Guns N’ Roses Going Global Again For 2023 World Tour
Touring powerhouse Guns N’ Roses will return to the road for a continent-crossing world tour this summer that includes at least one show at an ancient relic.
The juggernauts last took a turn in 2021 for the “We’re F’n Back” tour, which saw the legends finish seventh in that year’s annual ranking, grossing $47.3 million on 351,339 tickets sold over 23 shows in 21 cities. GNR is the No. 23-ranked grossing act of the Pollstar era, grossing more than three-quarters of a billion dollars in that timeframe.
This year’s loop starts June 5 at Tel Aviv’s Park Hayarkon and then heads across the Mediterranean to Madrid for a European leg that includes a previously announced play at Hyde Park in London along with stops at Circo Massimo in Rome (perhaps better known in the original Latin: Circus Maximus). The European run concludes at Athens’ Olympic Stadium July 22. The tour then heads to North America, starting August 5 at Medavie Blue Cross Stadium in Moncton, New Brunswick. The North American run has shows at Fenway in Boston and Chicago’s Wrigley Field, among others. It’s a mix of arenas and stadiums, typically those built for baseball or soccer, though the band will play East Rutherford, NJ’s MetLife Stadium August 15. There’s also a play at San Antonio’s sui generis Alamodome. The tour wraps up October 16 at Vancouver’s BC Place. See the full routing below.
The band’s Nightrain presale begins February 22 at 10 a.m. local time. The general onsale for all dates will start February 24 at 10 a.m. local time on gunsnroses.com.
