  • Location / Hartford, CT, USA
  • Venue / Hartford Civic Center

The first show by the band in this city since June 1983 on the Pyromania tour.

The second time at this venue.

The venue is located in the city centre not far from the Connecticut River.

It was opened in January 1975 as the Hartford Civic Center.

The venue was renamed in 2007 as XL Center before becoming PeoplesBank Arena in 2025.

It was closed from 1978 to 1980 following a roof collapse.

The band would play the arena under the XL Center name in May 2018 to start their world tour with Journey as co-headliners.
