Bruce Springsteen Coming to Royal Farms Arena

Charm City is among more than a dozen stops on The River Tour, featuring Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.

BALTIMORE, MD – Bruce Springsteen fans, the Boss is coming to Baltimore.

The Royal Farms Arena announced Wednesday that Springsteen added Baltimore as a stop on The River Tour, in which he and the E Street Band will perform 20 songs from the 1980 album The River.

The show will be April 20 at the Royal Farms Arena, with tickets going on sale Feb. 5.

The three-hour set will include bonus tracks—some of Springsteen’s classics—such as “Thunder Road,” ”Born to Run,” “Dancing in the Dark” and “Rosalita,” according to a statement about the tour, which said Springsteen only performed the album once in its entirety, in 2009 at Madison Square Garden.
