Tom Petty expands 40th anniversary tour




Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers have expanded their 40th anniversary tour on North America with the addition of four new shows.

The band have added second nights at the TD Garden in Boston, MA on July 21 following a concert there on July 20, and at the Wells Fargo Arena in Philadelphia, PA on July 29 where they’ll also appear on July 1.

New stops include an August 17 event at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, BC, and an August 19 date at Safeco Field in Seattle, WA with The Lumineers opening.

Tickets for the newly announced shows (except Vancouver) will go on sale February 13 at 10 a.m. local time, with Vancouver tickets available February 14 at 10 a.m. local time.

Fan Club presales and premium packages are also available, with full details at tompetty.com

The tour marks the 40th anniversary of the 1976 release of the band’s self-titled debut, which delivered instant Petty classics like “Breakdown” and “American Girl.”

Petty will be honored as the 2017 MusiCares Person of the Year at an event in Los Angeles, CA on February 10.

The rocker recently released two companion vinyl box sets featuring the group’s entire studio album catalogue alongside three solo records.
