\n\tJohn Summit<\/a> is going big, announcing his first-ever arena tour<\/a> in support of his latest album, CTRL ESCAPE<\/em>, on Wednesday.<\/p>\n \n\tWhile the majority of DJs perform at nightclubs and music<\/a> festivals, Summit is joining a list of several prominent DJs who have transitioned to major arena and stadium tours, including Illenium, The Chainsmokers, Ti\u00ebsto and Kaskade.<\/p>\n \n\tThe CTRL ESCAPE Arena Tour, which kicks off in October, will span 20 shows across North America, including Chicago, Miami, Brooklyn, Boston and more. \u201cThe tour will feature a new production concept that reflects Summit\u2019s forward-thinking approach, creating a larger-than-life atmosphere and immersive experience for this next era. Fans can expect high-impact production to elevate every moment of the show,\u201d according to a press release.<\/p>\n \n\tBefore the arena tour gets underway, Summit will also make his Ibiza residency debut this summer, as well as headline several festivals, including Lollapalooza, Tomorrowland and Experts Only.<\/p>\n \n\tThe tour follows Summit\u2019s sophomore album, CTRL ESCAPE<\/em>, which was released on April 15. \u201cThis is a kind of a crazy, artistic journey, and I love to be able to share my story of breaking out of the matrix that is the corporate life and really try to push boundaries as best I can in electronic music,\u201d the artist previously said of the album<\/a>. \u201cLike this is my life and passion, and I truly pour my soul into this because I just fucking love it so much.\u201d<\/p>\n
