In the context of live concerts, "see" is used more often than "watch." To refer to the viewing of movies, musicals, and plays, you can use both "see" and "watch." Ex: I'm going to see Ariana Grande live! Ex: I saw a movie with my friends. Ex: Did you see the new movie that came out? Ex: I want to watch the Avengers movie.
