Big Time Rush Brings the Party to Austin’s Moody Center

Big Time Rush turned Austin’s Moody Center into the ultimate pop party, delivering a massive, almost 40-song set that had Rushers dancing, screaming, and singing along from start to finish. For fans who grew up with the band, it was the perfect mix of nostalgia and fresh energy, proving that Kendall, James, Carlos, and Logan are not just back—they’re better than ever.

The night kicked off with an extra-special surprise for longtime fans. Katelyn Tarver, who fans remember as Jo on the original Nickelodeon Big Time Rush series, opened the show with a heartfelt set that showed off her stunning vocals. The crowd lit up seeing a familiar face from the show, and the love between her and the audience was undeniable.

Then came Stephen Kramer Glickman better known as Gustavo Rocque who had fans laughing nonstop with his signature humor and energy. His set was part comedy, part music, and part trip down memory lane, perfectly setting the stage for the main event.

When Kendall, James, Carlos, and Logan finally hit the stage, the place absolutely erupted. From the very first note, it was all high energy, nonstop singing, and dancing. The guys ran through hit after hit, mixing classics like “Boyfriend” and “Windows Down” with fan favorites and new tracks, making sure there was something for everyone.

One of the loudest moments of the night came when the band made their way off the main stage and performed a few songs on the B-stage right in the middle of the crowd. Fans were screaming, crying, and singing at the top of their lungs as Big Time Rush got up close and personal.

And just when it seemed like the night couldn’t get any more special, the guys brought a group of lucky fans on stage during “Worldwide Girl.” It turned into a truly magical moment, with the whole arena singing along and fans on stage living out their biggest dream.

As confetti rained down and the last notes rang through the Moody Center, fans left buzzing with excitement, memories, and the certainty that Big Time Rush is still one of the best pop acts around. Austin got a night full of joy, nostalgia, and pure pop magic and Rushers couldn’t have asked for anything more.
