How to get Paul McCartney tickets: Denver, Las Vegas, Chicago, and more

With three years having passed since the start of Paul McCartney's Got Back Tour, and a similar amount of time since he last did a North American leg, the legend is back on this side of the pond and ready to hit the stage for his eager audience. The Got Back Tour kicks off in September with a show in Palm Desert, California, and is set to run for 19 performances. With his long-running tour not having had North American shows in some time, it's no surprise that tickets are nearing sold-out status already. Luckily, there are still a few avenues available if you're looking for how to buy tickets to Paul McCartney's 2025 Got Back Tour stops.
The Got Back Tour, which originally began in 2022, saw Paul McCartney join with the likes of Rusty Anderson on guitar, Brian Ray on guitar and bass, Paul "Wix" Wickens on keyboards, and Abe Laboriel Jr. on drums, along with the brass trio Hot City Horns. The original tour was set to wrap up after 14 stops; however, due to the great success it saw, McCartney announced he would extend it. These extensions continued into both 2023 and 2024, where the star took to the stage across Australia, Europe, and South America. 2025 marks his much-anticipated return to North America, and presently, the tour is set to finish up in November.

Who is opening for Paul McCartney's tour?
Currently, there is no information released on whether Paul McCartney will have an opening act for the 2025 North American leg of his Got Back Tour. His previous legs did not have openers, and as McCartney typically does not have opening acts for his solo performances, it is unlikely that there will be one for the upcoming tour leg. When the show begins, it will be Paul McCartney taking the stage.
Will there be international tour dates?
Paul McCartney's 2025 Got Back Tour does not have any international dates scheduled. The Got Back Tour first began in 2022 and previously made tour stops across Europe, Australia, and South America.

I saw Oasis on their reunion tour. Drinks were expensive, merch was extortionate — but the experience was priceless.

I set myself up for disappointment on Friday. Sitting in a packed-out tube carriage heading to London's Wembley Stadium, I had high expectations for the night ahead. The sun was out, the drinks had been flowing, and more importantly, Oasis was back. But as a lifelong sports fan who's experienced one too many heartbreaks, I've learned to be a little suspicious when things seem "too good." I need not have worried, however. It had been 16 years since brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher infamously split following a spat ahead of a scheduled set in Paris — and the occasion was lost on no one. The band was on ferociously good form right from the raucous openers "Hello" and "Acquiesce" through to the epic climax of "Champagne Supernova." There was no time for " kiss cams" here. The 90,000-strong crowd locked onto every word as the group rolled off many of its most iconic numbers and paid tribute to the late, great Ozzy Osbourne. A year ago, however, some of the initial buzz over Oasis' unexpected comeback announcement was dampened slightly by controversy over the alleged use of surge ticket pricing, which companies selling products online sometimes use to increase prices as market demand rises. Many Oasis fans had to queue for hours to secure tickets through Ticketmaster and saw the cost of some tickets shoot from £135, or about $181, to more than £350, which is around $470. I got off lightly, paying £150. Ticketmaster has denied using a "dynamic pricing" model. Andrew Parsons, managing director at Ticketmaster UK, told MPs earlier this year that the platform does not change prices in "any automated or algorithmic way," adding that they are set in advance with "event organisers and their teams." Other fans faced the prospect of skyrocketing prices on secondary sites. One London-based fan who missed out on tickets on Ticketmaster told Business Insider at the time that he'd seen tickets listed for as much as £6,347 on one secondary site. Friday night's concert was also anything but cheap. A pint of beer broke the dreaded £8 barrier. T-shirts emblazoned with the brothers' faces or the band's logo were going for £40, while anything from the Adidas Originals x Oasis collection cost considerably more — I spied one "football shirt" selling for £85. Oasis is set to play seven shows at Wembley this year. The Live '25 Tour will also see the group perform at venues across North America, including Chicago's Soldier Field, the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, and the Rogers Stadium in Toronto. For those lucky enough to have gotten tickets to Friday's show, any lingering bitterness over pricing seemed to have evaporated completely by the time the band stepped off stage. It wasn't just the chance of seeing two of rock and roll's most charismatic characters back together — it was a few hours of unfiltered joy and camaraderie that one should not take for granted these days. If you asked me now how much I'd have paid to go to the concert, I'd struggle to put a number on it. It's an experience that feels impossible to quantify but that will certainly live forever.

