Dream Theater announces 40th Anniversary Tour

The iconic lineup of James LaBrie, John Myung, John Petrucci, Mike Portnoy & Jordan Rudess returns to the road

Progressive music titans Dream Theater will return to North America in 2025 for its 40th Anniversary Tour. The trek will be An Evening With Dream Theater, and mark the first tour of North America since drummer Mike Portnoy’s return to the lineup earlier this year, joining vocalist James LaBrie, bassist John Myung, guitarist John Petrucci, and keyboardist Jordan Rudess.

The tour is scheduled for 30 cities across the United States and Canada and kicks off on February 7th in Philadelphia with dates through March 22nd in the band’s hometown of New York City. The tour will make stops in Nashville, Los Angeles, Toronto, and Boston, among others.

Dream Theater will perform classics and fan favorites from their catalog in what promises to be an unforgettable evening of music.

“The excitement we have felt from the fans since the first tour was announced has been overwhelming! Now we get to bring the show to our home country and play a bunch of cities that we haven’t been together in for more than a decade. We can’t wait to continue this historic celebration of 40 years together with everyone in North America next year. We still have plenty of more exciting Dream Theater news to share in the coming weeks,” explains Dream Theater.

The European leg of the 40th Anniversary Tour 2024 – 2025 consists of stops in 23 cities, kicking off on October 20th with dates through November 24th. Some dates are already sold out with others about to get there as limited tickets remain across the continent.

The band has been in their DTHQ studio working on their 16th studio album and the first with Portnoy since 2009’s Black Clouds & Silver Linings. More information on the upcoming release will be unveiled in the future.
