Weezer - The Gathering 2026-2027 world tour and Gold Album

Weezer return to major arenas with their new tour Weezer: The Gathering, tied to their self-titled Gold Album released in August 2026. According to a Live Nation-promoted announcement and multiple listings, the 32-date North American run starts on September 8, 2026 in Sacramento and wraps on October 24, 2026 in Los Angeles.

The Gathering arena run in North America

The core of Weezer: The Gathering is a fall 2026 arena tour across the United States and Canada, with support from The Shins and Silversun Pickups on all North American dates. A detailed tour announcement notes that the run begins on September 8, 2026 at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento and continues through major cities including San Francisco, Portland, Vancouver, Seattle, Denver, Chicago, Toronto, Boston, Philadelphia, New York, Washington, D.C., Charlotte, Nashville, Orlando, Houston, Austin, Phoenix and more before ending on October 24, 2026 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. A July 19, 2026 tour report describes the itinerary and confirms the support acts.

Ticketing information emphasizes that these shows are full-scale arena productions in markets where Weezer have long histories. Venue-level announcements, such as the listing from Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia for the September 29, 2026 show, underline the scale of the production and the partnership with Live Nation as promoter. The Philadelphia arena announcement highlights the tour as a major fall event for the venue.

International legs in Japan and Europe

Beyond North America, Weezer extend The Gathering into 2027 with shows in Japan and Europe. A detailed touring article lists February 2027 dates in Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and Nagoya, followed by a May and June 2027 European leg that includes Dublin, Newcastle, Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow, Birmingham, London, Cardiff, Paris, Amsterdam, Oslo, Stockholm and Helsinki. The Pollstar coverage stresses that this extension turns the tour into a full world itinerary stretching into mid-2027.

An additional UK-focused piece breaks out the specific 2027 dates for Ireland and Britain, noting stops at Dublin’s 3Arena, Newcastle’s Utilita Arena, Manchester’s Co-Op Live, Leeds’ First Direct Arena, Glasgow’s OVO Hydro, Birmingham’s Utilita Arena, London’s Alexandra Palace and Cardiff’s Utilita Arena. This Radio X report positions the UK and Ireland shows as key highlights of the 2027 run, framing them as part of a broader European sweep that also reaches mainland cities such as Paris and Amsterdam.

How the Gold Album fits their catalog

Musically, Weezer’s 2026 self-titled release, widely referred to as the Gold Album, continues the band’s tradition of color-themed self-titled records. A feature on the new album notes that it is the group’s twentieth studio LP and that it arrived on August 21, 2026 via Reprise Records and Warner Records, aligning the release directly with the tour cycle. The same report emphasizes that the band balance power-pop hooks, crunchy guitars and melodic choruses that recall their mid-1990s work.

In the UK, the Official Charts Company registers Weezer (Gold Album) with a peak position of 19 on the Official Albums Chart, with that peak week dated August 30, 2026. That gives the record a higher UK peak than some of their recent releases and situates it among their better-performing later-period albums, without matching the top 10 heights of earlier sets like Make Believe. This comparison underscores how the new album extends their chart presence more than three decades after their debut.

Where the band stands now

Weezer’s next officially confirmed live date is September 8, 2026 at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento as the opening night of The Gathering arena tour.
