Benson Boone to Launch First U.S. Arena Tour in Minnesota
Benson Boone is taking a major leap this summer — literally and figuratively — as he headlines his first U.S. arena tour, starting in St. Paul, Minnesota.
The fast-rising 22-year-old pop sensation will kick off his American Heart Tour at the Xcel Energy Center on August 22, fresh off a high-profile debut on Saturday Night Live. The tour supports his second studio album, American Heartbreak, set to release on June 20.
Boone, known for his powerful vocals, magnetic stage presence, and daredevil antics (including a balcony dive at Minneapolis’ Fine Line in 2023), has quickly become one of pop’s most electrifying new performers. His breakout hit “Beautiful Things” continues to dominate both streaming platforms and radio charts, solidifying his mainstream momentum.
Tickets for the St. Paul show go on sale this Friday at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster, with presales starting Wednesday. No openers have been confirmed yet, but expectations are high for a visually and sonically dynamic tour.
From viral videos to arena stages, Boone’s rapid rise promises an unforgettable debut — and Minnesotans will be the first to see it live.
