Tickets will be made available through multiple presales that were expected to begin Wednesday. They will be offered to the general public on Friday morning at 10 a.m.

Admission prices started at $25 and topped out at $99.50.

Evanescence were very popular in the mid-2000s. The band won two Grammy Awards for its “Fallen” album, which sold more than 17 million copies. Follow-up albums were snatched up by millions more worldwide.

The band has taken two hiatuses since it was created in 1995. Its latest one ended last year when the group released “Synthesis” and announced it would go on tour again.

Stirling, on the other hand, has been quite busy. She performed on “Dancing with the Stars” last season and finished as the runner-up while touring to promote her all-Christmas album “Warmer in the Winter.”

Last year, she won her second Billboard Music Award for her album “Brave Enough,” which was released in 2016.
