America is coming to you this year.
From July through November, the classic rockers are bringing their stable of iconic ’70s radio staples to theaters, concert halls, auditoriums and casinos all over the country that inspired their band name.
That includes gigs at Atlantic City’s Ocean Casino Resort on Saturday, Aug. 3, New Brunswick, NJ’s State Theatre on Friday, Nov. 1 and Brookville, NY’s Tilles Center Concert Hall on Saturday, Nov. 2.
And yes, they play the hits.
“We usually end the show with ‘Sister Golden Hair’ and then ‘A Horse With No Name,’ singer Gerry Beckley told Americana Highways. “It’s hard to beat those two songs for the energy we get back from our fans.”
As of now, tickets are available for all 30 of their upcoming 2024 concerts.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on America tickets was $35 before fees on Vivid Seats.
Other concerts start from $46 before fees to $110 after fees.
Not too shabby to see a legendary group that’s been together for 54 years (!) and won the Grammy for Best New Artist way back in 1973.

America band member background
Fun fact: 1/2 of America isn’t American born — singer and guitarist Dewey Bunnell was actually born in Yorkshire, England to an American serviceman father and his English wife.
As for Gerry Beckley, he was also born to an American father and English mother. The only difference is he originally hails from Forth Worth, TX.
Bunnell and Beckley ended up forming the band with fellow founding member Dan Peek — who passed away in 2011 — in the late 1960s when the three attended London Central High School in Bushey Hall in north west London.
The rest is history.
