While the music world continues to mourn the passing of beloved icon Olivia Newton-John, who passed away in August 2022, her timeless music and enduring spirit are being kept alive through a series of dedicated tribute performances. Fans hoping to experience the magic of her incredible catalog live will have opportunities to do so through various “Olivia Newton-John Tribute” shows scheduled across North America in 2024 and 2025.
These tribute concerts aim to celebrate the multifaceted career of the British-Australian superstar, who charmed audiences for over five decades with hits spanning pop, country, and film soundtracks. From the infectious energy of “Physical” and the romantic ballad “I Honestly Love You” to the unforgettable duets from “Grease” like “You’re the One That I Want” and “Summer Nights,” these shows promise to be a nostalgic journey through her remarkable discography.
One prominent tribute, “The Olivia Show,” fronted by singer Annie Aiello, has been gaining significant recognition, even earning nominations for “Tribute Artist of the Year” by the Josie Music Awards. This show is designed to be a comprehensive celebration, featuring costume changes, video elements, and a band comprised of experienced musicians. “Always Olivia,” another highly anticipated tribute, will be making an appearance at the Belfry Music Theatre in Delavan, USA, in September 2025. This show is notable for having the support of Olivia Newton-John’s friends and family and has also raised over $23,000 for the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness and Research Centre, continuing her legacy of advocacy.
