Don Toliver Returns With 2026 OCTANE Arena Tour, Featuring Sahbabii, Sofaygo & CHASE B

Published

on

Don Toliver 2026

Grammy-nominated rapper and songwriter Don Toliver announces his 2026 OCTANE Tour, a massive arena run in support of his acclaimed fifth studio album, OCTANE, debuting No. 1 on Spotify and Apple Music globally, out now via Cactus Jack/Donnway & Co/Atlantic Records. Produced by Live Nation, the 30-city North American tour with two headline festival appearances officially kicks off Friday, May 8 with a headline performance at Rolling Loud Orlando, followed by stops in major markets including Los Angeles, New York, Atlanta, Houston, Chicago and Toronto. The run also includes a headline appearance at Milwaukee Summerfest, before wrapping July 5 at Ball Arena in Denver. The tour features special guests SahBabii, SoFaygo and CHASE B.

TICKETS:
Tickets will be available starting with the Citi presale beginning Wednesday, February 4. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning Friday, February 6 at 10am local time at LiveNation.com.

PRESALE:
Citi is the official card of the OCTANE Tour. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Wednesday, February 4 at 10am local time through Thursday, February 5 at 11:59pm local time via the Citi Entertainment program. For complete presale details, visit citientertainment.com.

VIP:
The tour will also offer a range of VIP packages and premium experiences, featuring prime seating, early entry, and access to an immersive pre-show VIP lounge. Select packages include exclusive entry to Don Toliver’s personal garage, inviting fans inside his creative world and offering a closer look at the inspiration, aesthetics, and energy that shapes OCTANE. Guests will also receive specially designed VIP merchandise and additional on-site perks. For more information, visit vipnation.com.

OCTANE is an immersive, cinematic body of work rooted in Don Toliver’s signature melodic, experimental trap-R&B culminating into big moments on tracks like”Body” which has already reached Spotify and Apple Music’s Top 5. Executive-produced by Toliver, with production from longtime collaborator Derek “206DEREK” Anderson, the album captures his creative energy in real time and marks a personal milestone, with Toliver producing three tracks himself: “ATM,” “Rendezvous,” and “Call Back.”

Alongside the tour announcement, Toliver continues to expand the world of OCTANE with the release of the official music video for “Rendezvous” featuring Yeat. Directed by ADM and produced by Cole Bennett, the video underscores the album’s momentum, spotlighting Toliver and Yeat’s chemistry through themes of speed, late-night escapism, and a diamond-driven motif.

The OCTANE visual rollout also includes the “Excavator” music video, directed by Shadrinsky and filmed at the historic Mount Wilson Observatory, as well as Live From OCTANE Mountain, a multi-hour live-streamed listening experience filmed at Mount Wilson that aired January 29, following an earlier in-person event at the Porsche Experience Center Los Angeles.

Recorded across Toliver’s European tour and sessions in Carmel-by-the-Sea, Los Angeles, and Mount Wilson, OCTANE draws inspiration from his lifelong love of cars and rally racing culture, with themes of motion, independence, and velocity driving both the album and its visuals.

The release builds on a historic run for Toliver, who has delivered certified platinum singles “No Pole” and “Private Landing” featuring Justin Bieber, along with multi-platinum hits including “No Idea,” “After Party,” “Lemonade,” and “Bandit.” His previous album, HARDSTONE PSYCHO (2024), earned his first No. 1 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.

With OCTANE and its upcoming arena tour, Don Toliver continues to cement his place as one of modern Hip-Hop and R&B’s most forward-thinking artists.
