Breaking News: The Who Announces Final Tour – Dates and Cities Revealed

Legendary rock band The Who has just announced what they’re calling their final tour, marking the end of an era that began in 1964. Frontman Roger Daltrey and guitarist Pete Townshend are set to hit the road one last time, bringing decades of music history to fans across the globe. The announcement came early Monday morning through the band’s official website and social media channels.

The tour, titled “The Who Hits Back – The Final Chapter,” kicks off in London on September 5, 2025, and will span 20 cities across Europe and North America. The final show is scheduled for November 15, 2025, in New York City at Madison Square Garden—one of the band’s most iconic venues. This tour will include full arena performances, with a mix of acoustic and electric sets, giving fans the full Who experience.

According to Townshend, this tour won’t rely heavily on orchestral arrangements like in recent years. “We’re going back to basics—raw, loud, and real,” he said in an interview with Classic Rock Magazine. Daltrey echoed that sentiment, stating, “We want to say goodbye in our own voice. This is about the music, the fans, and the connection we’ve had for over 60 years.”

Tickets for the tour go on sale Friday, April 19, with presale access available to fan club members beginning April 17. Ticket prices will range from $75 to $350, depending on the venue and seating options. VIP packages, including meet-and-greet opportunities and limited-edition merchandise, will also be available for select shows.

Here are some of the confirmed dates and cities:

Sept 5 – London, UK – The O2 Arena

Sept 10 – Berlin, Germany – Mercedes-Benz Arena

Sept 20 – Chicago, IL – United Center

Oct 1 – Los Angeles, CA – Crypto.com Arena

Oct 15 – Toronto, Canada – Scotiabank Arena

Nov 15 – New York, NY – Madison Square Garden

This tour marks a historic moment not just for The Who, but for rock history as a whole. With iconic hits like Baba O’Riley, My Generation, and Won’t Get Fooled Again, their influence spans generations. For many fans, this final tour is the last chance to witness a band that helped shape modern rock and defined the live concert experience.

Daltrey, now 81, and Townshend, 80, insist this isn’t a gimmick or a tease for more dates. “This is truly it,” said Daltrey. “No more reunions. No more comebacks. Just one last celebration of everything The Who ever stood for.” Fans are urged to act fast—tickets are expected to sell out in minutes.

Whether you’re a lifelong fan or a newcomer to their music, The Who’s final tour promises to be a monumental farewell—loud, emotional, and unforgettable. Stay tuned for full ticket details and potential additional dates in Asia and South America.
