Bruce Springsteen is steering the E Street Band back into the Bay Area, with a stop at Chase Center in San Francisco on April 13. The 7:30 p.m. show is part of the Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour, a spring U.S. run built on marathon sets and a very clear political through-line.
The Chase Center event listing has the April 13 date on the books, with doors at 6:30 PM and the main set slated for 7:30 PM, and notes that tickets are available through the arena's official channels. The performance is billed as part of Springsteen's Land of Hope & Dreams American Tour and appears on both the arena schedule and the artist's official tour lineup, according to Ticketmaster.
Tom Morello will appear on select songs
Guitarist Tom Morello is set to jump in with Springsteen on selected songs during the U.S. dates. Morello said he was "reminded how important our platform is" and described the team-up as a way to shine a light on what he called current threats to democracy, as reported by MusicRadar.
Tickets and price notes
Tickets for the Chase Center date are on sale through primary outlets and resale platforms, and prices swing sharply depending on section and demand. Early listings showed starting prices around $218 for the April 13 show, according to The Mercury News, so fans should expect more price turbulence between the primary box office and resellers.
Getting to Chase Center
Chase Center sits at 1 Warriors Way in Mission Bay and is directly served by the UCSF/Chase Center stop on Muni's T Third Street line, which will be the path of least resistance for a lot of concertgoers. Venue and transit guidance recommends arriving early, especially if you plan to rely on on-site parking, which can sell out quickly. For transit details, maps and parking options, check SFMTA and the arena's visitor information on Chase Center.
What the tour is about
When he announced the U.S. leg, Springsteen cast the Land of Hope & Dreams American Tour as a kind of musical line in the sand in defense of American democracy. He told fans that "we are living through dark, disturbing and dangerous times" but urged them not to lose hope because, as he put it, "the cavalry is coming!" Coverage in AP News notes that the show blends those themes with a no-holds-barred live set.
What to expect
Fans can expect a full E Street Band production that weaves classic hits with newer material, along with horn arrangements and choir-backed numbers, according to Springsteen's official tour information. The band lineup and the Chase Center date are listed on the official tour page.
