The Eagles will kick off a 2020 tour with a pair of concerts at State Farm Arena.

The band - Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit, as well as Deacon Frey and Vince Gill – will perform its landmark “Hotel California” album in full with an accompanying 46-piece orchestra and 22-voice choir, followed by a set of greatest hits.

The Atlanta shows will take place Feb. 7-8 at 8 p.m. (with a brief intermission). Tickets will go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. Oct. 18 via www.ticketmaster.com and by calling 1-800-745-3000. American Express card members can purchase tickets from 10 a.m. Oct. 14 through 10 p.m. Oct. 17.

The Eagles last brought their trove of hits – with Gill and Frey, son of Glenn, in tow – to Atlanta for a pair of shows in October 2017. Their "Hotel California" album has sold more than 26 million copies, making it the third best-selling U.S. album in history. The band's "Their Greatest Hits 1971-1977" is the best-selling U.S. album in history, with more than 38 million sold.
