Weezer’s 30th Anniversary Bash: The Blue Album Live

Weezer is hitting the road to celebrate 30 years since their iconic self-titled debut, affectionately known as The Blue Album. This landmark tour, dubbed “The Voyage to the Blue Planet,” kicks off in September and promises a month of electrifying performances across North America. Fans are in for a treat as Weezer plans to play The Blue Album in its entirety, offering a full dive into the record that shaped a generation. Unfortunately, Salt Lake City is not currently on the schedule. See full tour dates below.

 

Stellar Line-Up

Adding to the excitement, Weezer won’t be alone. They’ve enlisted the support of alt-rock titans Dinosaur Jr. and psychedelic rockers the Flaming Lips, setting the stage for a series of unforgettable shows. But before embarking on this anniversary journey, Weezer has a few appetizers lined up. They’ll share the stage with Dogstar at Los Angeles’ Lodge Room on March 15 and have a mix of festival appearances and gigs with the Smashing Pumpkins and Teen Mortgage in Europe and the UK.
