Foo Fighters have rescheduled their concert in Minneapolis, Minnesota after the University of Minnesota’s football stadium “refused” the band’s request for vaccine requirements last week. The Foos have taken the show to the U.S. Bank Stadium, and have scheduled the concert for August 3, 2022. Proof of vaccine or negative test results will be required at the show. General-admission floor tickets go on sale Friday, December 10 at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster.com, with pre-sale options beginning today (7th). The group has also added a new tour date on May 18th, 2022 in Columbia, MD.

You may recall, the Foo Fighters canceled their concert at Minneapolis’s Huntington Bank Stadium, claiming that the venue “refused” to agree to the band’s COVID-19 safety measures.

“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,” the band tweeted. “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 (The University of Minnesota’s football stadium) requires face masks at indoor settings, there is no mask mandate or requirement of proof of vaccine or negative test results when outdoors. The Foos begin their “Live In North America 2022” on May 14, 2022 in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania.
