With virtuoso guitarist and longtime collaborator Dominic Miller and dynamic drummer Chris Maas (Mumford & Sons, Maggie Rogers), fans will have an opportunity to see Sting perform the most electrifying hits and rarities from his timeless discography.

The "STING 3.0" North American tour had several swift sellouts across North America and kicked off at the Fillmore in Detroit, MI to rave reviews:

“It was the kind of night — world-class performers, and performance, in an intimate space — that gets talked about for years.” (Oakland Press)

“It was the sort of show that connected the broader artistic dots, from the crisply syncopated Police stuff to his jazz-kissed solo excursions, while showcasing the songwriting that runs as the through line to it all.” (Detroit Free Press)

The tour continues with a special series of shows scheduled across North America, with the full itinerary included below.

Known for his groundbreaking work as a solo artist and as the frontman and songwriter in the seminal group The Police, Sting, managed by Martin Kierszenbaum/Cherrytree Music Company, has consistently pushed the boundaries of musical innovation throughout his illustrious career. The "STING 3.0" Tour represents a new dynamic era showcasing selections from his vast catalog through the urgent lens of a tight three-piece combo and inspired his new song, “I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart)” - mixed by 4-time Grammy Award-winning mix engineer Robert Orton- released September 5 on Cherrytree Music Company/Interscope Records.

Members of Sting’s Fan Club will have the opportunity to access a special pre-sale for the newly added date by visiting sting.com, starting Monday, October 28. Additional presales will run throughout the week. The general on sale will begin Friday, November 1 at 10am PT on sting.com.
