Foo Fighters will embark on a North American tour that will start next spring and run through the summer. May, July and August of 2022 will see the Foos visiting arenas and stadiums across North America. Tickets will be made public Friday, December 3 at 10 a.m. local time. Check out all dates below.
Just hours after announcing this tour, Foo Fighters have canceled the August 3, 2022 show in Minneapolis, Minnesota claiming that the venue refused to adhere to the band’s COVID-19 safety measures.
Foo Fighters shared the following,
“Due to Huntington Bank Stadium’s refusal to agree to the band’s Covid safety measures, FOO FIGHTERS are unable to perform at that venue. We apologize for any inconvenience and are working on finding a suitable replacement — one that will prioritize the health and safety of everyone working and attending the show.”
Although Huntington Bank Stadium requires face masks at indoor settings, there is no mask mandate or requirement of proof of vaccine or negative test results when outdoors.,”
University of Minnesota Public relations director, Jake Ricker had this to say,
“The university declined to change its existing protocols for large events, which have been effective. We continue to encourage everyone to get vaccinated, wear a mask when in large crowds, and take appropriate steps to protect public and personal health.”
The University of Minnesota also released the following statement,
“The University of Minnesota has prioritized the health and wellness of our community and beyond since the beginning of the pandemic and to state otherwise is misleading. In fact, University medical and public health experts, as well as the University’s own research, have consistently informed local, state, national and even worldwide approaches to COVID-19 response. Our on-campus policies related to vaccines, mask wearing, personal hygiene and other precautions are aligned with state and federal guidance. As a result, our University community is highly vaccinated (exceeding 95 percent) and has consistently experienced low infection rates compared to our campus’ surrounding communities. Huntington Bank Stadium has successfully hosted Gopher Football since August while fully complying with state and federal COVID guidance. All who attend events at our public institution, whether football fans, concert goers, or others, are treated equally and encouraged to take steps to protect themselves and others.”
