ZZ Top announce first European tour in five years
ZZ Top have announced a European tour for 2024. The shows will be the band's first on the continent since 2019, and their first on the European side of the Atlantic with new bassist Elwood Francis, who replaced the late Dusty Hill in 2021.
The run of 13 shows kicks off at the Dalhalla Festival in Rattvik, Sweden, on June 28, and concludes a little over two weeks later at the Sion Festival in Switzerland. They've got just one UK show lined up, at Wembley Arena in London on July 11. Tickets will go on sale on December 15 at 10 AM.
"It’s been a while since we’ve been able to check in with our European fans," says Billy Gibbons. "So it goes without saying that we’re excited about coming back this summer. We’re looking forward to a good time and that goes for both those in the audience and on stage."
ZZ Top's European dates are scheduled between two legs of their Sharp Dressed Simple Man co-headlining tour of the US with Lynyrd Skynyrd, which kicks off in March and concludes in September. Full dates below.
