Besides the excitement of attending live concerts, several benefits are gained by concertgoers. One such benefit is stress reduction. Experts have shown that attending a musical performance suppresses the release of the stress hormone known as cortisol. It also results in lower blood pressure and reduced heart rate.

Moreover, a study has shown that attending music concerts regularly enhances a person's sense of mental well-being. Attending music concerts also has an almost therapeutic effect on some people, as it gives them a chance to reflect on their lives or provokes certain feelings when they hear various songs or pieces of music.

Because dopamine and endorphins are released in the brains of people while they are listening to live music, pain is naturally blocked or lessened by these hormones.

Other benefits of attending live concerts include networking, discovering new music, and of course, boosting one's spirits.
