Eric Church Announces 2021 The Gather Again Tour
He's playing in the round so as many fans can be there as possible.
Reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year Eric Church has announced plans to head back out on tour this fall. Dubbed The Gather Again Tour, Church will hit 55 cities across the United States and Canada beginning in September and wrap up the run with a grand finale show in New York City’s Madison Square Garden next year. His tour will be an “in the round” set-up, with the stage in the middle of the venue to accommodate as many fans as possible.
The North Carolina native opened up about his desire to tour again in a recent interview with Billboard, where he encouraged fans to get the COVID-19 vaccine so that they might reunite at a show one day.
“It became very clear to me that the only way to really get back to normal is through vaccinations. You’ve got to get needles in arms,” he shared with Billboard. On the cover image, Church is seen receiving his second dose of the vaccine after acknowledging that he met with epidemiologists and industry experts about the possibility of returning to touring.
“I just want to play shows,” he continued. “Politics’ job is to divide – that’s how you win elections. Those things that unite us are music and sports. The times when, whether you’re a Democrat or Republican or whatever, you throw your arm around the person next to you. We need that. I need that.”
Church has big plans for the year on top of his massive tour. He’ll soon release a three-album record called Heart & Soul, with Heart releasing April 16, Soul releasing April 23 and & being shared with Church Club members exclusively on April 20. He is also slated to perform on the 2021 ACM Awards April 18, where he is currently nominated for Entertainer of the Year.
Tickets for the U.S. tour dates go on sale to the general public Friday, May 7 at 10 a.m. local time at EricChurch.com. Church Choir members may access tickets early via pre-sale on Tuesday, May 4 at 10 a.m. local time. Ticket information for the Canadian dates will be available soon.
