(May 10, 2021) – Three-time consecutive GRAMMY Award-winning duo Dan + Shay are gearing up to get back on the road with their headline Dan + Shay The (Arena) Tour kicking off with new 2021 dates beginning September 9 in Greenville, SC. The trek will continue for 30+ dates before concluding on December 7 in Boston, MA and includes a stop at the famed Madison Square Garden in New York, NY on September 16.

 

Additionally, two new shows were announced today – October 15 in Los Angeles, CA at STAPLES Center and October 16 in San Diego, CA at Pechanga Arena.

Alternative pop rockers The Band CAMINO and 3x GRAMMY nominee and multi-platinum-selling singer-songwriter Ingrid Andress will join The (Arena) Tour as special guests for all dates.

 

The massive tour, presented by AEG Presents, marked a career milestone for the duo as their first ever headlining arena trek when it officially kicked off in March 2020 with three consecutive sold-out shows – two back-to-back in Nashville, TN and another in Columbus, OH. More than 40,000 tickets were sold across the three nights and as The Tennessean noted at the time, “Even with their three monster hits: ‘Tequila,’ ‘10,000 Hours’ and ‘Speechless,’ it seemed like nearly every song was greeted like a single by the packed house.”

 

The tour was rescheduled due to COVID-19; all previously purchased tickets will be honored for new, rescheduled dates as outlined below.

 

Dan + Shay have continued their meteoric rise to superstar status throughout 2020 and 2021. In March, they won their third consecutive GRAMMY Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance, making them the first artist to do so since the category’s inception. They also recently pulled off a three-peat at the 56^th annual ACM Awards in April, taking home their third straight Duo of the Year title and performing their new hit single “Glad You Exist” from Nashville’s esteemed Bluebird Café. They are currently nominated for an iHeart Radio Music Award in the all-genre Best Duo/Group of the Year category and are Billboard Music Awards finalists for Top Duo/Group and Top Country Duo/Group. The duo has performed on countless television stages and recently teamed up with Blake Shelton on the current milestone 20th season of NBC’s The Voice, where they served as Shelton’s Battle Advisors.

 

Fans can expect no shortage of hits each night from Dan + Shay’s undeniable catalog, including “10,000 Hours” with superstar Justin Bieber (top-streamed country track on Spotify’s Hot Country in 2020 and the highest first week streaming in country music history), and “Tequila” (6x Platinum with 1+ billion global streams) and “Speechless” (5x Platinum with 1+ billion global streams).

 

In the eight years since they formed, Dan + Shay have surpassed seven billion global career streams (with over four billion impressions in 2020 alone), accumulated 37 total RIAA certifications and achieved eight No. 1 singles at country radio. “Glad You Exist” has amassed 70+ million global streams to date and follows their recent No.1, RIAA Platinum-certified smash “I Should Probably Go To Bed,” which has surpassed 1.4 million U.S. track equivalents and 250+ million global streams. The duo shattered records with their single “10,000 Hours,” which has garnered over 1.5 billion global streams to date, was the fastest country song to reach over one million U.S. track equivalents in 2019 and spent 21 weeks at No.1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart (5^th longest run in chart history). They have earned multiple GRAMMY, CMA, ACM, American Music, and Billboard Music Award wins and nominations. Dan + Shay The (Arena) Tour follows their sold-out Dan + Shay The Tour in 2019.
