DALLAS, TX (CelebrityAccess) — Guitar legend Eric Clapton announced the Crossroads Guitar Festival will return for its fifth installment in 2019.

Set for September 20-21, the festival will take place at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas, Texas, the city that hosted the first edition of the festival.
