Overview

The Dead & Company Summer Tour 2016 took place between June 9 and July 30, 2016, comprising a total of 24 concerts in 20 different cities (including performances at three different baseball and football stadiums). The band was one of the headliners at the 2016 Bonnaroo Music Festival.{{cite magazine | last=Blistein | first=Jon | title=Bonnaroo 2016: Pearl Jam, LCD Soundsystem, Dead and Company Lead Lineup | magazine=Rolling Stone | date=January 20, 2016 | url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/bonnaroo-2016-pearl-jam-lcd-soundsystem-dead-and-company-lead-lineup-20160119 | access-date=February 10, 2016}}

The tour ended with the July 30 show at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. The final concert on the east coast was on July 16 at Fenway Park in Boston, Massachusetts. During the course of their career, the Grateful Dead never performed at Fenway Park, and these concerts marked the first shows ever performed there by members of the former band.

Prior to the tour, the band had two public performances in 2016: a promotional appearance on February 18 on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,{{cite web|url=http://www.jambase.com/article/dead-company-to-perform-on-the-tonight-show-starring-jimmy-fallon|title=[Updated] Dead & Company To Perform On 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon'|date=19 February 2016|work=JamBase|access-date=26 February 2016}} and a free show on May 23 at The Fillmore in San Francisco, for which in lieu of payment the band asked attendees to "pay it forward" in some way.{{cite web |url=http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2016/05/18/dead-company-announce-free-pay-it-forward-show-at-fillmore/ |title=Dead & Company Invite Fans To Free Fillmore Show | work=CBS SF Bay Area | date=2016-05-18 | access-date=2017-03-05 }}
