Midway through Tate McRae’s sold out Madison Square Garden debut, the singer took a breather from her dance-heavy show, sat down onstage, and addressed the crowd. “To play this venue is one of my biggest dreams in the entire world,” she said emotionally. “I know so many of you have been here for so long — since I was 13 years old. I love you guys more than anything, and that’s what makes this such a special show to me.”
The Special MSG Performance
But MSG is the self-proclaimed “world’s most famous arena,” and artists often have something special in store.

McRae’s Energetic Performance
Sporting an army green two-piece outfit, McRae soared through her performance. Despite a minor microphone mishap, she flawlessly delivered songs like “Hurt My Feelings,” “What’s Your Problem?,” “Feel Like Shit,” and “Uh Oh,” engaging her dedicated fans, known as the “Tater Tots,” who sang along and mimicked her dance moves.
Special Moments on Stage
McRae slowed down the pace with “Calgary,” reflecting on her hometown, before picking up the energy with “Exes” and “We’re Not Alike.” The surprise appearance of Laroi on stage for a duet of “Without You” added a memorable touch to the evening.
An Unforgettable Encore
For the encore, McRae performed a new track, “It’s OK, I’m OK,” before wrapping up the night with her hit single “Greedy.” The audience left with the certainty that McRae’s Madison Square Garden debut was just the beginning of many more remarkable performances to come.
