Queens of the Stone Age Announce Spring 2027 U.S. Tour Ahead of New Album
Queens of the Stone Age have announced a spring 2027 U.S. tour, running from May 1 in San Diego to May 24 in Boston. The dates were confirmed by Billboard on October 22, 2026, one week before the band's ninth studio album, Perfecth, comes out on October 30.
The first ticket window is a presale, which opens on October 28 at 10 a.m. local time. General onsale follows on October 29, also at 10 a.m. local time, so fans should check the time zone of each venue before they log in.
The shows will open with Pixies and Wheelchair Sports Camp, who will support the band on every U.S. date. The tour starts at Viejas Arena in San Diego and finishes at TD Garden in Boston.
The album is a nine-track record on Matador Records, the independent label. Josh Homme and Michael Shuman co-produced it. The band has released three singles from it so far: "Where the Goth Girls At?", "Insignificant Other" and "Easy Street."
The band's plans stretch well beyond the United States. Shows are set for November and December in Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand. In 2027, Queens of the Stone Age will play Estadio Ciudad de Los Deportes in Mexico City on March 6 with Interpol, and they will appear at Lollapalooza festivals in Argentina, Chile and Brazil.
Billboard Boxscore, the trade tally that records concert grosses, lists the band's career touring totals at $42.4 million (US dollars) from 815,000 tickets sold across 201 shows. That figure excludes festival appearances and sets played as an opening act.
For anyone planning to go, the practical steps are simple: decide on a city, check the presale time for your region, and sign up for the band's mailing list if you want the first look at any new dates. Each show also means work for a long list of people, from stagehands and drivers to venue staff, so the tour's arrival in a city has a wider effect than the headline suggests.
