Jonas Brothers cancel Jonas20 shows, ditch stadiums for smaller venues

The Jonas Brothers are downscaling their upcoming tour.

The “Burnin’ Up” musicians announced the cancellation of six concerts for their Jonas20: Living the Dream Tour on Thursday, saying they will replace the upcoming stadium performances with shows at smaller venues on the same dates.

“To the fans, we’re so excited to get out and be with you for our 20th-anniversary tour!” the band wrote in a statement on social media. “Every decision we make is with you in mind, ensuring the best experience for our incredible fans. We’re making some changes, but rest assured, all performances are still happening on the same dates and in the same cities. We’re pouring our hearts into making this the best tour we’ve ever done.”

The group went on to explain that fans will have to purchase new tickets for the new shows, but those who bought tickets to the canceled concerts will have priority pre-sale access linked to their Ticketmaster accounts.

“We apologize for any inconvenience these changes have caused, and we can’t wait to see you on the road!” they concluded.

The band’s August 12 show in Washington, D.C., which was scheduled to take place at Nationals Park, will now be held at Jiffy Lube Live, while the Brothers’ gig in Philadelphia on August 14 will be held at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion rather than Citizens Bank Park. Their August 26 concert in Chicago will take place at the Credit Union 1 Amphitheatre (in the suburb Tinley Park) instead of Wrigley Field, and their August 28 performance in Detroit will happen at Little Caesars Arena instead of Comerica Park. Additionally, the band’s Dallas show on August 31 will now be held in the Dos Equis Pavilion rather than the Globe Life Field, and their Los Angeles concert on September 6 will now take place at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood instead of Dodger Stadium.

The band is still set to play shows at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., and Fenway Park in Boston.
