Additionally, through a partnership with Bands intown, upcoming concerts will appear more frequently across artist videos, Shorts, and channels.
To round things out, YouTube Music is also rolling out notifications to keep fans updated on upcoming releases, merchandise, and event dates—ensuring music lovers stay connected.
