Artemas rocked a sold out night 6, of his LOVERCORE Tour taking place on February 28th, 2026 at The North Park Observatory in San Diego, California.

The night kicked off with the first opener Ella Boh, who got the crowd hyped up. She frequently ran up to the barricade singing close to the crowd as fans screamed with joy. She sang songs off of her 2025 EP, milk & honey.

Then the second opener Henry Morris lit up the stage with his high energy performance. He rocked the guitar across the stage as bold lights flashed. His album Late Bloomer, Early Death was released in 2025.

As Artemas came on stage to headline the show the crowd immediately started screaming with their hands up in the air. Between the vivid lighting tones, sick beats, and catchy lyrics San Diego truly brought the energy.

The LOVERCORE tour showcases Artemas’s album LOVERCORE, which was released on October 24th, 2025. LOVERCORE highlights his artistic identity style with emotional ballads, blending together feelings of vulnerability, love, and heartbreak to evolve his self-produced alt-pop sound. A couple of songs performed live on his tour of the LOVERCORE album include “superstar” and “u don’t have to tell me.”

Artemas fan Ava from San Diego was barricaded tonight and she has seen Artemas two times already. She stated, “I became an Artemas fan in 2023 after falling in love with his aesthetic. I love his music because it makes me feel confident, sexy, and sets the mood for a good night.” Artemas consistently interacted with the audience as he jumped to the beat of his lyrics and engaged with fans as he sang. From intense beats to the energetic lights fans confidently sang every lyric!

These fans brought amazing energy to the Artemas’s show in San Diego. If they come around again I would highly recommend going. What a fun night full of electric music and lively emotions!
