SOMBR Brings Fall Arena Tour to Anaheim’s Honda Center in October

04.13.26

Fresh off a standout debut at Coachella, GRAMMY-nominated artist SOMBR has announced his fall North American headline run, You Are the Reason, with a highly anticipated stop in Anaheim.

The 37-date tour includes an Orange County date on Oct. 9 at Honda Center, placing Anaheim front and center for local fans. Southern California shows also include Los Angeles and San Diego, but the Anaheim stop stands out as the only Orange County appearance on the tour.

The tour will travel through major cities across North America, including a hometown show in New York City at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 23, along with stops in Mexico City at the Pepsi Center and additional dates in key markets throughout the U.S. and Canada.

Support acts include Interpol, The Last Dinner Party, Tom Odell, Dove Cameron, Balu Brigada, King Princess, The Hellp, and Hannah Jadagu.

Artist presale begins Tuesday, April 14 at 10 a.m. local time, with general on-sale starting Friday, April 17 at 10 a.m. local time.

The announcement comes ahead of his upcoming single “Potential,” set to release Thursday, April 16, along with an official music video later that day. The track follows “Homewrecker,” which marked another strong showing on the Billboard charts for the rising artist.

SOMBR’s momentum has been building since his breakout hit “Back to Friends,” which reached the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and held strong for more than a year. His debut album I Barely Know Her further cemented his place on the global stage, blending indie rock with arena-scale pop.

A Night at Knife Pleat Paired With South Coast Repertory’s Eat Me

04.12.26

South Coast Repertory and Knife Pleat are teaming up for a limited culinary and theatre experience that pairs a Michelin-starred meal with select performances of Eat Me, the world premiere comedy by Talene Monahon.

The collaboration brings together one of the country’s leading regional theatres and one of Southern California’s most celebrated dining destinations for an experience that blends cuisine and live performance.

“Pairing dinner and a show is about as classic as a great night out can get. Pairing fine dining at Knife Pleat and a world-premiere comedy about obsessing over food is an invitation to participate in a meta-theatrical experience of art imitating life,” said Suzanne Appel. “Artistic Director David Ivers and I found in Knife Pleat’s Chef Tony Esnault and Restaurateur Yassmin Sarmadi co-conspirators in the expansion of theatre’s artistic possibilities. Our aim with this pairing is to create a unique experience that, from table to stage, captures our deeply human need to nourish our bodies and our souls.”

The $275 per person package begins with a 5 p.m. prix fixe menu at Knife Pleat, followed by premium tickets to a 7:30 p.m. performance. Upcoming dates include April 14, April 16, April 18, April 23, April 24, April 25, April 29, May 1 and May 2. Each evening is limited to 16 guests, with a maximum of six per party.

Eat Me centers on a group of food-obsessed characters navigating appetite, identity and connection. The play was inspired in part by Gourmand Syndrome, a rare condition linked to an intense fixation on fine food.

Knife Pleat, led by Tony Esnault and Yassmin Sarmadi, has held a Michelin star since 2021. The restaurant brings contemporary French, ingredient-driven cuisine to the penthouse level of South Coast Plaza.

Reservations are available through South Coast Repertory at scr.org or by phone. Subscribers may add the dining experience to existing tickets for $195, plus any applicable upgrade fees.
