Noah Kahan Announces a 31-Date Stadium run as part of The Last Of The Bugs World Tour
After a landmark year with his critically acclaimed #1 album and sold-out world tour, 2x GRAMMY®-nominated, multi-platinum artist Noah Kahan is stepping onto the biggest stages of his career. Following this year’s sold-out The Great Divide World Tour, Kahan announces his biggest global headline tour to date: a 31-date stadium run as part of The Last Of The Bugs World Tour. For the first time in his career, after selling out baseball stadiums across the U.S., he’ll bring his music to even bigger stadiums across North America, Europe, and the U.K.
The North American leg of The Last Of The Bugs World Tour, promoted by Live Nation, kicks off April 24th at Sanford Stadium in Athens, GA, and stops at major stadiums across the U.S. and Canada, including Nashville’s Nissan Stadium, Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium, and East Rutherford’s MetLife Stadium. It will also bring the beloved New Englander home for four nights to Boston’s Fenway Park, following his record-breaking, sold-out four consecutive show run this summer and induction into the Fenway Music Hall of Fame. Following the North American dates, Kahan will head to Europe and the U.K. to continue his stadium run overseas, including stops at Berlin’s Waldbühne, Seville’s Plaza de España, Paris’ Hippodrome ParisLongchamp, and more, as well as three previously announced nights at London’s Wembley Stadium.

Next week, Kahan kicks off the sold-out U.K. and European leg of The Great Divide World Tour, following fully sold-out North American, Australian, and New Zealand dates this summer. The Great Divide World Tour sold more than 1.8 million tickets worldwide and earned Kahan the highest-ranked debut on Pollstar’s LIVE75 chart.
Kahan’s The Great Divide has emerged as a major GRAMMY-season contender, as the record has appeared on every major prediction list for “Album Of The Year,” “Record Of The Year,” and “Song Of The Year” from Billboard, Rolling Stone, Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, and HITS Daily Double. The recognitions follow his recent cover story in Billboard’s 2026 GRAMMY Preview Issue, GRAMMY Museum interview and performance, CBS Sunday Morning interview, and Zane Lowe interview.
In addition, his critically acclaimed Netflix documentary Noah Kahan: Out of Body recently entered Letterboxd’s Top 50 Documentaries list, following its SXSW 24 Beats Per Second Audience Award win and a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes.
Kahan’s momentum also continues on the charts, as he remains the only artist to have two albums chart in the Billboard 200 Top 10 for the past six consecutive weeks: the 5x Platinum-certified Stick Season and Platinum-certified The Great Divide.
Kahan’s new song “Draw You Out” was recently released as the lead single for The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping (The Album). Upon release, the track debuted at #1 on Spotify Top Songs Debut USA Chart.

“The Greatest Show on Earth”? Now that’s a throwdown. It’s a dare, to ourselves as much as anyone, to try and have the best night of anybody’s life.
A bit of showman, a bit of shaman, a riot of colour, unreasonable guitar, bass and drums, and tunes you can hold onto.
Because if people are gonna show up, we certainly are.”
Bono, Edge, Adam and Larry
A new track titled ‘The Greatest Show On Earth’ is out now. Co-written by U2 and Brian Eno, it is the third single to be taken from Carnaval De Luz. A story of lovers fighting to keep faith in each other – and faith itself. The video is directed by Anton Corbijn and was shot in the Californian desert; it satirizes the band as a religious cult where women do all the heavy lifting. Watch HERE. Listen HERE.
Acknowledged as one of the best live acts in the world, U2 has always – since their earliest days, including the industry-defining ZOO TV Tour which broke the mold in 1991 – consistently pushed the boundaries of live performance, with ground-breaking stage shows that embrace the latest in technology and innovation, most recently with one of the band’s most ambitious creative projects to date, a sold-out run of 40 history-making, future-defining shows at Sphere, Las Vegas. Carnaval De Luz presents: The Greatest Show On Earth World Tour marks U2’s return to a stadium setting for a performance spectacle embracing human connection and intimacy at a grand scale, with a set list drawn from across the band’s entire catalogue; the band’s first stadium dates since wrapping the acclaimed The Joshua Tree Tour at Mumbai’s DY Patil Stadium on December 15th, 2019, the final stop on a tour which saw U2 play to almost 3 million fans around the world.
Tickets for the U.K. and European dates for Carnaval De Luz presents: The Greatest Show On Earth World Tour will first be available via U2.com Subscriber Presale commencing on Monday, November 2 at 10am local time.
Visa is proud to be an Official Sponsor of Carnaval De Luz presents: The Greatest Show On Earth World Tour.
Visa cardholders will have access to presale tickets in the EU and UK from Wednesday 4 November at 10 a.m. local time until 10 p.m. the same day, while supply lasts. Cardholders can purchase tickets via visa.com/u2 during the presale window.
Frank Cooper, Visa’s Chief Marketing Officer, said: “Few artists have achieved what U2 has: the rare ability to remain iconic across generations, cultures and continents. Their music transcends time and place, bringing people together through a shared sense of possibility, connection and belonging. At Visa, we believe in the power of experiences to connect us to one another and to the world around us. We’re excited to partner with U2 on The Greatest Show On Earth World Tour, giving fans access to the show and working with U2 and fan communities to create moments that matter.”
An Artist Presale will begin on Thursday, November 5 (details below). Remaining tickets will be available during the general onsale starting Friday, November 6 at 10am local time at U2.com.
To participate in the U2 Artist Presale on Thursday, November 5 at 10am local time, you must sign up HERE by Sunday, November 1 at 10:59pm GMT / 11:59pm CET.
