The legendary band has been captivating crowds on their international takeover, closing in on an astounding $300 million in ticket sales. Outstanding reviews from around the world crashed in from the start with Rolling Stone dubbing the Not In This Lifetime Tour “the triumphant return of one of the most important bands to cross rock music history.” LA WEEKLY notes it’s “everything fans could hope for” while The Washington Times says the show delivers a set of “inspired surprises.” Following the group’s 1985 formation, Guns N’ Roses injected unbridled, unrivalled, and unstoppable attitude into the burgeoning Los Angeles rock scene. The spirit went on to captivate the entire world with the release of their 1987 debut Appetite for Destruction –the best-selling U.S. debut ever, moving 30 million copies globally. In 1991, the seven-time platinum Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II occupied the top two spots of the Billboard Top 200 upon release. Over the course of the past decade, Guns N’ Roses have performed sold out shows and headlined festivals worldwide following the critically acclaimed release of 2008’s RIAA platinum-certified Chinese Democracy. Six studio albums later, Guns N’ Roses are one of the most important and influential acts in music history and continue to set the benchmark for live performances connecting with millions of fans across the globe. Guns N’ Roses’ are Axl Rose (vocals, piano), Duff McKagan (bass), Slash (lead guitar), Dizzy Reed (keyboard), Richard Fortus (rhythm guitar), Frank Ferrer (drums), and Melissa Reese (keyboard). # # # www.gunsnroses.com #GnFnR GUNS N’ ROSES – NOT IN THIS LIFETIME TOUR 2017 Europe Saturday, May 27, 2017 Dublin, Ireland Slane Castle Tuesday, May 30, 2017 Bilbao, Spain San Mames Stadium Friday, June 2, 2017 Lisbon, Portugal Passeio Martimo De Alges Sunday, June 4, 2017 Madrid, Spain Vincente Calderon Stadium Wednesday, June 7, 2017 Zurich, Switzerland Letzigrund Saturday, June 10, 2017 Imola, Italy Greenfield Tuesday, June 13, 2017 Munich, Germany Olympiastadion Friday, June 16, 2017 London, United Kingdom London Stadium Tuesday, June 20, 2017 Gdansk, Poland Stadion Energy Gdansk Thursday, June 22, 2017 Hannover, Germany Messe Saturday, June 24, 2017 Werchter, Belgium Classic Tuesday, June 27, 2017 Copenhagen, Denmark Telia Parken Thursday, June 29, 2017 Stockholm, Sweden Friends Arena Saturday, July 1, 2017 Hämeenlinna, Finland Kantolan Tapahtumapuisto Tuesday, July 4, 2017 Prague, Czech Republic Letnany Airport Friday, July 7, 2017 Paris, France Stade de France Monday, July 10, 2017 Vienna, Austria Ernst Happel Stadion Wednesday, July 12, 2017 Nijmegen, Holland Goffert Park Saturday, July 15, 2017 Tel Aviv, Israel Hayarkon Park North AmerIca Thursday, july 27, 2017 +St. Louis, MO The Dome At America’s Center Sunday, july 30, 2017 +Minneapolis, MN U.S. Bank Stadium Wednesday, August 2, 2017 **Denver, CO Sports Authority Field at Mile High Saturday, August 5, 2017 **Little Rock, AK War MemorIal StadIum Tuesday, August 8, 2017 **Miami, FL Miami Marlins Stadium Friday, August 11, 2017 ++Winston-Salem, NC BB&T Field at Wake Forest University Sunday, August 13, 2017 ++Hershey, PA Hersheypark Stadium Wednesday, August 16, 2017 Buffalo, NY New Era Field Saturday, August 19, 2017 ^Montreal, QC Parc Jean Drapeau Monday, August 21, 2017 ^Ottawa, ON TD Place Stadium Thursday, August 24, 2017 ^Winnipeg, MB Investors Group Field Sunday, August 27, 2017 Regina, SK New Mosaic Stadium at Evraz Place Wednesday, August 30, 2017 ^Edmonton, AB Commonwealth Stadium Friday, September 1, 2017 *Vancouver, BC BC Place Stadium Sunday, September 3, 2017 *George, WA The Gorge Wednesday, September 6, 2017 ***El Paso, TX Sun Bowl Stadium Friday, September 8, 2017 ***San Antonio, TX Alamodome Sunday, October 8, 2017 PhIladelphIa, PA Wells Fargo Center Wednesday, October 11, 2017 New York, NY MadIson Square Garden Sunday, October 15, 2017 New York, NY MadIson Square Garden Sunday, October 22, 2017 Boston, MA TD Garden Thursday, October 26, 2017 Cleveland, OH QuIcken Loans Arena Sunday, October 29, 2017 Toronto, ON Air Canada Centre Thursday, November 2, 2017 DetroIt, MI Little Caesers Arena Monday, November 6, 2017 ChIcago, IL UnIted Center FrIday, November 10, 2017 Houston, TX Toyota Center Tuesday, November 14, 2017 Tulsa, OK BOK Center FrIday, November 17, 2017 Las Vegas, NV T-MobIle Arena Tuesday, November 21, 2017 Oakland, CA Oracle Arena FrIday, November 24, 2017 Los Angeles, CA Staples Center Saturday, November 25, 2017 Los Angeles, CA The Forum ***with ZZ Top +with Deftones **with Sturgill Simpson *with Royal Blood ++with LĪVE ^with Our Lady Peace About Live NatIon EntertaInment Live Nation Entertainment (NYSE: LYV) is the world's leading live entertainment company comprised of global market leaders: Ticketmaster, Live Nation Concerts, Live Nation Advertising & Sponsorship and Artist Nation Management.
