The rescheduled dates for GUNS N' ROSES' North American stadium tour have been announced. The nearly two-month-long trek, which was scheduled to launch on July 4 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and run through August 26 on Missoula, Montana, was postponed in May due to the coronavirus pandemic which is sweeping the globe. The new tour, which will now take place in July 2021, will only include 13 dates. According to the band, "routing and venue availability issues" have forced the cancelation of six of the shows: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; San Francisco, California; Atlanta, Georgia; Tampa, Florida; Arlington, Texas; and Indianapolis, Indiana. The 2021 concerts kick off July 10 with an appearance at Milwaukee's Summerfest and wrap up on August 19 at the Banc of California Stadium in Los Angeles. GUNS N' ROSES said in a statement: "Hey Gunners, our 2020 North American tour dates are being rescheduled to Summer 2021. The trek begins July 10th, 2021 in Milwaukee, WI at Summerfest and will make stops throughout the US and Canada all Summer, before wrapping in Los Angeles, CA on August 19, 2021. Among these stops, many of our existing 2020 shows will move to a new date at the same venue, while unfortunately a select few will need to be canceled due to routing and venue availability issues that developed during the postponement process. We thank everyone for their patience during this difficult time and look forward to performing for you all next year."
