Bruce Springsteen and E Street Band Announce 2025 World Tour Following Hiatus
September 28, 2023 – Washington, D.C. – Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will launch a 2025 world tour, their first extended series of shows since wrapping a year-long hiatus related to peptic ulcer disease. The announcement was made this morning by Springsteen’s management. The tour itinerary includes 35 dates across North America and Europe, beginning in Tampa, Florida, on March 19, 2025, and concluding in Oslo, Norway, on July 25, 2025. This follows the cancellation of 23 shows in 2023 after Springsteen, 74, was hospitalized for treatment of a peptic ulcer. The tour will cover major cities such as Los Angeles, New York, London, and Paris, featuring material from the band’s recent album, “Letter to You,” and classic catalog. Tickets go on sale October 5, 2023. Springsteen’s representatives cited full recovery as the reason for the resumption of live performances. The tour is expected to generate significant economic impact, with venues like Madison Square Garden and London’s O2 Arena already reporting high advance demand.
