Irish Rock Band U2 has hand selected Fader Higher to direct the production of their upcoming 360 tour. This will be Fader Higher Production’s third U2 experience and the innovative 360 degree stage provides Fader Higher’s biggest challenge yet. The steel structure is 164 ft high and will require a massive 120 trucks to transport.
The tour will begin in Barcelona on 30 June and play in Europe through to 22 August 2009. The North American leg of the tour is planned to begin on 12 September 2009 at Soldier Field in Chicago and will end on 28 October 2009. The band will return to American stadiums for June and July 2010, and travel back to Europe for August and September 2010. The band tentatively plans to tour South America sometime in 2010. The U2 360° Tour could potentially consist of 90–100 shows over the two years.
