GORILLAZ North American Tour Fall 2026
Following months of speculation and anticipation — as well as a pair of L.A. shows playing new album The Mountain in its entirety and the US opening of their House of Kong exhibition — Gorillaz have confirmed details of their first extensive North American tour since 2022. Produced by Live Nation, the tour will see the world’s most successful virtual act once again brought to life on these shores by Gorillaz co-creators Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett, with Albarn joined onstage by the Gorillaz live band and some very special guest performers. The newly announced series of 22 sure-to-be-unforgettable arena dates across the U.S. and Canada (plus a headline appearance at the Shaky Knees festival) begins September 17 in Orlando, FL and wraps up with a Halloween night finale in Seattle, WA. Little Simz will join Gorillaz on the majority of the dates, with Deltron 3030 appearing on all shows.
The Gorillaz live experience hailed by ROLLING STONE as “an overwhelming pop spectacle, with Damon Albarn’s steady presence to keep the audience focused” draws on a quarter century of genre-bending, paradigm-shifting, consistently innovative musical brilliance. Since their creation at the hands of Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett, singer 2D, bassist Murdoc Niccals, guitarist Noodle and drummer Russel Hobbs have amassed an unparalleled arsenal of classic tunes including “Feel Good Inc.,” “Clint Eastwood,” “On Melancholy Hill,” “DARE,” “Dirty Harry,” “Stylo,” “Kids with Guns,” “Tomorrow Comes Today,” “Rhinestone Eyes” and literally dozens more. The BRIT and GRAMMY Award winning band’s latest album The Mountain was released February 27 on their own new independent KONG label, preceded by joyously received singles “The Happy Dictator (featuring Sparks),” “The Manifesto (featuring Trueno and Proof),” “The God of Lying (featuring IDLES),” “Damascus (featuring Omar Souleyman and Yasiin Bey)” and “Orange County (featuring Bizarrap, Kara Jackson & Anoushka Shankar)”/ “The Hardest Thing (featuring Tony Allen).” The Mountain is the latest instalment in the towering Gorillaz discography that includes Gorillaz (2001), Demon Days (2005), Plastic Beach (2010), The Fall (2011), Humanz (2017), The Now Now (2018), Song Machine – Season One: Strange Timez(2020), and Cracker Island (2023).
A truly global phenomenon, Gorillaz have achieved success in entirely groundbreaking and unique ways, touring the world from San Diego to Syria, Montevideo to Manchester and winning numerous awards including the coveted Jim Henson Creativity Honor. The band is recognized by The Guinness Book Of World Records as the planet’s Most Successful Virtual Act.
Tickets will first be available via a KONG Card presale beginning Wednesday, March 4 at 10am local time, followed by a Citi presale at 12pm local time (details below). To participate in the Gorillaz Artist Presale on Friday, March 6 at 10am local, you must sign up at https://livemu.sc/gorillaz by Thursday, March 5 at 10am ET.
