Three of Summer’s Most Highly Anticipated Tours

Is there a better time to catch a great concert than during the summer? It’s that time of year when bands pack up and tour across country, the weather is optimum for outdoor performances, when music festivals with stacked lineups seem to crop up like weeds, and when you and your friends can see the best acts in the business perform live.

Here are three of the most highly anticipated tours that you do not want to miss out on this summer:

The Rolling Stones. That’s right, these rock stars are still filling stadiums with screaming fans and touring after all of these years. One of the most anticipated international tours of the season, The Rolling Stones’ “50 and Counting Tour” has already hit major U.S. cities like Oakland, CA, and Boston. This isn’t your dad’s rock concert. These rock and roll legends have been entertaining audiences for more than 50 years, and are just as talented and fearless as ever. Find tickets and dates on the band’s website. 

Best Coast. Los Angeles duo Bethany Cosentino and Bobb Bruno, also known as Best Coast, will be hitting the road this summer, touring North America and performing songs from their past albums and off their most recent EP. The surf rock band is scheduled to stop in over twenty cities, starting on the east coast before making their way back west. If you catch one of their energetic, dance-worthy shows, you might also get to see Belle and Sebastian, Bleached, Guards, and Lovely Bad Things, other bands that are set to share the stage with headliner Best Coast on a number of dates. Check out the band’s touring schedule on their website. 


Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z. Just when you thought that Justin Timberlake’s collaboration with rapper Jay-Z for his latest album couldn’t get any better, the two decided to go on tour together. These iconic performers are sure to pack stadiums this summer on their “Legends of the Summer” tour, where they will share the stage at huge venues in more than a dozen cities across the country. Visit JT’s official website for all the details! 

Have fun this season catching all of the best summer shows!
