Dave Matthews Band Embarking On 32-Date Tour, Including First Show At Kia Forum In 27 Years


Building on a successful run in 2024 that included European dates, Dave Matthews Band is back on the road this year with spring and summer shows across the U.S. and Canada as well as festival performances.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Famers will perform at New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival on April 27 and Lovin’ Life Festival on May 4 in Charlotte before opening their Live Nation-promoted tour at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts in Bethel, New York, on May 24. The routing includes concerts at PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, New Jersey; Alpharetta, Georgia’s Ameris Bank Amphitheatre; Budweiser Stage in Toronto; and Inglewood, California’s Kia Forum, marking the band’s first concert at the iconic venue since 1998.

The band will perform two-night stands at Credit One Stadium in Charleston, South Carolina; Chicago’s Huntington Bank Pavilion at Northerly Island; Ruoff Music Center in Noblesville, Indiana; Richmond’s Allianz Amphitheater at Riverfront; Broadview Stage at SPAC in Saratoga Springs, New York; BankNH Pavilion in Gilford, New Hampshire; and Camden, New Jersey’s Freedom Mortgage Pavilion. The tour wraps up with three consecutive nights at The Gorge Amphitheatre in Quincy, Washington, Aug. 29-31.

The festival appearances and dates in the routing below will be the only Dave Matthews Band dates for 2025, according to a release announcing the tour.

Presale tickets for DMB Warehouse Fan Association members are now available via davemattehwsband.com/warehouse, and the general onsale begins Feb. 21 at 10 a.m. local time. For information about the tour and the band, visit davematthewsband.com.

With their return to the Los Angeles area and the Kia Forum, the band pledged $500,000 to support wildfire relief efforts through their Bama Works nonprofit. Dave Matthews will also perform a set alongside John Mayer at the FireAid benefit concert at the arena on Jan. 30.

As longtime advocates for sustainability, Dave Matthews Band is partnering with Live Nation venues to minimize the environmental footprint of this year’s tour. The septet was successful in its “On The Road To Zero Waste Tour” initiative with more than 90% of fan-generated waste reused, composted, recycled or donated. The band also has a partnership with REVERB to make their concerts more sustainable and with The Nature Conservancy’s Plant a Billion Trees campaign to support reforestation.

Dave Matthews Band is one of the most successful modern touring acts with a total gross surpassing $1.1 billion since 1999, according to Pollstar Boxoffice. The band performed two nights at Madison Square Garden in November and earned $4,223,097 off 31,871 tickets sold across both shows.

The band is repped by Wasserman Music in North America and by International Talent Booking in other areas. DMB is managed by Coran Capshaw and Patrick Jordan of Red Light Management.
