THE BOSS WILL TAKEOVER ANFIELD STADIUM TOMORROW, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 4, AS PART OF HIS THE LAND OF HOPE AND DREAMS TOUR 08:59, 03 Jun 2025 The stage times for Bruce Springsteen's two Anfield Stadium shows have been confirmed by Liverpool FC. 'The Boss', known for hits including Born in the USA and Dancing In The Dark, is performing alongside the E Street band at the venue on June 4 and 7 after three sold-out shows at Manchester's Co-op Live arena. The Born In the USA singer is renowned for his legendary live shows and regularly mixes up the playlist from the back catalogue of his incredible six decade career. Bruce kicked off his 16-date European tour in Manchester on May 14. After a show in Lille, France, on May 24, his setlist changed considerably. Bruce pulled four classic tracks from the show - 'Something in the Night', 'Reason to Believe', 'Ghosts' and 'Glory Days'. In return, the singer has added 'Lonesome Day', 'Hungry Heart' and 'Bobby Jean'. With the Anfield shows approaching, Bruce's most recent setlists may offer some indication of the hits fans can expect to hear in Liverpool. Bruce previously admitted he will realise a long held dream when he performs in Anfield. In an interview with Simon Mayo for Greatest Hits, he said: "I'm very excited about that. I've never been there. If you come from America, you want to see Liverpool." ‌‌Earlier this month, Bruce issued an update on the European shows as he officially named the tour, The Land Of Hope and Dreams. A spokesperson for Liverpool FC confirmed doors will open from 4.30pm and the show is expected to start at 7.30pm. There is no support act for these shows. Article continues below Hundreds of Bruce Springsteen fans have been meeting up in Stanley Park three times a day for over a week before his Anfield gig. Some confusion arose online after fans of The Boss with tickets were spotted queuing by the ground in the last few days. When the ECHO visited the park yesterday, June 2, fans kept arriving at the meeting point in the park across from Paisley Square. ‌It turns out that they weren’t waiting to get into Anfield. Instead, fans who got there were given a number, which corresponds to how close they will be to the stage. The number is written on their hand and name taken on a register. ‌The fans have to turn up at 10am, 3pm and 7pm each day at roll calls to maintain their place. When the gig takes place, they will be walked in first by Bruce’s security team. This practice has been commonplace for fans going to Bruce’s gigs since 2009, who always liaise with the gig’s organisers for these events and this time is no different. The roll call, like many others, was organised by Anthony Towers, 59, from Warrington. Explaining the logic, he told the ECHO: ”We came down the Friday before the football match here to speak to the venue event team and see if we could do our roll calls and queuing system, and they're on board. “Within two days we outgrew the area they gave us, so we've had to come to Stanley Park. We’re at almost 300 people for night one already. “What happens is you come and say you're night one on it. We'll give you the number on your hand. We'll put your name on the list. You have to then have to attend roll calls every day, which is 10am, 3pm and 7pm. “As long as you keep turning up, you keep your number. That number is the order that we actually get walked in by Bruce's security so there's no mad dash, no tripping people. We walk calming so the people that want to get to the front of the barrier can.” Anthony says the system was thought up after the end of general admission areas at his gigs, known as ‘the pit’. At venues like Anfield, that means hardcore fans could be left at the back watching the gig. Article continues below He said: “If you don’t get at the front, you’ll be behind 5,000, 6,000 people. You can’t see much and have to watch it on the monitors.” Anthony admits there has been some confusion from Anfield locals about their presence. Laughing, he said: “They’ve been great. They call us nutters, but we know that we’re nutters. Everybody’s been great. You cannot fault Liverpool for welcoming us all.” However, Anthony says he does this primarily for his wife Linda, who is a far bigger fan of Bruce’s music. He said: “I’m not a true fan. I like some of his stuff. Others, I can take it or leave it. She really likes his music.”
