Schoolboy Q Announces 10-Year Anniversary Tour for Blank Face LP

Schoolboy Q will celebrate the 10th anniversary of his 2016 album Blank Face LP with a 12-city US tour this October, the rapper announced on 3 August 2026 Pitchfork.
Billed as "Schoolboy Q 10 Years of Blank Face LP," the run opens on 1 October at the Tabernacle in Atlanta and wraps on 17 October at Brooklyn Bowl in Las Vegas. In between, the route hits Brooklyn Paramount in New York on 3 October, the Fillmore in Washington, DC on 4 October, House of Blues in Anaheim on 7 October, SOMA in San Diego on 8 October, the Van Buren in Phoenix on 13 October, and the Fox Theater in Oakland on 16 October.
Los Angeles gets two nights — the Palladium on 9 October and the Novo on 12 October — giving Schoolboy Q a hometown double-header in the market where his career took root as a Top Dawg Entertainment signee.
The timing adds a layer of intrigue. The tour announcement lands roughly three weeks after Schoolboy Q teased the follow-up to Blue Lips, his 2024 album Pitchfork. The tease, shared on social media without detail, gave no release date or title, leaving fans to read the two pieces of news together: a backwards-looking anniversary tour alongside a forward-looking album signal.
Blank Face LP arrived in July 2016 as Schoolboy Q's second major-label studio album, following his breakthrough Oxymoron. The record featured contributions from Kanye West, Anderson .Paak, Miguel, and others, and peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, the chart that ranks album consumption in the US.
Public on-sale for all tour dates begins Friday, 7 August 2026, according to Broadway World. Tickets for the Hollywood Palladium show go on sale at 10 AM local time that day, with doors at 8 PM and the show at 9 PM on the night of the performance, as listed on Ticketmaster.
The full itinerary runs as follows:
- 1 October — Tabernacle, Atlanta, GA

- 4 October — The Fillmore, Washington, DC
- 7 October — House of Blues, Anaheim, CA

For fans, the tour offers a chance to hear Blank Face LP in full on the live stage — a record that, a decade on, still represents a major chapter in Schoolboy Q's catalogue and in the broader story of Top Dawg Entertainment's mid-2010s run.
