[UPDATE]:Â Bob Dylan has continued to tack on additional dates to his originally outlined spring 2024 Rough and Rowady Ways Tour itinerary. The run will now extend into April with new shows throughout the South and Southeast.
Since announcing the initial dates in late January, the legendary singer-songwriter has added new concerts in Asheville, NC (3/21), Louisville, KY (3/23–3/24), Memphis, TN (3/29–3/30), New Orleans (4/1), Lafayette, LA (4/2), Dallas (4/4), and Austin (4/5–4/6). Tickets for the Louisiana and Texas shows will go on sale on Friday, February 9th via Dylan’s website. Tickets to all other shows are now on sale.
These additions come after Dylan’s original tour announcement was presented with the message, “Some dates were previously published in error. We apologize and will post updates as shows are confirmed.” It is unclear how many more shows he plans to add, but this week’s newly announced concerts mark the second round of additions to the original schedule. The Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour began in 2021 and is advertised to end this year. See below for the most up-to-date list of concerts.
[1/23/24]: Bob Dylan will take his Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour into the new year with a fresh batch of spring 2024 U.S. tour dates. The trek behind Dylan’s 2020 album of the same name began in 2021 and has been advertised as lasting through 2024.
The new stretch of concerts will kick off with two nights in Fort Lauderdale, FL on March 1st and 2nd. The Nobel Prize-winning singer-songwriter will go on play a smattering of two-night stands throughout the Southeast including stops in Clearwater, FL (3/5–3/6), Orlando (3/9–3/10), and Athens, GA (3/14–3/15) before wrapping in Fayetteville, NC (3/18).
Some outlets have reported additional shows throughout the Southeast extending into April, but they are not found on Dylan’s website. As of publication time for this article, the website features a note reading, “Some dates were previously published in error. We apologize and will post updates as shows are confirmed.”
Dylan returned to U.S. stages last fall after a lengthy run of international dates. While abroad in Japan, Dylan added several covers by the Grateful Dead and Bob Weir to his repertoire including “Truckin'”, “Brokedown Palace”, “Stella Blue”, and “Only A River”. Upon returning to the U.S., Zimmy brought the covers—likely more recognizable to domestic audiences—with him for a run of shows through the Midwest. Prior to the fall tour, Dylan made a surprise appearance with Tom Petty‘s (and his own) former backing band The Heartbreakers at Farm Aid.
Tickets for all newly announced Bob Dylan 2024 Rough and Rowdy Ways tour dates will go on sale on Friday, January 26th. Visit Dylan’s website for on-sale information by show. Click below for a list of confirmed dates.
