An Evening with the Enchantress of Rock: Stevie Nicks in Portland
Prepare to be transported through decades of musical magic as Stevie Nicks, the legendary singer-songwriter and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee (twice over—once with Fleetwood Mac, once as a solo artist), takes the stage at Moda Center at the Rose Quarter in Portland on Wednesday, October 1, 2025 at 7:00 PM. With over 220 million albums sold worldwide across her solo and band career, Stevie remains a culturaland musical icon whose presence elevates every venue she graces.
Stevie’s voice remains unmistakable—ethereal, empowering, and deeply resonant. Her setlists typically interweave timeless Fleetwood Mac classics—“Dreams,” “Rhiannon,” “Landslide,” “Gold Dust Woman”—with solo hits like “Edge of Seventeen,” “Stand Back,” “Bella Donna”, and emotionally charged stories behind their creation. Recent tours have also included a few rare deep cuts, acoustic moments, and surprise covers, making each show a unique journey into her storied catalog.
Fans on Reddit consistently praise the experience:
“Every show I have attended … truly encapsulates the audience with her voice … her setlist included Gypsy, Dreams … Landslide … made it feel more like she was really there”.
Attendees also note her endearing interaction with fans—flower crowns are often accepted and worn, mike stand ribbons handed out, set lists shared with those close to the stage . It’s this connection that makes the show feel personal, almost sacred.
In August 2025, thousands of fans worried—but Stevie fractured her shoulder earlier in the summer and postponed August/September dates. Great news: her tour resumes on October 1 in Portland, and this date is unaffected.
