Crystal Pepsi Throwback Tour Brings Music, Baseball And Iconic Clear Cola To Fans Across The U.S.

To honor one of the most iconic eras in baseball and music, the Crystal Pepsi Throwback Tour will present three free shows featuring a variety of 90s artists, centered around stadiums across the U.S. during the 2017 baseball season. In partnership with iHeartRadio's local FM stations, the tour will stop in New York, Phoenix and Miami.
