DAVID LEE ROTH has officially announced a massive return to the road with a newly revealed 30-date solo tour across North America. The former VAN HALEN frontman, now 71, is set to launch the extensive run in mid-April, marking one of his most ambitious touring schedules in recent years.
The tour will kick off on April 16 in Airway Heights, Washington, and will continue through multiple regions of the United States and Canada. Over the following months, DAVID LEE ROTH will perform in major cities and well-known venues, covering the West Coast, Southwest, South, East Coast, Midwest, and parts of Ontario.
Notably, the tour itinerary reflects a deliberate pacing, allowing the singer to revisit key markets while also reaching fans in less frequently toured locations.
Tour launch and early West Coast dates
The opening leg of the tour will see DAVID LEE ROTH begin in the Pacific Northwest before heading south into California and Arizona. These early shows will set the tone for the tour, featuring a mix of casino venues, theaters, and iconic music halls.
After opening in Washington, the tour moves through Oregon and California, including a high-profile stop at the House of Blues in Anaheim. From there, ROTH will continue into Arizona and New Mexico before wrapping up April with a series of Texas performances.
Southern and East Coast stretch in May
As the tour moves into May, DAVID LEE ROTH will shift focus toward the South and East Coast. Tennessee, Florida, Virginia, North Carolina, and Washington, DC are all included in this leg of the schedule.
These dates feature a blend of historic venues and modern performance spaces, including Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium and multiple theater stops along the East Coast. In addition, the tour will cross into Canada for a performance in Niagara Falls, Ontario, before returning to the northeastern United States.
This portion of the tour highlights ROTH’s continued appeal across generations, as demand remains strong in both legacy rock markets and newer live-music hubs.
June brings Midwest and Northeast performances
June will see DAVID LEE ROTH return to the Northeast and Midwest, performing in states such as New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.
Among the notable appearances is a performance at Milwaukee’s Summerfest, one of North America’s largest music festivals. The month also includes stops at outdoor amphitheaters and casino venues, offering fans a variety of live experiences.
After the June dates conclude, ROTH will later appear in August at the legendary Sturgis Buffalo Chip in South Dakota, extending the tour’s reach into the summer festival circuit.

Touring band and recent performances
