• Tanglewood 2019!

  Jan 16, 2019
  
  
  James and his All-Star Band will once again play two nights at Tanglewood in Lenox, MA, on July 3 and 4. The JamesTaylor.com presales for these shows will begin next Monday, January 21 at 10 am EST.
  
  To participate in James’s exclusive ticket presales, please make sure you are signed in to your JamesTaylor.com account. If you do not already have a free JamesTaylor.com account, please click here to create one now.
  
  Please remember: the ticket allotment provided to JamesTaylor.com for the fan presales is a very small number of tickets that sell out quickly — sometimes within the first 30 minutes. We apologize in advance for any frustration but our hope in offering the fan presale is that you will have advance opportunity to purchase great seats. Luckily, if you are unable to purchase tickets in presale, you will have a second chance during the public sale.
