EDM artist deadmau5, aka Joel Zimmerman, has announced summer 2022 tour dates. Dubbed the “We Are Friends” tour, it will feature opening appearances from Kasablanca, Lamorn, Bensley, BlackGummy, No Mana B2B EDDIE, HNTR, Morgin Madison and Lupa. Tickets go on sale Thursday, April 28 at 10 AM local time.
The shows start in mid-July at Philadelphia’s The Met venue, continuing with a few dates a month until December 2022. The tour will hit venues like the Echostage in Washington D.C., the Masonic Temple Theatre in Detroit, the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, and a pair of shows at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre outside Denver.
The tour is named after the We Are Friends compilation series, which highlights up-and-coming electronic artists. This year’s edition marks the 11th anniversary of the comp. Additionally, deadmau5 is partnering with Fandiem on a giveaway to win tickets to Friends in Miami: The Ultimate Miami Basel Adventure. The contest is to help The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) – simply donate to the organization at the time you purchase tickets to be automatically entered.
