The good news is we won’t have to wait very long to see Bruce make his way to the tri-state area. The Boss will perform four shows in less than a week in early April, with the first two at the IZOD Center on the 3rd and 4th before making his way into New York City on the 6th and 9th at Madison Square Garden.

Tickets for those shows go on sale January 27th.

Before Springsteen hops across the pond for the European leg of his tour, he’ll make one more pit stop in New Jersey when he takes over the Prudential Center in Newark on May 2nd. Those tickets also go on sale on January 27th.
