U2 at Soldier Field

U2 performed a series of concerts at Soldier Field in Chicago during their 360° Tour in 2009. The tour, which supported their album "No Line on the Horizon," featured a unique circular stage surrounded by a massive four-legged structure known as "The Claw." This setup allowed the band to play to all sides of the audience, increasing venue capacities and creating a dynamic performance environment. The concerts included a mix of old and new songs, with seven tracks from "No Line on the Horizon" being performed. The shows were marked by their high-tech visuals and themes, including outer space imagery and social messages. Over three nights, U2 drew a total attendance of 135,872 people to Soldier Field. The concerts were praised for their energy and spectacle, with U2 showcasing their ability to blend intimate moments with large-scale production. The setlists varied slightly between shows, with notable performances like the live debut of "Your Blue Room" on September 13. The tour's innovative stage design and engaging performances made these shows memorable events in U2's history. The combination of music, visuals, and the iconic stage setup provided an unforgettable experience for the large audiences attending each night.
