The U2 360° Tour - Coimbra / Portugal

U2

The U2 Concerts are Continuing in Europe
Coimbra / Portugal
2 - 3 October


Following the success of the 2009 tour U2 360° is back in Europe in 2010. Launching in conjunction with the group's 2009 album No Line on the Horizon, the tour will visit stadiums in 2010, whereas the previous two tours, the Elevation Tour and the Vertigo Tour, were primarily played in indoor arenas. The U2 360° Tour is named after the 360-degree staging and audience configuration it uses for shows which U2 claims is "the first time a band has toured in stadiums with such a unique and original structure." In an era of declining CD sales, the tour is expected to be a major source of income for the band. The U2 360° Tour (presented by BlackBerry) kicks off August 10 in Frankfurt and will visit 12 additional cities across Europe including Hannover, Horsens, Helsinki, Moscow, Vienna, Athens, Istanbul, Munich, Paris, Brussels and Seville before finishing at Estadio Cidade Coimbra in Portugal on October 3.
