Bruce Springsteen is taking the E Street Band on the road for the 'Land of Hope and Dreams' tour, which is expected to be one of his most politically charged tours yet. The tour will kick off in Minneapolis on March 31 and wrap up in Washington, D.C. on May 27, with stops in major cities across the country. Tickets have been in high demand, with some shows already selling out, but fans can still find tickets on secondary ticketing sites like StubHub, SeatGeek, and VividSeats, though prices vary considerably by venue.

Why it matters

Springsteen has never shied away from using his platform to address political and social issues, and this tour is expected to be no exception. The tour's announcement was particularly charged, with the band billing it as a '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.' This tour comes at a time of heightened political tensions in the U.S., making Springsteen's message and the fan demand for his shows all the more significant.

The details

The tour will kick off in Minneapolis on March 31, where Springsteen recently released the anti-ICE protest anthem 'Streets of Minneapolis.' The Boss will then swing through the West Coast, South, Midwest, and East Coast, before wrapping up the tour in Washington, D.C. on May 27. Ticket prices vary considerably by venue, with the most expensive seats at Madison Square Garden being limited mostly to resale, while the upper sections of the Los Angeles shows are still available on Ticketmaster for around $85. Secondary ticketing sites like StubHub, SeatGeek, and VividSeats are another option for sold-out shows or sections, with prices ranging from around $120 for the upper sections of the Minneapolis show to $865 for GA floor seats.

  • The tour will kick off on March 31, 2026 in Minneapolis, MN.
