New McCartney Tour Announced: Freshen Up Tour

Paul will return to the road with a total new tour: The Freshen Up Tour, which kicks off in Canada in September. Four dates were announced this morning on McCartney’s website, where fans also can register for the tickets presale. The presale starts on Tuesday, July 10 at 10 AM local time; registration will close on next Sunday, 8th July. 

According to Paul’s website, the 'Freshen Up Tour' will begin September 17th at the Videotron Centre in Québec, Paul’s first show in the Canadian capital since his 2013 stop at the Plains of Abraham on the 'Out There' tour. From there, Paul will visit Montreal for the first time since the 'On The Run' tour in 2011 to play the Bell Centre on September 20th, before returning to Winnipeg September 28th to play Bell MTS Place, his first performance in the capital of Manitoba since 2013. 'Freshen Up's' Canadian itinerary will conclude with a visit to a final Canadian capital city, Edmonton, Alberta, for a September 30th show at Rogers Place—Paul’s first appearance in the city since 2012.

We’ve always had such a fantastic time playing shows in Canada. We can’t wait to return in September for what should be another special run of shows.  We are looking forward to freshening up our show and playing some of our songs from the new album alongside those songs we know you like to hear.  Get ready to rock Canada!”

The name of the tour sounds promising: will there be a big change in the setlist? The last couple of years there was some dissatisfaction among fans because the setlists of the several tours were very much alike. A new tour with the name Freshen Up creates at least some expectations.
