Paul Simon Announces 18-Date North American Tour
Paul Simon, the 84-year-old Grammy-winning singer-songwriter and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, has announced a summer tour across the United States and Canada, marking his return to larger outdoor venues following a period of scaled-back performances due to hearing loss.
The 18-date North American leg of his A Quiet Celebration Tour begins on June 4 at Frost Amphitheater in Palo Alto, California, and concludes with two nights on July 17 and 18 at Ravinia in Highland Park, Illinois. Stops include high-profile amphitheaters such as the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on June 7, Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado, on June 12 and 13, and Forest Hills Stadium in Queens, New York, on July 8, a return to his home borough where he last performed in 2018. Other cities on the itinerary are San Diego; Kansas City, Missouri; Cincinnati and Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio; Rochester Hills, Michigan; Toronto, Ontario; Lenox, Massachusetts; Gilford, New Hampshire; Bethel, New York; Philadelphia; Raleigh, North Carolina; Atlanta; and Franklin, Tennessee. Tickets go on sale to the general public on February 6 at 10 a.m. local time through official channels and verified vendors.
