With tons of new music out this summer, musicians are hitting the road on tours.  Over the next few months, you can catch Ed Sheeran,  Taylor Swift and many more artists as they perform in various Canadian cities.  We’ve highlighted some of our top picks below.

Eagles

The death of the band’s co-founder Glenn Frey has not deterred these country-rock vets from returning to the road. The Eagles will be on tour this summer with Deacon Frey, who is Glenn’s son, and Vince Gill. The band with California roots will play at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto on July 15th and July 17th.

Dave Matthews Band

The Dave Matthews Band has become a somewhat annual summer event as Canadians become accustomed and excited for their tours to be announced. The beloved band will be out on the road promoting their newest studio album Come Tomorrow, which is their first album since 2012. The band is set to play Budweiser Stage (previously known as Molson Amphitheatre) on July 10th and the Bluesfest in Ottawa on July 11th.

Foo Fighters

The Foo Fighters will be on tour to perform their latest album. The album Concrete and Gold can be heard at the Rogers Centre on July 12th in Toronto, the Rogers Place in Edmonton on September 4th, and at the Scotiabank Saddledome on September 6th in Calgary.

Zac Brown Band

The Zac Brown Band, who in previous years played Budweiser Stage in Toronto, will be making one Canadian stop on their 2018 summer tour. You can catch the band on July 13th at the Rogers Centre in downtown Toronto.

Taylor Swift

Join hundreds of young screaming fans at the Reputation singer’s only Canadian tour stops, which are both in Toronto. Swift will be performing at the Rogers Centre on August 3rd – 4th.
