Legendary rock band Foreigner have announced their farewell tour. The trek is set to kick off on July 6, 2023, at Atlanta’s Ameris Bank Amphitheatre.
For the first leg of the U.S. tour, the band will be joined by Loverboy. The 32-date trek will wrap up on September 3 in Holmdel, New Jersey.
Tickets go on sale on November 18, 2022 at LiveNation.com.
“Foreigner is a completely revitalized band with a whole new energy that has won the hearts of our fans all over the world, and I want to go out while the band is still at the top of its game,” guitarist Mick Jones told Billboard.
He added, “I had the idea that was to become Foreigner back in 1974, and I was 30 years old at the time. By the end of our farewell tour, over 50 years will have passed, and that’s a long time to be on the road.”
Kelly Hansen, Foreigner’s frontman, says that he and Jones had been discussing the farewell tour for a while, adding, “It’s a very difficult decision to come to.”
