There was a gap between dates on his 2024 South American tour and now we know why. Paul McCartney has announced two concerts in Brazil as part of the 2024 edition of his “Got Back” tour, bringing his total for the year to 19. The legendary performer turned 82 on June 18. The pair of stadium shows in Brazil, announced on June 24, following the news four days earlier of three concerts in Mexico that include a headlining performance at the Corona Capital Festival. They’re on top of the announcement earlier in the month of concerts in South America in October as well as performances in Paris, Madrid, Manchester and London in December. [His one public performance so far this year was at the Jimmy Buffett tribute concert held at the Hollywood Bowl on April 11.] The 2023 edition of the “Got Back” tour took place in Australia, Mexico and Brazil, spanning from October to December. Sale dates for the 2024 shows have varied for each city. [The original June 10 announcement of the first South American shows indicated that more news was “coming soon.”] Artist pre-sales for the new shows in Brazil begin June 25 at 10 a.m. local time; general on-sale starts on June 26 here. [Tickets for his Nov. 17 headlining date at the Corona Capital Festival will be available here.] Tickets for the dates in Europe and the U.K. are available here.

McCartney had first teased a 2024 tour with a post on his Instagram account that showed a roadie moving an equipment case marked “MPL 24.”

The legend’s setlist is typically 36 songs, drawing from his wealth of material with The Beatles, Wings and his solo career. He closed his 2023 “Got Back” tour at five major cities in Brazil, ending with a massive show at Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.
