Twenty One Pilots are playing downtown Phoenix on the Grammy-winning duo’s biggest headline tour to date, the Clancy World Tour. They'll be at Footprint Center on Friday, Aug. 30.
Having amassed more than 33 billion streams and more than 3 million tickets sold worldwide, the Columbus, Ohio-based duo of Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun have established themselves among the most successfulbands of the 21st century.
They’re also a consistently rewarding live act.
As The Republic noted in 2018, when they played that same venue, which was then called Talking Stick Resort Arena:
“It's been two years since Twenty One Pilots first played Talking Stick Resort Arena. And the brand of showmanship that made their first appearance in that venue such an entertaining spectacle was very much in evidence from the time they took the stage for Friday's sold-out stop on the Bandito Tour.”
