British rock band Queen are set to tour across North America this summer with vocalist Adam Lambert.
The band, which features original members Brian May and Roger Taylor alongside the American Idol alumnus, will kick off their US visit on 19 June at the United Centre in Chicago.
The tour will culminate in on Sunday 20 July in Washington, DC at the Merriweather Post Pavilion, their only outdoor summer concert.
Adam has been the legendary rock band’s on and off vocalist since 2009.
He said: ‘I'm completely in awe of the Queen phenomenon.
‘The thought of sharing the stage for a full set in North America is so beautifully surreal. I'm honoured to be able to pay my respects to Freddie's memory; he's a personal hero of mine, and I am deeply grateful for the chance to sing such powerful music for fans of this legendary band. I know this tour will be a huge milestone for me, and with the support of Brian, Roger and the rest of the band, I feel like magic will be on display.’

Tickets will be on sale beginning Friday 14 March.
