Court filings reveal Donald Trump talked to Live Nation chief Michael Rapino a few days before the Justice Department settled the antitrust case. The settlement ended a long probe into that promoter’s market power. Live Nation still faces a UK and European antitrust trial that will begin later this year.
The promoter’s influence appears in upcoming tour news. Keni Titus will open for Role Model and Polyphia on their 2026 world tours, such as dates in the UK and Europe. In Abu Dhabi, Etihad Park has been renamed Etihad Live as part of a revamp aimed at larger live‑music events.
