Widespread Panic has just announced dates for their 2011 summer tour. As part of the year long 25th Anniversary celebration, Widespread Panic will headline the Bonnaroo Music Festival on June 12. The band will also be returning to the Red Rocks Amphitheatre for a three-night stand, where they hold the attendance record with 35 sellouts. Panic will also be playing back-to-back nights in Los Angeles, Oakland and Las Vegas.
In February, Widespread Panic kicked off their 25th Anniversary year by returning to the site of their first-ever performance where they played two shows in their hometown of Athens, GA. Following the shows on February 15th, the State of Georgia’s House of Representatives and Senate passed resolutions in honor of the band’s 25 years of music, service, charity and longevity. Members of Widespread Panic stood on the floor of the House and were recognized before The General Assembly, followed by an acoustic performance for all in attendance. The band recently made their first appearance at the SXSW Music Conference in Austin, TX where they performed at the first-ever combined SXSW showcase and Austin City Limits television taping, which will air later this year (date TBA).
Stronger than ever after 25 years, Widespread Panic remain one of the top touring acts in the US. The band continues to play to packed arena, amphitheater and festival crowds, setting attendance records throughout the country. Widespread Panic’s fans travel from all over to be a part of their legendary live performances, where every show is it’s own special event.
As 2011 unfolds, Widespread Panic will be announcing more shows and events to celebrate their Silver Anniversary.
