Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are heading back out on the road, including a Pittsburgh stop this spring.
Springsteen, 76, and his band are launching the American run of their “Land of Hope & Dreams” tour, with a May 19 show at PPG Paints Arena.
“We are living through dark, disturbing and dangerous times, but do not despair — the cavalry is coming,” Springsteen said in a statement. “Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band will be taking the stage this spring from Minneapolis to California to Texas to Washington, D.C. for the Land of Hope And Dreams American Tour. We will be rocking your town in celebration and in defense of America — American democracy, American freedom, our American Constitution and our sacred American dream — all of which are under attack by our wannabe king and his rogue government in Washington, D.C. Everyone, regardless of where you stand or what you believe in, is welcome — so come on out and join the United Free Republic of E Street Nation for an American spring of Rock ‘n’ Rebellion! I’ll see you there!”
Springsteen released the song “Streets of Minneapolis” in January, criticizing ICE actions in Minneapolis.
Tickets go on sale to the public at noon Friday at ticketmaster.com.
His last visit to Pittsburgh came in 2024, when he played shows on Aug. 15 and 18 at PPG Paints Arena.
The tour kicks off March 31 in Minneapolis and runs through May 27 in Washington, D.C.
