The 22 dates commence November 2 in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., and continue through December 9, when the tour wraps in the Washington, D.C., area. The Bravery open many of the shows but The Raveonettes appear on nine dates.
Depeche Mode’s European trek kicks off January 13 in Dresden, Germany, and will hit arenas and stadiums in 38 cities before it concludes at London’s Wembley Arena April 3.
