It’s finally happening!

32 years after the release of the eponymous The Joshua Tree, Irish rockers and music icon U2 are giving Filipino fans what they’ve long been waiting for:a night of musically-induced tears for one night only as part of the ongoing The Joshua Tree Tour 2019.

In celebration of the critically-acclaimed record’s 30th anniversary, as well as due to the renewed resonance in recent times of the record’s socio-political themes laced with spiritual imagery, the tour will see the legendary quartet paying homage to their 5th studio effort, allowing fans here in Manila to be immersed in its dark motifs. Expect to hear all-time favorites such as “With or Without You,” “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For,” and “Where the Streets Have No Name,” all from the 1987 album, in addition to a plethora of other hits spanning a career that has stood the test of time.

Brought to you by MMI Live, The Joshua Tree Tour 2019 is happening on December 11, with all roads leading to the Philippine Arena. Ticket sales for the general public start September 5, with fan-club pre-sale happening from Sept 1-3.
