Lorde is performing at the Pulse Arena on Tuesday.

Lorde, the New Zealand-born pop star known for her distinctive sound and introspective lyrics, will perform at the Polish Arena in Pula on Tuesday, August 18. The concert marks one of the few solo performances she has scheduled this summer, as she primarily performs at festivals. The event is part of her "Ultrasound" tour and promises a set list featuring some of her most iconic tracks alongside songs from her latest album, Virgin. The concert’s repertoire typically includes more than 20 songs, with the performance opening with her massive hit “Royals” and concluding with “Ribs,” a track she often performs in a more intimate setting closer to the stage. During the Melbourne show earlier this year, over 14,000 fans jumped into the air simultaneously at her request, highlighting the energy and connection she fosters with her audience. From her current album Virgin, the set list features standout tracks such as “Current Affairs,” “David,” “Favourite Daughter,” “Hammer,” “Man of the Year,” “What Was That,” “Broken Glass,” and “Shapeshifter.” Fans can expect to hear “Team” and “Buzzcut Season” from her debut album Pure Heroine, along with “Green Light,” “Liability,” “Supercut,” “The Louvre,” and “Perfect Places” from Melodrama. Her Solar Power album will be represented by “Oceanic Feeling,” while the encore may include a cover of “Girl, So Confusing” performed by Charli XCX. Ella Marie Lani Yelich-O’Connor, better known by her stage name Lorde, was born in New Zealand with Croatian heritage and holds dual citizenship. She burst onto the music scene in 2013 at just 16 years old with the hit “Royals,” which became an instant classic. With her debut album Pure Heroine, she became one of the youngest artists to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100 since 1987. Her work has been widely praised, with Melodrama being named among the greatest albums of all time by Rolling Stone, and Solar Power receiving critical acclaim for its synth-pop revival. Her new album Virgin explores themes of maturity and self-discovery, reflecting her growth both personally and professionally. The album’s release has generated considerable anticipation, with fans eager to experience the evolution of her musical style. Lorde continues to challenge conventions in pop music, blending emotional depth with innovative production techniques. As part of the evening's lineup, Norwegian alternative pop duo Smerz will open the show. Known for their experimental approach and unique sound, Smerz have gained recognition within Scandinavia’s indie music scene. Their performance will provide a dynamic contrast to Lorde’s more introspective style, offering fans a diverse range of musical experiences. Tickets for the concert are available through the Core Event and Eventim platforms. Pricing varies depending on seating location, with prices starting at 55 euros for the lawn area, 68 euros for the main floor, and 83 euros for the standing areas. The event is expected to draw audiences from over 30 countries, underscoring the international appeal of Lorde’s music and the significance of the venue in hosting major concerts.
