Key Background
Beatle legend Paul McCartney will once more hit the road with his very highly popularized “Got Back 2025” tour of North America. The tour begins on September 29 at Acrisure Arena in Palm Desert, California, and runs through November 25, ending with a two-night stand in Chicago. With 19 dates on the itinerary, this is McCartney’s first substantial return to large-stage touring in three years.
This tour leg is riding on the success of his early “Got Back” concerts compounded after the 2022 pandemic. What is unique about the 2025 tour is that McCartney is finally performing in Albuquerque and Palm Springs for the first time, and this provides tourists in these places with a lifetime experience of watching the music icon perform live. Other tour destinations on his agenda are flagship cities like Denver, Atlanta, Montreal, Nashville, and Las Vegas, further solidifying his across-the-board popularity geographically and by age.
McCartney’s surprise recent live shows earlier this year previewed 2025—intimate shows at New York’s Bowery Ballroom—pre-shipped anticipation for this goliath news. These subterranean shows were met with critical acclaim and created buzz for his eventual return to goliath arenas and stadiums.
The gig promises a fierce dose of Beatles essentials, Wings stuff and solo work, all helpfully supported by his own self-titled band and blistering Hot City Horns. Renowned for three-hour concert shows and omnipresent stage presence, McCartney is dedicated to delivering fan experiences with a span of decades of musical evolution.
Presale tickets go on sale to fans at 10 a.m. local time on July 15, with general tickets available July 18. With his worldwide fan base and place in rock history, tickets will be selling out quickly.
By performing “Got Back 2025,” Paul McCartney is back in the spotlight—finds his timelessness place in the middle of rock history.
