The 2024 leg of the tour, originally announced in late October, is billed as a celebration of 50 years of Lynyrd Skynyrd's music.
Lynyrd Skynyrd, a Florida band known for southern rock hits like "Simple Man" and "Sweet Home Alabama," rose to popularity in the 1970s.
ZZ Top, who have their roots in Texas, also became rock icons starting in the 1970s and are known for hits like "La Grange" and "Sharp Dressed Man."
ZZ Top and Lynyrd Skynyrd were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2004 and 2006, respectively.
