Above & Beyond Announce North American Summer Tour in Support of New Album ‘Bigger Than All Of Us’
GRAMMY-nominated electronic trio Above & Beyond return to North America this summer for a 13-date amphitheater tour in support of their forthcoming studio album, Bigger Than All Of Us.
Presented by Live Nation and spanning three months, the tour marks the group’s first full album tour in North America since 2018’s ‘Common Ground.’ It kicks off on August 15 in Vancouver and concludes on October 4 at the iconic Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View. Other stops include major cities such as New York City, Chicago, Toronto, Boston, and Atlanta, among others.
Bigger Than All Of Us explores the theme of reconnection—a message that will come to life on this tour, both musically and visually, through a bold new stage concept. Debuted to tens of thousands of fans across two weekends at Coachella, the brand-new stage production elevates the band’s live show experience like never before (watch: Above & Beyond live from Coachella 2025 here).
This striking production features a ‘spaceship’-inspired DJ booth, designed to immerse the audience in a fluid, circular environment. Born from a vision by the band and further developed by longtime collaborators Dylan Byrne and Neil Marsh, the concept aims to break away from the rigidity of traditional stage design. A dynamic LED ring interacts with the screen behind it, creating a sense of movement, warmth, and connection that mirrors the organic, nature-inspired qualities of Above & Beyond’s music.
“Our music has always been about togetherness, connection, and the shared emotional experience,” the band says. “This tour—and this stage—is a celebration of that feeling, brought to life in a new way.”
The pre-sale opens on Wednesday, April 30, at 10 am local time, with the general sale beginning on Friday, May 2, at 10 am local time. Fans can sign up now for early access here. VIP packages will also be available; more information will be shared soon.
Above & Beyond has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 from every ticket sold goes to support organizations working to protect the environment, end the loneliness epidemic, and provide access to mental health care.
Bigger Than All Of Us is available for pre-order on vinyl and CD, as well as on limited-edition colored vinyl and picture disc through the Anjuna Music Store. Pre-order the vinyl, CD, and limited merch bundles here.
New music from the album is already rolling out. The single “Quicksand (Don’t Go)” with Zoë Johnston is now available on Anjunabeats, with the follow-up track “Carry Me Home” with Zoë Johnston arriving this Friday, April 25. [Pre-save here].
