Alice Cooper, the legendary rock and roll icon, has thrilled fans with the announcement of his 2025 tour dates, which will see him perform across various cities in the United States during the spring and summer. This tour, part of the ongoing “Too Close for Comfort” series, expands his itinerary with several additionals to his performance roster, promising audiences nationwide an experience of theatrical rock that has defined Cooper's reputation over the decades. The tour kicks off on May 2nd in Huntsville, Alabama, at the VBC Mark C. Smith Concert Hall, effectively capturing the essence of American rock and roll's vibrant spirit.

Cooper's 2025 tour itinerary includes an extensive list of cities, with significant stops on May 9th at the Sonic Temple Art & Music Festival in Columbus, Ohio, highlighting the tour's reach and the artist's enduring appeal. Fans in New York can anticipate Cooper's performance at the Stanley Performing Arts Center in Utica on May 22nd, showcasing his return to a region that has long appreciated his musical prowess. This concert, like many others on the tour, emphasizes his role as an influential figure in the evolution of rock music, particularly for his signature shock rock style that blends elements of horror and theatricality.

As a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, Alice Cooper has significantly influenced various aspects of entertainment beyond music. With his induction in 2011, Cooper is celebrated not only for his chart-topping hits such as “School's Out,” “No More Mr. Nice Guy,” and “Feed My Frankenstein” but also for his contributions as an actor and cultural influencer. His multipart career includes roles in films like “Wayne's World” and TV appearances in shows like “Monk” and “That '70s Show,” broadening his impact across creative industries. His work with the Hollywood Vampires, alongside prominent figures like Johnny Depp and Joe Perry, further showcases his dynamic involvement in the contemporary rock scene.

Alice Cooper's tour will also feature several unique configurations and collaborations. Notable is his one-off appearance as an opening act for My Chemical Romance on August 15 in Philadelphia, after which he resumes his headlining shows through Virginia and beyond, wrapping up in Memphis, Tennessee, on August 30th at Graceland Soundstage. This eclectic mix of concert settings and festival appearances ensures a range of experiences for diverse audiences, maintaining Cooper's legacy as a versatile performer adept at both intimate and large-scale events.

Anticipation for Cooper's performances is further heightened by the noteworthy return of his longtime guitarist, Nita Strauss, to his touring ensemble for this line of shows, following the stint by Gilby Clarke from Guns N’ Roses fame. Strauss's return promises to amplify the signature sound that defines Cooper's theatrical concerts, where music is performed alongside dramatic visual storytelling, making every performance a memorable encounter.

Tickets for Alice Cooper's 2025 tour are available for purchase through platforms like Ticketmaster, with presale opportunities providing earlier access to some of the most eager fans. Given the artist's history of sold-out shows and the large-scale production values of his event attractions, ticket sales are expected to move swiftly, highlighting the enduring enthusiasm and support from Cooper's fanbase worldwide.
