The Eagles Reveal New 'Hotel California' Tour Dates for 2021

The Eagles have added new dates to their rescheduled Hotel California Tour for 2021. The iconic country-rock group have added six new dates to the dates they'd already announced, beginning on Aug. 22 and 24 with a two-night stand at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

The newly announced dates also include two nights at TD Garden in Boston, as well as two nights at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C.

Surviving Eagles members Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit will join country icon Vince Gill and Glenn Frey's son, Deacon Frey, for the upcoming concerts. Gill and Frey joined the band after Glenn Frey's death in 2016, splitting his duties across various classic songs.

The Eagles originally announced the Hotel California Tour for 2020, after playing a sold-out Las Vegas residency devoted to their most successful album in 2019. They played the initial shows through the end of February in 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic forced them to reschedule the bulk of the dates.

The upcoming shows will feature the Eagles performing their 1976 Hotel California album in its entirety, backed by an orchestra and a 22-person choir. A second set will feature the group performing a selection of greatest hits from across their career.

Tickets for the newly announced shows will go on sale beginning Friday, June 18, at 10AM local time. American Express Card Members will have access to a special pre-sale beginning Monday, June 14, at 10AM local time and running through Thursday, June 17, at 10PM local time. Tickets purchased for concerts in 2020 will be honored at the rescheduled shows. Fans who are unable to attend the new dates can request a refund via LiveNation or the original point of purchase.

5 Hottest Country Tours of Summer 2021

There’s a lot to consider when making a list of the hottest tours of summer 2021, including star power, opening acts, venues and set lists. Add to that concerns and cautions as the country begins to emerge from a pandemic and that no one has seen live music in 14 months. It’s quite likely you’re craving live music like a drug that’s just out of reach ... or you’re scared shirtless to surround yourself with 10,000 fans indoors.

All the emotions about reengaging with the live country music community are valid. While at first it seemed September would be start-up month, several tours on this Hot List begin in July and August at outdoor venues across America. The No. 3 tour and No. 1 tour on our list are mostly indoors, but both are banking on increased safety that comes from a majority of the population having the COVID-19 vaccine.

Once those lights go down, all of these worries will be carried away by the buzz in the air (and maybe, from your cup). Find five total professionals on this list of Hot Summer Tours, each bringing a total stage show, plus several in-demand opening acts with a proven track record of live entertainment at the highest level. There’s no fat on any of these country tours — if you stick to the tailgate through an opener’s set, you’ll truly be missing something special.

As always, let us know who you can’t wait to see on tour in 2021 via Twitter or email.
