The 17-date trek, which will feature the only headlining tour dates the band will play in 2020, kicks off with a July 10-11 engagement at Folsom Field in Boulder, Colorado, and winds down with an August 7-8 stand at historic Fenway Park in Boston.

Other stops on the outing include a pair of shows at Chicago’s Wrigley Field on July 24 and 25, a July 17 concert at Atlanta’s Truist Park and an August 1 performance at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium, just outside of New York City.
