Tom Jones at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles

Few voices in pop history carry the way Tom Jones' does, and on Monday, October 26, 2026, he brings it to one of the best outdoor rooms in the city. The Welsh singer is booked at the Greek Theatre for an evening show, a rare chance to hear a catalog that runs from "It's Not Unusual" to "Delilah" in a hillside amphitheatre under the October sky.

When: Monday, October 26, 2026, 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM Where: The Greek Theatre, 2700 N Vermont Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90027 Tickets: Through the AllEvents listing

What to expect

Jones has been performing for more than six decades, and the draw has never really been nostalgia alone. He is a big, theatrical vocalist who treats a room like a conversation, and the Greek's open-air bowl suits that style. Expect the well-known hits, a band behind him, and an audience that tends to sing the choruses back. The AllEvents listing does not publish a setlist, an opening act or a ticket price, so check the ticket page for the latest details before you go.

If you are scanning for things happening in Los Angeles this month, this is the marquee night-out pick for fans of classic pop, soul and big-voiced showmanship. It also suits a date night or a multigenerational group, since the songs span several generations of listeners.

Getting there

The Greek Theatre sits inside Griffith Park, off Vermont Avenue near the Los Feliz side of the park. Parking on site is limited and fills early on show nights, so arrive well before the 8:00 PM start and expect a walk or a shuttle from the lot. Rideshare drop-off is usually the least stressful option, though the line to leave afterward can be long. Evenings in the hills turn cool in late October, so bring a jacket or a layer you can carry.

Check the venue's own policies on bags, re-entry and seating before heading out, since rules vary by show. If you want to build a full night around the concert, the dining strip in nearby Los Feliz and Hollywood is a short drive away, though you will want to book early on a show night.

Why go

An outdoor Greek show is its own kind of event. The setting, the sound and the crowd make it feel more like a communal evening than a standard concert, and a performer with Jones' stage presence makes the most of it. For anyone who has only heard these songs on a playlist, seeing them delivered live in Griffith Park is the better version.
