U2 Announces ‘The Joshua Tree Tour’ 2017 Dates

U2 The Joshua Tree Tour 2017

U2 will be celebrating The Joshua Tree‘s 30th anniversary with an extensive tour throughout North America and Europe. The Joshua Tree Tour 2017 will kick off in Vancouver, BC at the BC Place Stadium on May 12th and hit cities including Los Angeles, Miami, and Boston, ultimately finishing up on August 1st in Brussels. U2 announced this anniversary tour will feature the band performing the full The Joshua Tree album each night, and the tour will mark their first ever headline appearance at the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival.

One Republic, The Lumineers, and Mumford & Sons will support U2 on the North American leg of the tour. Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will join the tour for the European leg. “It will be both a pleasure and an honour to play my part in what still remains the greatest show on earth,” said Noel Gallagher.


“It seems like we have come full circle from when The Joshua Tree songs were originally written, with global upheaval, extreme right wing politics and some fundamental human rights at risk,” said The Edge. “To celebrate the album – as these songs seem so relevant and prescient of these times too – we decided to do these shows, it feels right for now. We’re looking forward to it.”

“Recently I listened back to The Joshua Tree for the first time in nearly 30 years,” added Bono. “It’s quite an opera. A lot of emotions which feel strangely current, love, loss, broken dreams, seeking oblivion, polarisation… all the greats… I’ve sung some of these songs a lot… but never all of them. I’m up for it, if our audience is as excited as we are… it’s gonna be a great night. Especially when we play at home. Croke Park.. it’s where the album was born, 30 years ago.”
