Aerosmith Concert Schedule for 2024 and 2025: Peace Out – The Farewell Tour
On May 1, 2023, Aerosmith announced their farewell tour on Instagram with the following message: “PEACE OUT! After 50 years, 10 world tours, and playing for over 100 million fans… It’s time for one last go!“. One of the most significant American rock bands in history announced their final tour with a special announcement video. A stunning production featuring celebrities like Terry Crews, Ringo Starr, Eminem, Kelly Clarkson, Slash, Bill Burr, Dolly Parton, and more, all expressing disbelief about the farewell tour. The video manages to be both funny and touching.
The band postponed their remaining “Peace Out” tour dates in September 2023 after Steven Tyler fractured his larynx and sustained vocal cord injuries. Initially, they postponed several shows, expecting to resume in 30 days. However, when Tyler’s injury was found to be worse than anticipated, the tour was further delayed to 2024.
In April 2024, Aerosmith announced the rescheduled dates for their “Peace Out Tour.” Each night, the band will pay homage to five decades of its groundbreaking hits as it celebrates over fifty years as America’s greatest rock band.
