“I am so excited to be doing the Digitour again this year,” Sarah Evershed Penna, one of the Digitour founders and producers, told Tubefilter. “It really shows that online video and social media is continuing to grow. We are thrilled to be offering audiences a chance to see their favorite YouTube musicians on the road again.”

Meredith Valiando, who also founded and produces the Digitour, told Tubefilter, “I am so excited to be in production on the 2nd Digitour

! We changed a lot of skeptical minds who thought online fans would not buy tickets. It is an absolute honor to work with these stars and give them a vehicle, a forty five foot tour bus to be exact, to take their videos on the road and to produce the live version of videos that have received over 2 billion combined views.”

Tickets go on sale starting December 19, 2011.
