Teddy Swims Brings The Ugly Tour to Philadelphia
Teddy Swims brought The Ugly Tour to Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia on October 10, 2026. What stood out most was the stage design. After watching Teddy’s career grow from 15 people in the crowd to 20,000, this show was epic to witness: it’s beautiful to see someone evolve over the years and still remain so true to themselves. The set felt like an inner look into his personal world, with meaningful names and attractions that mattered most to him.
I photographed the night with the Sony 70–200mm and 24–70mm lenses, and my favorite image is the one of him standing up in the skyline.