Spinal Tap has a lot of famous friends, slightly fewer jokes in sequel trailer

We get a little nervous, honestly, when the trailer for a new sequel/revival/general nostalgia-based film or television project features a lot of material from the old works it's building off of—something in ready abundance in the first trailer, released today, for Spinal Tap II: The End Continues. Yes, trailer, we do in fact remember the bit from 1984's This Is Spinal Tap where the dials go to 11; what have you got for us today? A whole lot of famous friends, is the immediate answer, as Spinal Tap II's trailer rolls out Paul McCartney, Elton John, and Questlove to remind us that musicians like This Is Spinal Tap, too. (McCartney gets to play the 'pretending to think Tap are geniuses' game, talking to Rob Reiner's Marty Di Bergi about the poetry of 'Big Bottom,' while Questlove declines the chance to be the drummer for the band's reunion show because 'I don't want to die.') Beyond these eye-catching elements, though, the trailer does give fans some of what will actually determine how well the movie works: Time spent with David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tufnel, and Derek Smalls (or, as we know them in the real world, Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, and Harry Shearer), who do, in fact seem to still have a strong grasp on rock's dumbest semi-success story. Some of the more timely gags in the trailer are hit-or-miss—jokes about crypto and Stormy Daniels are going to age like beef on a sunny day—but the affable dopiness that all three comedy legends bring to their characters is still in ready evidence. (They've also brought in a couple of British comedy ringers to help round out the cast/jokes, including Chris Addison and Kerry Godliman.) (Bosh!) We might feel a little skeptical, but moments like Tufnel rocking out, full electric, with his quiet acoustic pub band, or McKean's blithe idiocy as St. Hubbins, gives us a bit of hope that the film can capture some of the old magic. Spinal Tap II is directed by Reiner, and written by him alongside Guest, McKean, and Shearer. The film hits theaters on September 12. More from A.V.

How did 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' compare to 'Superman' at the box office?

Who would win in a box-office smackdown between Superman and the Fantastic Four? Superhero movie fans just got the answer − although it's so close that it's practically a draw. Marvel's "The Fantastic Four: First Steps," starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach, opened to an impressive $118 million at the domestic box office this weekend, according to estimates released by Comscore on Sunday, July 27. The anticipated numbers put the film's debut just slightly below that of DC's "Superman," with David Corenswet as the Man of Steel, which opened to $125 million at the North American box office earlier this month. Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox Released just two weeks apart, "Fantastic Four" and "Superman" have a lot in common, as both are new interpretations of iconic superhero characters whose recent cinematic renditions were poorly received. The last Fantastic Four movie was the critically reviled 2015 bomb "Fantastic Four," which opened to just $25 million domestically. Superman, meanwhile, was coming off a series of movies from director Zack Snyder, whose darker vision for the character was divisive. The two movies were also similarly crucial for the future of their respective franchises. The stars of "Fantastic Four: First Steps" will return in "Avengers: Doomsday" (expected Dec. 18, 2026), a major event film for Marvel, meaning the group's debut movie performing poorly would have spelled trouble for Disney. The same could be said for DC, given that "Superman" is the first film in a relaunched cinematic universe that has numerous more entries on the way, including next summer's "Supergirl" (June 26, 2026), starring Milly Alcock. In the end, both Marvel and DC can breathe a sigh of relief. "Fantastic Four" and "Superman" not only each opened well at the box office, but also earned positive reviews from critics and the exact same A- grade from audiences polled by CinemaScore, a research firm that surveys moviegoers at theaters. Also breathing a sigh of relief? Movie theaters, which had a strong July between the pair of superhero blockbusters and "Jurassic World Rebirth" with its solid $148 million five-day holiday debut at the start of the month. But not even superheroes and dinosaurs were enough to steal the seasonal box-office crown from "Lilo & Stitch." After snagging a huge $146 million three-day debut in May, the Disney live-action remake still holds the title of biggest opening weekend of the summer, and it's the only Hollywood movie to pass $1 billion worldwide so far this year. "First Steps" is the first "Fantastic Four" film released as part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, after the characters were previously owned by 20th Century Fox. It's also Marvel's third movie of 2025, after "Captain America: Brave New World" and "Thunderbolts*," but first to open to more than $100 million domestically over three days.
