Music superstar Cyndi Lauper is closing out her year-long Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour with the kind of all-star sendoff only she could inspire — and she’s doing it in style with a little help from fellow icon Cher.
CBS will air A Grammy Salute to Cyndi Lauper: Live From the Hollywood Bowl on Sunday, October 5, from 8-10 p.m. ET/PT and stream the next day on Paramount+. Taped over two nights at the legendary Hollywood Bowl, the special honors Lauper’s music and her 2025 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction with an unparalleled guest list.

As Lauper wrote on Instagram, “Mark your calendars for what’s sure to be an unforgettable evening of music, tribute, and pure artistic excellence at the iconic Hollywood Bowl.”
