After more than a year of uncertainty and very little live music, continued vaccination rollouts and dipping COVID-19 case numbers are paving the way for the return of tours and festivals in 2022 [Note: Not vaccinated yet? Find out where to get your free vaccine here].
Much like the cascade of cancellations we saw this time last year, new tour announcements have been pouring in—and if you’re like us, the sheer volume might have you feeling a little overwhelmed.
As you adjust your concert intake—and its accompanying planning—from 0 to 100 after a quiet, pandemic-dictated year, we at Live For Live Music have put together this handy guide to new tour and festival announcements.
Much like we did for the ever-developing coronavirus picture throughout the pandemic in our COVID-19 Concert Cancellation Tracker, we will update this piece with an array of new announcements on a regular basis. Take a scroll and see what new events are coming up.
This is not meant to be an exhaustive list of every concert announced. Instead, we hope to provide a broad overview of the week’s developments in the return of live music—and, hopefully, a helpful resource for you while you put together your personal concert calendar for 2021. It’s looking like a busy one.
See you on tour…
