Jonas Brothers’ Concert in Portland Features Unexpected Stage Fire

During the Jonas Brothers’ concert on September 20, 2023, at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon, an unexpected fire broke out on stage. The incident occurred on an upper platform, where footage shared on social media showed flames igniting briefly. Fortunately, none of the band members, comprised of Kevin, Joe, and Nick Jonas, were near the flames at the time, and the fire was quickly extinguished, allowing the performance to continue without further disruption.
The Jonas Brothers are currently on their 20th anniversary tour, which has been highly anticipated by fans. While the production includes pyrotechnics during certain songs, such as their hit “Burnin’ Up,” it remains unclear if the fire was related to these special effects. The group has not publicly commented on the incident.
Ahead of the concert, Nick Jonas expressed his enthusiasm for the event through Instagram Stories, sharing a selfie from the airport and stating, “Pumped for the show tonight!” The tour, titled JONAS20: Greetings From Your Hometown Tour, kicked off in August at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium and has received positive feedback from audiences.
In December 2023, during a concert in Brooklyn, Nick announced the special anniversary series of shows, stating, “In 2025, it’ll be the 20-year anniversary of this band. We’re gonna do this thing again!” His heartfelt message acknowledged the fans’ support, emphasizing how much their presence means to the band.
The concert series has also featured exciting collaborations, including a reunion with Demi Lovato at the MetLife Stadium show. Lovato joined the brothers to perform songs from their shared history, highlighting the strong connections formed through their careers. She later described the reunion as “so healing” and confirmed that she would be involved in the production of Camp Rock 3, alongside the Jonas Brothers.
As the tour progresses, the Jonas Brothers continue to celebrate their two-decade milestone in the music industry, engaging with fans and delivering memorable performances. The Portland concert served as another reminder of their enduring appeal and the excitement surrounding their anniversary celebrations.
