Following an electrifying performance at The Whisky on Los Angeles’ Sunset Strip, The Police today confirmed their highly-anticipated concert tour will begin on May 28th in Vancouver, playing arenas, some stadiums & making some special appearances throughout North America. The announcement was made via live webcast from the Whisky in LA Monday, Feb. 12th. If you missed it, watch the tour announcement webcast direct at ThePoliceTour.com! Some of the North American tour highlights announced include a headline performance at this year’s June 16th Bonnaroo Festival, an appearance at Boston’s historic Fenway Park on July 28th and two Madison Square Garden performances in New York City on August 1 and 3. Concert dates were also confirmed in Seattle, Denver, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Dallas, New Orleans, St. Louis, Toronto and Montreal. Arthur Fogel, Live Nation Chairman of Global Music, also announced that the tour will continue this fall with dates in the UK and Europe, including appearances in Holland, Germany, Italy and France with additional countries to be announced.
