Last night (June 10), McCartney took to his website to share five live dates in South America, all take place in October. The trek will kick off in Uruguay on October 1, before he performs in Argentina on October 5 and Chile on October 11. After a short break, Macca will return to Argentina for an October 23 show before he ends his tour in Peru on October 27.

Paul McCartney’s South American ‘Got Back’ tour dates are:

05 – River Plate Stadium – Bueno Aires, Argentina
11 – Estadio Monumental – Santiago, Chile
23 – Mario Alberto Kempes – Córdoba, Argentina

In May, he was confirmed as the first billionaire musician in the UK, with his net worth skyrocketing over the past year. In the listing, he is said to have a net worth of £1billion – a figure which has grown significantly over the past 12 months.

In the past year, The Sunday Times reports, the 81-year-old music icon boosted his wealth by £50million. This will have been aided by his time touring across 2023 and the lucrative value of his lengthy discography.

It will also have been aided no doubt by the release of ‘Now And Then’ – the “final” song by The Beatles to feature all four members, which was shared in November – and the re-release of their 1970 documentary Let It Be.
