The Cure will take to North America’s biggest arenas later this year, in their first tour on the continent since 2016. The English rock band will take its Songs of the Lost World tour, which swept the stages of Europe last year, to North America’s hot spots this summer.
The band’s travels are set to commence on May 10, with their opening show at New Orleans’ Smoothie King Center. The Cure will then perform in cities including Dallas, Phoenix, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Vancouver, Toronto, Boston, New York and Atlanta, among several others, before concluding their tour on July 1 at Miami’s Miami-Dade Arena. Notably, Scottish rock band Twilight Sad will open every show.
“The Cure have agreed all ticket prices, and apart from a few Hollywood Bowl charity seats, there will be no ‘platinum’ or ‘dynamically priced’ tickets on this tour,” the band noted in a statement. Tickets will be available for purchase via Ticketmaster Verified Fan on March 15 at 10 a.m. local time.
