Freedom Mortgage Pavilion | Camden, New Jersey

Two of the biggest artists in the world, Sting & Peter Gabriel, have come together for a once in a lifetime North American tour! The iconic songwriters, who previously toured together in the 1980s in support of Amnesty International, will be performing some of their biggest hits both separately and together in a collaborative and creative show! The two legends come to BB&T Pavilion on Sunday 26th June – don't miss out!!!

“The interesting thing for me is what happens to our songs when they are juxtaposed with each other’s songs. What I do will change what he does and vice-versa. The songs we trade and the songs that we sing together will have an unexpected result, we hope”, says Sting, whilst Peter adds “For me it’s partly what sounds good in that present incarnation balanced with what people want to hear. You want to try and get both sides and throw in something unfamiliar as well as the hits”.Sting & Peter Gabriel at BB&T Pavilion
