just for hits like “Radioactive” or “Demons” — which are amazing, of course — I encourage you to give the full setlist a chance. Listen to some of the other songs and the new album; you might find your new favorite tracks. They have an incredible catalog, and you’ll enjoy the show even more. Plus, singing along is so much fun! Personally, I was a bit sad that “Follow You” didn’t make it to the final setlist, but the new songs were fun too!
Final Thoughts
As always, I’ll end my post with: if you get the chance, go to this concert. It’s what keeps me going through the concert blues the day after — especially knowing that in just a month, I’ll be seeing Imagine Dragons again in Hamburg. So Dan, don’t forget about me just yet!
