David Lee Roth, the legendary singer from the iconic band Van Halen, is hitting the road again for a summer 2025 U.S. tour after a five-year hiatus. Scheduled to kick off on July 31 in Hollywood, Florida, Roth will bring his energetic stage presence to more than a dozen cities, wrapping up in Napa, California, on September 14. Fans can expect him to hit renowned venues such as the Hard Rock Live in Atlantic City and The Factory in St. Louis. This tour marks Roth's profound return to music after announcing retirement in 2021—a decision that was reconsidered amidst scheduling woes and pandemic disruptions.

The announcement of Roth's tour follows his electrifying performance at the M3 Rock Festival in Columbia, Maryland, on May 3. This was his first full solo concert in five years, where he delivered a setlist packed with Van Halen classics. Songs like “Panama”, “Jump”, and “Ain't Talkin' ‘Bout Love” brought nostalgia to the festival attendees and were reminiscent of the times when Roth was at the zenith of his music career. Throughout the years, Roth has left an indelible mark on rock music, both with Van Halen and as a solo artist.

Roth has been known for his flair for showmanship and a deep repertoire of hits. The 2025 tour is no exception, packed with a high-energy performance and a lineup that appeals to both longtime fans and new listeners. The pre-sale for the tour, facilitated by Live Nation using the code “FREESTYLE”, commenced on May 6, while general ticket sales will begin on May 9 through Ticketmaster. With his charismatic persona and a musical legacy that spans several decades, Roth's return is set to be a significant highlight of the year for rock enthusiasts.

Aside from the upcoming tour, Roth's recent activities have stirred significant interest. He's been busy releasing new solo versions of Van Halen’s hit tracks, collaborating with musicians like Al Estrada, Ryan Wheeler, and Francis Valentino. Recorded in May 2022, these tracks reflect Roth's dedication to preserving the legacy of Van Halen music while bringing a fresh perspective to the sound. This live recording session at Henson Recording Studio in Hollywood saw a collection of 14 songs captured without the assistance of pitch correction, earning praise for its authenticity.

Roth's imminent return to the stage defies his former retirement proclamation, showcasing the singer’s undying passion for music and performing. The withdrawals he experienced after truncating his Las Vegas residency in early 2022 couldn’t dampen his infectious love for live performances, and the announced dates suggest that Roth's tours still hold a compelling allure. He has repeatedly mentioned his presumed ‘retirement', drawing humorous parallels to fictional characters that repeatedly retire and return.

The tour also marks Roth’s strategy to connect deeply with fans through live experiences. The setlist is expected to be dominated by beloved Van Halen hits, appealing to a broad demographic eager to relive those signature melodies and rock anthems that defined a generation. Such performances soothe nostalgia and reaffirm Roth’s status as a rock icon. This tour holds promises of not just musical performances but a full-blown celebration of rock music legacy.
