The 29-year-old Grammy-winning artist delighted fans with a set of his greatest hits, remixes, and fan-favorite tracks just ahead of the 2024 NHL All-Star Weekend.

This marks Bieber’s first live set since the cancellation of his Justice World Tour in 2022. The tour came to an abrupt halt following the artist’s diagnosis with Ramsay Hunt syndrome in June 2022. Bieber cited the toll of touring on his health as the reason for calling off the remaining dates. Since then, he has only made brief appearances on stage, including a notable performance at Don Toliver’s Rolling Loud set in March 2023.
