The show is slated for Tuesday, September 19. Tickets will go on sale Friday, September 15 at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster. The tickets will begin at $99 with 100 percent of the proceeds going to Mayer’s own Heart and Armor Foundation.

Mayer has taken measures to make sure fans can buy the tickets at face value. The tickets will be nontransferable. If a fan purchases a ticket and cannot attend, they will have to list their ticket for sale on Ticketmaster’s Face Value Ticket Exchange. No additional fees will be added during the Ticket Exchange process.

Two pairs of tickets are being auctioned off via Charity Auctions Today. The tickets will come with an autographed poster and early entry into the venue. The bid is currently at $10,401.00.

Mayer founded the Heart and Armor Foundation in 2012. The nonprofit seeks to develop innovative support for veterans. Since the foundation’s inception, they have generated nearly $8 million in grants for further research.

The Los Angeles show comes before the fall leg of Mayer’s larger solo acoustic tour. Mayer has a number of dates scheduled for October through November. Check them out, below.

American Songwriter witnessed Mayer as he rolled into Nashville on his acoustic trek earlier this year.

“Mayer’s storytelling and guitar handiwork was evident throughout as he took fans on a musical and life journey,” a review of the show read. “Throwback videos of his early days were shown between songs giving more personal insight to the man behind the hits. Many songs highlighted Mayer’s guitar chops with minute-long musical interludes and intricate guitar picking.”
