Atlanta will be a stop on the Sparks headline tour happening spring 2022.

Following Sparks’ first sold-out shows on Feb. 7-8, 2022, at Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, the venerable duo will perform at The Eastern music venue in Atlanta on March 21, 2022.

Presale tickets for the Sparks Fan Club are available beginning Tuesday, July 13, at 10 a.m., and the Sparks Maeling List presale tickets go on sale Wednesday, July 14, at 10 a.m. General on-sale tickets for the tour start on Friday, July 16, at 10 a.m. via allsparks.com.

The Los Angeles-based brothers were the subjects in Edgar Wright’s documentary “The Spark Brothers,” which premiered last month. The film took audiences on a musical journey through five decades with Sparks, joined by celebrity fans such as Flea, Björk, Beck, “Weird Al” Yankovic, Neil Gaiman and more all celebrating the legacy of Sparks.

Additionally, Sparks’ new film “Annette” is set to be released in U.S. theaters later this year. The film was originally a Sparks album but has been transformed into a musical. It tells a life-altering story of a stand-up comedian and his opera singer wife whose daughter possesses a special gift.

The film was written by the Mael brothers and directed by French director Leos Carax. “Annette” is set to premiere in theaters on Friday, Aug. 6, 2021, before arriving exclusively on Amazon Prime Video on Friday, Aug. 20, 2021.
