Barry Manilow Announces His Last Greensboro Concert for April 24

Barry Manilow Announces His Last Greensboro Concert for April 24

Some goodbyes arrive with fireworks and some with a ballad. Barry Manilow has confirmed his final Greensboro performance for April 24, 2026 at First Horizon Coliseum, billed explicitly and without euphemism as Manilow: The Last Greensboro Concert. For a city that has hosted Manilow multiple times across his career — a career now spanning more than five decades — the marquee reads like an official farewell note from an artist who has earned the right to set the tone.

Manilow's Greensboro stops have always sold unusually well for a mid-sized Southern market. The coliseum holds roughly 21,000, and the last Manilow appearance drew a near-capacity crowd of fans who sang every word of "Copacabana" loud enough to rattle the rafters. Expect ballads, the hits, and the kind of emotional overtones that come with an artist playing a farewell show in a city that has always shown up.

If you're going: the coliseum is a short walk from the city's hotel cluster on West Lee Street. Tickets have been moving quickly since the announcement. Arrive early for the tribute video montage that typically opens the show.
