Honestly, May 29 is not like your average day if you’re into politics or just watching what’s happening in the world. In 2025, there are huge things happening like Post Malone’s stadium show and a Halsey concert, both bringing crowds of young people together. And I’ve noticed that whenever you get thousands of people together, especially around election time or big decisions, politicians totally take notice.

Sometimes they’ll try and use stuff like this to their advantage—showing up at concerts, talking about issues that matter to those crowds, or even planning rallies nearby. I remember hearing about politicians trying to get on the news during big sports events to get more attention. It wouldn’t shock me at all if someone running for office in Pittsburgh or Raleigh tried to make a splash on May 29 with so many eyes on these cities. Plus, with the weather being weird that week, as the forecast says, it could mess up plans and end up in political debates because everything gets spun somehow.

It’s wild how pop culture dates can end up shaping real political energy, even when they aren’t about politics at all. So yeah, May 29 is a day to watch for politics, just because of all the attention and crowded places.
