The Madison Square Garden Company and Metropolitan Entertainment announced today that Red Hot Chili Peppers will return to Madison Square Garden in support of their latest album, The Getaway on Wednesday, February 15, 2017 at 7:30PM. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, September 23, 2016 at 10:00AM.

The Getaway debuted at #1 on the Billboard Album Sales Chart and at #2 on the Billboard Top 200 upon its release in June. The Getaway marks the Grammy Award-winning band's seventh top 10 album and third #2 on the Top 200 Chart. The album debuted at #1 in Australia, Belgium, Ireland, Netherlands and New Zealand and at #2 in the United Kingdom and Germany. The Getaway was produced by Danger Mouse and mixed by Nigel Godrich.

The album was praised by Rolling Stone: "top-shelf modern-rock splendor," People: "their best album in ages", USA Today: "...proves not only that the longtime rockers still sizzle 30 years in, but also are capable of victoriously revamping their sound," and many more.

One of the most successful acts in rock history, Red Hot Chili Peppers have sold more than 60 million albums, including five multi-platinum LPs and won six Grammy Awards, including "Best Rock Album" for Stadium Arcadium, "Best Rock Performance By a Duo or Group" for "Dani California," "Best Rock Song" for "Scar Tissue," and "Best Hard Rock Performance With Vocal" for "Give It Away." The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in April 2012. The Red Hot Chili Peppers' last studio album, The Getaway, was released by Warner Bros. Records on June 17, 2016.
