Guns N’ Roses’ rescheduled 2020 tour dates will begin next month. Originally postponed due to COVID-19, the hard rock legends will return to the stage in Hershey, Pennsylvania on July 31.
In addition to honoring their previously planned schedule, Guns N’ Roses announced that they will be performing in Portland, San Jose, Phoenix, Dallas, Atlantic City, St. Paul, Columbus, Baltimore, Indianapolis, Raleigh, and Las Vegas. The run will extend into October, concluding with a two-night stay in Hollywood, Florida.
The group’s lively arena shows will feature songs from their latest project dropping June 11, with single “Distance” already creating buzz. The self-titled release will be their first studio since their 2008 record Chinese Democracy.

Thus far, Mammoth WVH has showcased some six singles from the eagerly-awaited debut including “Distance,” “You’re To Blame,” Don’t Back Down,” “Think It Over,” “Feel,” and “Mammoth”.
