The Gold Over America Tour kicks off in Oceanside

Straight from the success of the Paris Olympics, members of the U.S. gymnastics team will be touring cities across the United States in the Gold Over America Tour.

“From the world’s stage to the GOAT stage, this incredible journey continues, and I can’t wait for fans to see what we have in store this year,” Biles said in a press release for the event. “I love creating unforgettable memories for our audiences every night on tour.”

The GOAT tour kicks off at Oceanside’s new sports venue, the Frontwave Arena, on Monday, Sept. 16, and will stop in Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, and Houston, among other cities.
