Music fans, mark your calendar. Paul McCartney is set to play two shows at State Farm Arena in November.
Following his historic three-night stand at New York City’s Bowery Ballroom earlier this year — hailed by BILLBOARD as “a religious experience” and moving NPR to rave “Paul McCartney has so much swag it’s ridiculous” — Paul McCartney and his acclaimed Got Back Tour will make their wildly anticipated return to North America this fall.
Got Back’s 2025 run of 19 newly announced dates marks Paul’s first extensive series of shows across the US and Canada since 2022. The tour kicks off September 29 with Paul’s Greater Palm Springs area live debut at Acrisure Arena and runs through to a November 24-25 finale at the United Center in Chicago. McCartney’s shows in Atlanta are scheduled for Nov. 2 and 3.
