When is the last REO Speedwagon tour? Band announces touring cease citing “irreconcilable differences”

REO Speedwagon's last tour is scheduled to run from September 27, 2024, to November 23, 2024, in venues across the mainland United States. The tour became the last tour after the band recently announced that they would cease touring in an Instagram page post on September 16, 2024, stating:

"To our fans: Bruce has intended to be Back On the Road Again by now. If it were up to just him, he’d be back on tour… but it's not up to just him. The consensus opinion was that he had not recovered sufficiently to be able to perform at the level the fans have come to expect."

The statement continues:

"Bruce respected that opinion and is grateful that Matt has been around to keep the Wagon rolling through the summer tour. Bruce never had any intention of retiring or walking away from the band, fans, and crew he has loved for almost 50 years."

The statement continues, assuring fans that Kevin Cronin had no intention of leaving the band, before continuing:

"For Kevin’s part, he too has never had any intention of leaving the band, and the fans and crew mean the world to him, as well. Due to this complex situation, irreconcilable differences arose between Bruce and Kevin. So, it is with great sadness that we announce REO Speedwagon will cease touring effective January 1, 2025."

The statement continues:

"Neal, Kevin, and Bruce thank their fans for all their years of loyal support and for giving back to the band such wonderful memories that will remain with each of them forever."
