The Pretty Reckless Dear God Tour opener can vary by show, so you should look for a date-specific announcement before treating any act as confirmed. A ticket listing identifies a Dear God Tour event but does not name an opening act in its event detail. [1] For more detail, see The Pretty Reckless Dear God Tour: What to Know.
That means you shouldn’t assume the same support act is playing every stop—or rely on an unrelated tour credit as confirmation. For example, a listing that mentions The Pretty Reckless’s past touring history does not say who will open the Dear God Tour event.

An unannounced opener can affect when you want to arrive, especially if you hope to catch the full bill. Keep the support act separate from the headliner in your plans: until an act is named for your show, treat the opener as unknown rather than building your evening around a guess. Check the listing for your specific date and venue before you plan the rest of the night, since the opener can change from show to show.
Where to check for an announced opening act
To find an announced opening act, check the ticket seller’s page for the exact event, the venue’s event listing, and The Pretty Reckless’ official tour page. Compare the details on the event listing itself, since the band’s tour page may help you locate a show without giving supporting-act information. [2][1][3]
Check the ticket seller or promoter
Open the event page for the show you plan to attend and look for a section labeled “Event Details,” “Lineup,” or similar. For example, if you find a Dear God Tour listing, check whether the event description names a supporting artist rather than relying on the tour title alone. Ticketmaster has listed a Dear God Tour event, so its event page is a useful place to look for details tied to that show. [1]
Check the venue and official updates
Look at the venue’s own event listing as well as its official event updates. Compare the venue listing with the ticket page; if one names an opening act and the other does not, check for a newer update before treating the detail as settled. This gives you another place to check the event information without relying on fan posts or third-party summaries.
Use the band’s tour page to find the event
Start with The Pretty Reckless’ official tour page to locate the relevant show, then open the event listing to check for supporting-act details. The band’s site has an “On Tour” section, while ticket and promoter listings can display Dear God Tour events. [2][1][3]
How to confirm set times before show night
Check the venue or event listing for the posted doors and showtime, then use any show-day updates to plan when you arrive. A listed event time is a useful planning reference, but it does not tell you exactly when the opener will take the stage. [1]
Check the schedule before leaving
Open the event details for your show and look for separate entries for doors and showtime. For example, if the listing gives an 8:00 PM event time, use that posted time as your reference—not as proof that the opening act begins at 8:00 PM. [1]
Before you head out, check for a fresh update from the venue, promoter, or ticket provider. Event details can include more than one time, so compare the current notice with the schedule you saved earlier and adjust your departure if the posted information has changed.
Make a practical arrival plan
Work backward from the posted schedule: allow time for your trip, entry, and finding your seat, rather than guessing when the opener starts. If doors and showtime are both listed, decide whether you want to arrive when doors open or closer to the scheduled showtime; either way, use the posted details as your guide. [1]
You can save the event page or take a screenshot before traveling, then check it again on show day for updates. This gives you a clear schedule to follow without relying on assumptions about the opener’s start time.
What if the event page does not name an opener?
If the event page does not name an opener, treat the lineup as unconfirmed until the event or venue announces a supporting act. Don’t assume that a blank opener field means nobody will play before The Pretty Reckless, or that another date’s lineup applies to your show.
If the listing stays silent
Keep your plans flexible rather than building the evening around a presumed opening set. For example, if you’re arranging a ride or deciding when to leave work, avoid using an unannounced opener’s supposed start time as your target. Base any firm arrival plans on details the event has actually posted.
Check again closer to the show
Revisit your event listing as the date approaches; an opener announcement may be added after you first check. Look for a named artist or an explicit update, and distinguish that from general tour information that does not identify your date’s lineup. If nothing changes, continue treating the opener as unconfirmed rather than filling in the gap with a guess.
When you need a reliable arrival plan
If your arrival time depends on whether another artist is playing, contact the venue or ticket provider and ask whether an opener has been announced for your specific event. You can also ask whether they expect further lineup updates and where those updates will appear. Until you receive confirmation, keep your arrival plan adaptable and check the event details again before you leave.
Check your specific date before making plans
Before you finalize plans, verify the support act and schedule for your exact Dear God Tour date, then check again shortly before you travel. A listing for one show may not answer the same questions for another, so use the event details tied to your venue and date rather than relying on assumptions. [1]
As a practical last check, open the event listing you plan to attend and confirm that its details still match your plans. For example, if you saved an event page earlier, revisit that same date before arranging when to leave or coordinating with friends. If the listing changes, use its latest details when planning your trip. The band’s tour page shows tour information, while event listings may identify a particular Dear God Tour date. [2][1][3]
Keep your plans flexible until you have checked close to show day. That small recheck can help you avoid traveling with an outdated assumption about who is playing or when the event begins.
