Alternative rock icons Weezer have announced a new North American tour for fall 2026 titled “The Gathering.” The arena tour will run for approximately six weeks across the United States and Canada, beginning in early September and concluding in late October.

The tour will support the band’s upcoming 16th studio album, which has yet to receive an official title or release date. As a preview of the project, the band plans to release a new single called “Shine Again” on April 1, marking the beginning of a new musical era for the long-running group.

Joining Weezer on the road will be indie rock acts The Shins and Silversun Pickups, both appearing as special guests throughout the entire tour. The combination of the three bands brings together some of the most recognizable names in alternative rock from the late 1990s through the 2010s.

“The Gathering” tour is scheduled to kick off on September 8 in Sacramento, California, before traveling through major cities across North America. Stops will include Seattle, Chicago, Toronto, Boston, Brooklyn, Atlanta, Houston, Phoenix, and Las Vegas. The final performance of the tour is planned for October 24 in Los Angeles.

Some of the announced tour dates include:

September 8 — Sacramento, California
September 13 — Seattle, Washington
September 22 — Chicago, Illinois
September 25 — Toronto, Ontario
September 27 — Boston, Massachusetts
September 30 — Brooklyn, New York
October 10 — Atlanta, Georgia
October 16 — Houston, Texas
October 20 — Phoenix, Arizona
October 23 — Las Vegas, Nevada
October 24 — Los Angeles, California

Weezer have remained highly active in recent years. The band released the hard-rock-influenced album Van Weezer in 2021 and followed it with the ambitious SZNZ series, a set of four EPs inspired by the seasons and classical composer Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons. The group also celebrated the 30th anniversary of their self-titled debut—commonly known as the Blue Album—with special releases and extensive touring.

Live performances from Weezer typically combine new material with fan-favorite hits spanning their three-decade career. Songs such as “Buddy Holly,” “Say It Ain’t So,” and “Island in the Sun” remain staples of their concert setlists, often performed alongside newer tracks.

Tickets for “The Gathering” tour are expected to go on sale to the general public on April 3, with several presales scheduled to take place beforehand.
