Prince announces "Welcome 2 Chicago" residency

By Alex Young on August 31st, 2012 in News, Tour Dates

Following similar stints in New York City and Los Angeles, Prince will descend on Chicago next month for a multi-date residency at the United Center. The aptly titled "Welcome 2 Chicago" will begin on September 24th, and marks his first shows in the city since 2004.

The residency will also be used to support Rebuild the Dream, the organization founded by Van Jones that seeks to "build strong vibrant communities and to fix our economy from the ground up."

On site at the United Center, Prince and Rebuild the Dream will offer opportunities to learn about, support, and take part in rebuilding vibrant and sustainable communities. Socially-conscious businesses, tech start-ups, entrepreneurs, and other innovators will offer specific tools that individuals and communities can use to improve their economic situation in the short- as well as long-term."

Tickets for the September 24th show will go on sale beginning September 6th. Additional shows will be announced shortly.
