The Foo Fighters originally announced the Van tour in February to celebrate the band's 25th anniversary and revisit stops from their 1995 tour.

The Foo Fighters released their ninth studio album, Concrete and Gold, in 2017. The Bird and the Bee's Inara George released a new version of her song "Sex in Cars" featuring the Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl on Friday. The song will raise funds for Sweet Relief's COVID-19 relief fund.
