The last Sunday in May in Łódź is going to be loud, energetic, and very hot. On May 31, Atlas Arena will transform into the global capital of R&B and pop. Two icons of early 2000s music will take the stage together. – NE-YO and AKON, who are coming to Poland as part of their joint “Nights Like This Tour 2026.”
The biggest R&B and pop hits will be performed at Atlas Arena
Łódź has been added to the itinerary of one of the biggest concert tours of 2026, organized by Live Nation. NE-YO and AKON have joined forces for their joint tour, “Nights Like This.”
During the concert at Atlas Arena, fans will hear both artists’ biggest hits, including “So Sick,” “Closer,” “Miss Independent,” “Smack That,” “Lonely,” and “Right Now (Na Na Na).”
The artists will perform in a dynamic "back-and-forth" format, creating a show brimming with nostalgia, club energy, and the biggest R&B and pop hits.
