Paris, France – Global superstar Miley Cyrus made a triumphant return to the City of Light on Wednesday, June 18, 2025, for an exclusive and intimate performance celebrating a monumental achievement in her career. Held at the historic Maxim’s venue, the concert was part of Spotify’s ongoing Billions Club Live series, a program designed to honor artists whose tracks have surpassed the remarkable milestone of one billion streams on the platform. The invite-only event saw Cyrus performing for just over 100 of her most dedicated Spotify Premium listeners, offering a rare and personal experience.
This performance marked a significant moment, being her first concert in Paris in 11 years, a city that holds particular importance as one of her top 10 streaming markets globally. The evening was not only a celebration of past success but also a look towards the future, with the announcement of an upcoming concert film capturing the special night.
A Night of Billion-Stream Hits
The setlist for the evening was a curated selection of hits that underscored why Cyrus is one of the world’s most streamed artists. Kicking off the performance, Cyrus chose “Flowers,” the lead single from her critically acclaimed album “Endless Summer Vacation,” a track that holds the distinction of being the fastest song in Spotify history to reach one billion streams. The energy in the room was palpable as the opening notes of the global phenomenon resonated through the ornate venue.
Throughout the night, Cyrus delivered powerful renditions of other songs that have achieved the prestigious Billions Club status. These included the emotional ballad “Wrecking Ball,” which remains a fan favorite and streaming giant, as well as the soulful “Angels Like You.” She also performed “Nothing Breaks Like a Heart,” her collaboration with Mark Ronson, showcasing her versatility across genres.
A particularly poignant moment came during a thoughtfully crafted medley that fused the inspirational anthem “The Climb” with the infectious energy of “We Can’t Stop.” This pairing highlighted the evolution of her career while paying homage to beloved tracks from different eras. Beyond the Billions Club catalog, Cyrus also treated the select audience to performances of tracks from her new album, “Something Beautiful,” offering a glimpse into her latest musical direction and adding an element of fresh material to the retrospective set.
An Intimate Parisian Setting
Choosing Maxim’s in Paris for this event added a layer of historical elegance and exclusivity. The iconic venue, known for its opulent decor and rich history, provided a starkly intimate contrast to the massive arenas Cyrus typically plays. With attendance limited to just over 100 top Spotify Premium listeners, the atmosphere was exceptionally personal, allowing fans to connect with the artist in a way rarely possible.
The selection of Paris for this installment of the Billions Club Live series was also significant. France ranks among the top 10 countries globally for Miley Cyrus’s streaming audience, underscoring the strong connection she shares with her French fanbase. For many attendees, this concert was a long-awaited moment, marking Cyrus’s first live performance in the French capital since her ‘Bangerz’ tour visited the city back in 2014. The 11-year gap since her last Paris show heightened the anticipation and made the intimate return all the more special.
From Stage to Screen: The Upcoming Concert Film
Adding to the excitement of the evening was the official announcement that the performance was being captured for a forthcoming concert film. Titled “Billions Club Live with Miley Cyrus: A Concert Film,” the project promises to bring the exclusive Parisian experience to a wider audience. Spotify confirmed that the film will feature the full concert performance from Maxim’s, allowing viewers to witness the energy and artistry displayed on the night.
In addition to the live set, the film is expected to include exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, offering fans a deeper look into the preparation, atmosphere, and personal moments surrounding the event. This provides an opportunity for her global fanbase, particularly those unable to attend the highly limited Paris show, to feel a part of the celebration. The film is scheduled to premiere on the Spotify platform later this summer, giving fans something concrete to anticipate in the coming months.
Spotify’s Billions Club Series Expands
The Paris concert with Miley Cyrus represents the second installment in Spotify’s innovative Billions Club concert series. This initiative was launched to physically celebrate the monumental streaming achievements of artists on the platform. The inaugural event in the series featured global superstar The Weeknd, who performed for an exclusive audience in Los Angeles in 2024. The expansion of the series to Paris with an artist of Cyrus’s stature highlights Spotify’s commitment to recognizing artists reaching the billion-stream benchmark and creating unique experiences for both the artists and their most dedicated listeners. By taking the series international, Spotify is demonstrating the global reach and impact of its streaming milestones and the artists who achieve them.
Conclusion
Miley Cyrus’s exclusive Spotify Billions Club Live concert in Paris was a memorable convergence of artistic achievement, historical setting, and fan appreciation. Celebrating her remarkable streaming success with an intimate performance for her top listeners in a city that holds a special place in her career, the event underscored her enduring global appeal.
