Hillary, Bill Clinton tour hits Toronto in November
NEW YORK— Now that Beyoncé and Jay-Z are off the road, another power couple is taking their place: Hillary and Bill Clinton. The Clintons announced Monday they will visit four cities in North America in 2018, including a stop in Toronto at Scotiabank Arena on Nov. 27.
They will also visit nine cities in 2019 across North America in a series of conversations dubbed “An Evening with President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.”
It is being produced by tour promoter Live Nation, the company behind Michelle Obama’s massive tour to promote her new book as well as tours for Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars and other music heavyweights.
The Clintons will hold joint conversations at the shows and share “stories and inspiring anecdotes that shaped their historic careers in public service, while also discussing issues of the day and looking toward the future,” Live Nation said.
Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. The Clintons road show will kick off Nov. 18 in Las Vegas
They will visit Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena on Nov. 27, Montreal’s Bell Centre on Nov. 28 and Smart Financial Center in Sugar Land, Texas, on Dec. 4.
“Attendees will have the opportunity to hear one-of-akind conversations with the two leaders as they tell their stories from some of the most impactful moments in modern history.
“From the American presidency to the halls of the Senate and State Department, to one of the United States’ most controversial and unpredictable presidential elections, they provide a unique perspective on the past, and remarkable insight into where we go from here,” Live Nation said in a statement.
The Clintons’ first show next year will be April 11 at the nearly 3,000-seat Beacon Theatre in New York, where the 2016 Tony Awards were held.
