String players can use lighter gauge strings should they need to tune much higher than normal, or concerts should just not go ahead if the temperature isn't comfortable for anyone involved.
If anything, stringed instruments tend to go flat as the temperature goes up as the strings slacken off, whereas wind instruments are more affected by the lower density of warmer air which makes them go sharp or the higher density of colder air which makes them go flat.
