U2 Returns to Buenos Aires With Two River Plate Shows

The dates connect the band's 50th‑anniversary world tour to the upcoming album Carnaval de Luz, with official presales beginning 21 October.

Overview

  • U2 announced on Thursday that it will play two nights at River Plate on 23 and 25 March 2027, and the band confirmed Beck as the special guest for both shows.
  • DF Entertainment published an official seating map and price bands for the concerts, with top tickets reported up to ARS 700,000 and a range of sectors from general admission to Red Zone.
  • Tickets will be sold exclusively through All Access, with a Santander Visa presale scheduled for Wednesday 21 October and a general sale opening Thursday 22 October, and Santander offering up to six interest‑free installments.
  • The Argentina dates are part of The Greatest Show on Earth tour that accompanies Carnaval de Luz, U2’s new album due 13 November and featuring collaborators such as Brian Eno, Martin Garrix, Ryan Tedder and a track linked to Rosalía.
  • Coverage across outlets largely agrees on the core facts but contains a few minor errors—one report mislisted May for the concerts—so organizers advised international buyers to check card authorizations for cross‑border purchases.
