The annual Z100 Jingle Ball took place at Madison Square Garden on December 8^th, 2017. After securing the highly-coveted tickets back in October, I can firmly say the entire night exceeded my expectations. During the four-and-a-half-hour celebration, the audience enjoyed electric performances from Ed Sheeran, The Chainsmokers, Sam Smith, Halsey, Fall Out Boy, Demi Lovato, Logic, Charlie Puth, Niall Horan, Camila Cabello, Liam Payne, Julia Michaels, Why Don’t We, and the headliner, Taylor Swift. Each act treated fans to a set that incorporated their hit singles, which caused the crowd to sing and dance all night long.

Without a doubt, this concert was unlike any other I attended before. It truly was a celebration for all the great music released this year. It’s one thing to hear a song you like being played on the radio, but to experience it live with 18,000 other fans is truly a euphoric experience. My personal favorites of the night were Taylor Swift, Halsey, Julia Michaels, Charlie Puth, and Camila Cabello. Each of these artists released music this year that I loved and listened to on repeat for months. In the end, attending the Jingle Ball was a spectacular experience. It was the perfect evening to celebrate the holiday season with the songs I listened to all year!
