Passion Pit, who played Camp Bisco over the weekend (7/13), have been on a tour all year, which included a huge NYC show at Madison Square Garden back in February. You may remember that the MSG show went on as planned despite the huge blizzard that hit NYC that day.

Passion Pit have just expanded their tour, and to make up for anyone who missed the MSG show because of the storm, they’ve scheduled “make up shows” happening in NYC on September 6 and 7 at Hudson River Park’s Pier 26, right before the band plays Boston Calling. Tickets for the Pier 26 shows go on sale Friday (7/19) at noon, and discounted tickets will be offered to anyone who had purchased a ticket for their MSG show but couldn’t make it. Proceeds will also go to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

Passion Pit’s tour also includes an Atlantic City show happening on November 1 at House of Blues Atlantic City. That show, and many others on the tour, is being opened by The Joy Formidable, but no openers have been announced for the Pier 26 shows yet. Tickets for the AC show go on sale Friday (7/19) at 10 AM with an AmEx presale starting Wednesday (7/17) at 10 Am and Ticketmaster/Total Rewards presales starting Thursday (7/18) at 10 AM.

All dates are listed, along with a couple videos, below…
