John Fogerty has extended his Celebration Tour with a new round of summer dates. The former Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman will be setting out on a run of shows that will take his traveling ensemble across the United States and to European festival stages from June 2 to Sept. 11, accompanied by George Thorogood & the Destroyers and Hearty Har.
This announcement comes a year after Fogerty acquired the rights to his catalog of Creedence songs in Jan. 2023; soon after, Fogerty launched his Celebration Tour on April 27. Fogerty will be joined this summer by blues rocker and longtime friend George Thorogood and his band the Destroyers, who set out on a 50 Years of Rock Tour in 2023. In addition, Hearty Har, founded by Fogerty’s sons Shane and Tyler, will open every show with a set of their own before supporting their father’s headlining performance as the backing band.
Fogerty will kick off this year’s rendition of the Celebration Tour with a June 2 performance at CCNB Amphitheatre at Heritage Park in Simpsonville, S.C. Next, Fogerty and his crew will weave their way north, stopping in Charleston, S.C., Raleigh, N.C., Camden, N.J. and Scranton, Pa. for a series of dates ending on June 8. The ensemble will then make a stop at Bristow, Va.’s Jiffy Lube Live on June 9 before heading to the Empire State for a three-night run that will close out on June 14 at the Bethel Wood Center for the Arts in Bethel, N.Y. After playing the PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, N.J. on June 15, the bands will hike to New England for three shows, ending on June 20 at the outdoor Tanglewood Music Center in Lenox, Mass.
Next, the Celebration Tour will head to Europe for a weeklong festival run. Fogerty and friends will hit the Netherlands’ Bospop Festival on July 12, Belgium’s Rock Zottegem 2024 on July 13, Italy’s Lucca Summer Festival on July 16 and finally France’s Guitar en Scène on July 18. Fogerty will conclude the 2024 run of his Celebration Tour with two appearances without Thorogood, first at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colo. on Aug. 26, then with a summer sendoff on Sept. 11 at the Utah State Fair in Salt Lake City.
