U2 Announce 2023 Tour Dates
Before starting to give information about U2 2023 tour dates, they have no concerts in 2022 from this time. For this year, U2 returned to the stage for the first time after the 2022 tour. One year ago, they were mostly played for the festivals.
Will U2 tour in 2023?
Forks, U2 will tour in 2023.
U2’s present residence at the Sphere at the Venetian Resort in Paradise, Nevada, in the Las Vegas Valley is known as U2:UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere. The engagement, expected to last 25 concerts and run from September 29 to December 16, 2023, will officially open the Sphere with performances centered around the band’s 1991 album Achtung Baby.
The performances use the space’s sonic and visual immersion features, including a wraparound interior LED screen with a 16K resolution, beamforming and wave field synthesis speakers, and 4D physical effects.
Since Larry Mullen Jr. will heal from surgery, U2 will not participate in the concert series; Dutch drummer Bram van den Berg from Krezip will step in. This is the first time since 1978 that the band has done so.
The engagement was first reported in July 2022 and confirmed in February 2023 in a Super Bowl LVII television commercial, with tickets going on sale in April and May. U2 released a song named “Atomic City” with a Las Vegas theme to coincide with the beginning of their residency.
The concert’s opening act is a drummer and multi-instrumentalist, Pauli “the PSM” Lovejoy, in the UK. They play DJ music before the show while driving around the general admission area in a neon Trabant.

Here is the press statement for the “U2:UV Achtung Baby Live At Sphere” 2023 tour:
U2 have always – since their earliest days, including the industry-defining ZOO TV Tour which broke the mold in 1991 – pushed the boundaries of live performance, with ground-breaking stage shows that embrace the latest in technology and innovation. The news that the band will launch the Sphere, the state-of-the-art venue currently dominating the Las Vegas skyline, is fitting for a show from the world’s most thrilling live band.
The announcement comes with confirmation that Larry will take time out to undergo and recover from surgery in 2023. These Las Vegas shows will see Larry and the band welcome drummer Bram van den Berg who will be sitting in to join Bono, The Edge and Adam onstage at the Sphere.
The Sphere show has been in the works for a long time. We don’t want to let people down, least of all our audience… the truth is we miss them as much as they appear to miss us… our audience was always the fifth member of the band. Bottom line, U2 hasn’t played live since December 2019 and we need to get back on stage and see the faces of our fans again.
And what a unique stage they’re building for us out there in the desert… We’re the right band, Achtung Baby the right album, and the Sphere the right venue to take the live experience of music to the next level… That’s what U2’s been trying to do all along with our satellite stages and video installations, most memorably on the ZOO TV Tour, which ended in Tokyo 30 years ago this Fall.
“The Sphere is more than just a venue, it’s a gallery and U2’s music is going to be all over the walls.”
Bono, and Adam talked about the tour:
“It’s going to take all we’ve got to approach the Sphere without our bandmate in the drum seat, but Larry has joined us in welcoming Bram van den Berg who is a force in his own right.
The Edge also added:
“The beauty of the Sphere is not only the ground-breaking technology that will make it so unique, with the world’s most advanced audio system, integrated into a structure which is designed with sound quality as a priority; it’s also the possibilities around immersive experience in real and imaginary landscapes.
In short, it’s a canvas of unparalleled scale and image resolution and a once-in-a-generation opportunity. “We all thought about it and decided we’d be mad not to accept the invitation.”
