The sentence is When the famous performers came to town, we went to his concert.
Is HIS CONCERT a pronoun adjective or noun?

"His" would be a posessive adjective (modifying "concert".)
Posessive adjectives are often confused with posessive pronouns, and "his" can be used as either. In this case it clearly modifies the noun "concert" so it is an adjective.

'his concert' has two words in it.
his --- is a pronoun and 'concert'- ------is a noun
a pronoun is a word used instead of the noun.....
and a noun is a word used to describe the names of person,place or thing.
an adjective is a word which is used to describe a noun.
so, his is a pronoun n concert is a noun without any doubt. don't be confused, dear.

concert=noun
His=pronoun
an adjective would be, say "noisy concert"
where concert's a noun and noisy is an adjective.
Adjective=description of a quality or physical aspect of a noun (green, fast, loud)
