From there, the route continues through the U.S. East Coast and Midwest. Confirmed stops include Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., Madison Square Garden in New York on September 29, and United Center in Chicago on October 8, underlining the band’s arena-level status across multiple regions. Canadian dates at Bell Centre in Montreal and Scotiabank Arena in Toronto are also part of the leg, giving audiences there a chance to see the new material live.

Shaky Knees and the Halloween finale

Shaky Knees Festival in Atlanta provides one of the most notable appearances on the North American leg, positioning Gorillaz within a multi-artist lineup while they present songs from The Mountain to a broad festival crowd. The group’s slot at Piedmont Park on September 20, 2026 also serves as an anchor point between the early Florida dates and the run through the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern arenas.

Before that finale, Gorillaz are scheduled at Kia Forum in Inglewood on October 24, followed by Pechanga Arena in San Diego and Oakland Arena. The combination of a major Los Angeles arena date and the Seattle closing night signals that the band is treating this leg as a high-profile extension of their 2026 touring year.

The musical core of The Mountain

The Mountain marks the ninth studio album from the British virtual band, extending their mix of alternative rock, pop and electronic elements with a concept that plays with mortality and optimism. The record is released on their own label Kong, distributed via The Orchard, and has been framed by its creators as a work aiming to leave listeners with a reflective yet hopeful feeling about life and death.
