The vibe in Hartford
Olivia Rodrigo has officially entered her touring era again, and lowkey, the energy is unmatched. On Friday, September 25, the "Stupid Song" icon took the stage at the PeoplesBank Arena in Hartford, Connecticut, for the first night of her sold-out Unraveled Tour. Surrounded by a literal field of wildflowers, she delivered a two-hour show that was absolutely giving main character energy.
The setlist tea
With three albums now under her belt, packing every single hit into one night is basically impossible, but she really ate. The setlist was heavy on her 2026 release, you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love, with only one track—the fan-favorite "What’s Wrong With Me"—missing from the lineup. As much as we’re obsessed with that one, it makes sense to skip it since it wouldn’t be the same without Robert Smith there to back her up.
Fans got a perfect mix of the new tracks, plus the emotional staples from GUTS and SOUR. She opened with "Drop Dead" and closed the night with "Expectations," which is a total mood. Even though she didn't include any covers, she made sure to squeeze in the non-album release "Serena Joy" to keep the loyalists happy. Whether you were there for the chart-toppers like "Drivers License" or just wanted to cry in a room full of people to "Deja Vu," the show was a major W.
Why it matters
After three full-length studio albums, this tour proves that Rodrigo has officially moved from a viral newcomer to a touring powerhouse capable of sustaining a massive, two-hour setlist that satisfies both casual fans and long-time stans.
