The Eagles aren’t just coming to Chicago one of these nights — they’re now stopping in the United Center for two nights as part of their “The Long Goodbye” farewell tour, a press release said.
The second Chicago date is among a slew of additional cities and dates the legendary rock band vowed to add, “depending on demand.”
“We know how fortunate we are, and we are truly grateful,” a statement from the band said, as part of their initial tour announcement. “Our long run has lasted far longer than any of us ever dreamed. But, everything has its time, and the time has come for us to close the circle. The official farewell tour is currently in the planning stages. We want to give all our fans a chance to see us on this final round. So, scheduling information will be released as dates are set.”
The Eagles are currently scheduled to stop at the United Center in Chicago on March 8 and 9. Additional dates were also added to shows in Phoenix, Austin and Toronto, the release said, with hotel and show ticket packages available for the Chicago and Phoenix shows.
According to Live Nation, the tour, with special guest Steely Dan, is expected to continue into 2025, with all original Eagles band members — Don Henley, Joe Walsh, Timothy B. Schmitt, with Vince Gill and Deacon Frey — performing “as many shows in each market as their audience demands.”
According to Live Nation, tickets for the newly-added Chicago shows are currently on sale. General public onsale for the additional dates in Phoenix, Austin and Toronto will go on sale beginning at 10 a.m. Nov. 10.
