Matthew Healy of The 1975 headlines day three of the 2019 Bunbury Music Festival in Cincinnati, OH on Sunday, June 2.
The hits keep on coming for The 1975. Still in the midst of a summer chock-full-of festival appearances, the band has booked five North American arena dates at the end of 2019.
The new gigs kick off Nov. 16 in Camden, N.J.’s BB&T Pavilion, and hits North Carolina, South Carolina, and Louisiana before wrapping Dec. 1 in Broomfield, Colo.’s 1STBANK Center.
Fans can request tickets now through The 1975, and confirmed requests will be charged and tickets provided between July 15-16. The general onsale begins July 18.
Prior to the headline tour the group has festival appearances planned throughout Europe, including a stop at Mad Cool Festival in Madrid, Spain, July 13. The band will also hit Lollapalooza Paris, SZiget Festival in Hungary, and Reading and Leeds Festivals in the U.K., among others.
The band ran through North America earlier this year with Pale Waves and No Rome, bringing in more than $200,000 in every market reported. The venues on that tour varied from theatres, amphitheatres, and arenas. A major payday came May 14 at Express Live! in Columbus, Ohio, when the group grossed $419,805 on 9,329 reported tickets. The tour also brought in $705,235 over two nights at Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco April 22-23.
The 1975 is still pushing tunes off the 2018 album A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships. The group won two BRIT awards in February on the back of that album: British Group and British Album of the Year.
