Van Halen concert chronology

The Van Halen 2015 Tour was a North American concert tour during the summer and fall of 2015 by the hard rock band Van Halen.[1] This tour was in support of the group's live album, Tokyo Dome Live in Concert, recorded during the band's previous tour.

History

On March 24, 2015, the official Van Halen website was updated to announce a concert tour to take place during the summer and fall of 2015, primarily in outdoor venues.[2] The band also announced that they would be performing on television for the first time, with performances on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on March 30,[3] and on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on April 2.[4]

The Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band served as the opening act for all dates except for the September 19th show in Atlanta.

The tour grossed 26 million dollars covering 39 cities and 41 shows. [5]
