It’s been five years since we last heard from the Arctic Monkeys. After touring in support of their fifth studio LP AM in 2013-2014, the band members redirected their focuses to side-projects. Flash forward to present day, and they’re back in full swing with a new album in the works (expect it to drop later this year) and a full tour schedule. While the newly added North American dates are scattered across the next four months, in between their previously scheduled European dates, Arctic Monkeys have confirmed 11 dates in the United States and Canada, with more expected to be added soon.
First up, the band will hit Hollywood Forever Cemetery on May 5 in Los Angeles. Over a month later, they’ll return to the States to headline Firefly Festival in Dover, Delaware, before catapulting into action at the Red Hat Amphitheater in Raleigh, NC, Ascend Amphitheater in Nashville, TN, and Coca Cola Roxy Theatre in Atlanta, GA. Then, toward the end of July, the band will regroup at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens, NY, TD Garden in Boston, MA, The Anthem in Washington, DC, and Petersen Events Center in Pittsburgh, PA. August will see Arctic Monkeys perform at the Masonic Temple Theatre in Detroit, MI and Air Canada Centre in Toronto, ON.
Tickets go on sale this Friday, March 16th at 10:00 a.m. local time. See below for the full schedule. Head to the band’s website for more information.
