New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The recently announced TOTALLY TUBULAR FESTIVAL will not only make its North American debut this summer but is now adding additional markets due to impressive ticket sales. "Sales in our initial 17 markets have been so strong, that I decided to add new markets, and invite more friends to the party," says Jon Pleeter CPO (Chief Party Officer) of TOTALLY TUBULAR FESTIVAL. Tickets for these shows will go on sale Friday, February 16 at 10:00am local time. Get tickets here: totallytubularfestival.com.
The festival features artists that exploded in the pop culture zeitgeist in the early to mid-1980's thanks mainly to the high rotation of their music videos on MTV; the genre has also seen a resurgence in popularity in recent years. The artists performing on the 2024 tour include THOMAS DOLBY, THOMPSON TWINS' TOM BAILEY, MODERN ENGLISH (select markets), MEN WITHOUT HATS, THE ROMANTICS, BOW WOW WOW, TOMMY TUTONE (select markets), and THE PLIMSOULS. WANG CHUNG has been added to the Huntsville, AL and Washington DC shows. For the first time, TOTALLY TUBULAR FESTIVAL just unveiled a merchandise line, available for purchase at totallytubularfestival.com.
