(ATLANTIC CITY, NJ) -- Critically-acclaimed, multi-platinum selling band Young the Giant announces the In The Open 2025 Acoustic Tour. An intimate concert experience performed in beautiful spaces and venues around the country, the band will be supported by Cassandra Coleman (debut album produced by Jack Antonoff out June 6 via Warner) throughout. Locally, the tour comes to Tropicana Atlantic City on Saturday, July 12, 2025.

Young the Giant shared that, “’In The Open’ has been our superpower as a band since we started playing music together. There’s something so thrilling about reimagining our music in a way that’s more improvised, less controlled, and in a place you wouldn’t expect. We’re hoping to bring this feeling to you in our new tour Young the Giant: In The Open. While we can’t play a full set for you under a bridge or on a cliffside, we hope these beautiful intimate venues will give you the same feeling.”

Tickets will be available starting with artist presale on Tuesday, June 3 at 10:00am local time. Venue/local presales begin the following day, June 4 at 10:00am local, followed by Spotify’s presale on June 5 at 10:00am local. All presales end on Thursday, June 5 at 10:00pm local and general on sale begins Friday, June 6 at 10:00am local at youngthegiant.com.

Young the Giant will also offer an In The Open VIP Soundcheck Experience which includes access to the band’s soundcheck ritual — featuring unreleased songs, deep cuts, spontaneous stories and more.

On this tour, Young the Giant is once again teaming up with REVERB to make their tour more sustainable, engage fans in meaningful climate action, and support the nonprofit’s groundbreaking Music Decarbonization Project, which fast-tracks innovative climate solutions to eliminate the music industry’s carbon pollution at the source.
