LEXINGTON, Ky. — After over 50 years of touring and consistently selling out arenas and stadiums worldwide, the Eagles announced their upcoming “The Long Goodbye” will be the band’s final tour.
The tour will include a stop in downtown Lexington on Tuesday, November 14 at Rupp Arena. The Eagles’ long-time contemporaries and fellow Hall of Famers, Steely Dan, will join these historic shows and commemorate their 50+ year career.
Presale tickets and VIP packages will be available starting Wednesday, July 12, for all announced shows. The general on-sale will start Friday, July 14 at 10:00 AM local time at ticketmaster.com. During “The Long Goodbye,” the Eagles – Don Henley, Joe Walsh, Timothy B. Schmit, Vince Gill and Deacon Frey – will perform as many shows in each market as their audience demands. The tour is expected to continue into 2025.
Over the band’s 50 years of touring, the Eagles have performed over 1,000 concerts worldwide, accounting for more than 15 million tickets. Eagles’ tours have consistently ranked in the Top 10 of both concert industry publications, Billboard and Pollstar. In the Fall of 1971, the Eagles formed, pioneered, and personified a uniquely American musical style blending country, folk, R&B, rock, and pop sensibilities, and would become one of the most creatively and commercially successful bands of all time. In today’s faddish, fractured rock landscape, the Eagles retain an appeal that transcends generation and genre, cementing the band’s role as an enduring musical icon.
The Eagles have sold more than 150 million albums worldwide, scored six #1 albums, and topped the singles charts five times. They earned six GRAMMY Awards, were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1998, in their first year of eligibility, and received the Kennedy Center Honors in 2016.
The band’s Greatest Hits 1971-1977 is the best-selling album in history, with the RIAA certifying the collection at 38 times Platinum. Hotel California is the third best-selling U.S. album, certified 26-times Platinum. After its release in 1976, it topped the charts and earned two GRAMMY Awards for “New Kid In Town” and “Hotel California.”
