Father John Misty Announces New, International Headlining and Festival Tour Dates For Spring And Summer 2026 Ahead Of Mahashmashana’s One-Year Anniversary This Week
Father John Misty is announcing new international headlining and festival tour dates for Spring and early Summer 2026 in support of his critically acclaimed album, Mahashmashama, which celebrates its one-year anniversary this week. The Western US dates kick off Monday, March 23rd in Ventura, CA at the Majestic Ventura Theater and run through Sunday, May 17th in Pomona, CA at The Fox Theater. Along this run, Father John Misty has scheduled two-night stands at the historic The Castro Theatre in San Francisco (March 24th+25th), and at The Paramount Theatre (Apr. 3rd +4th). He will also headline at Boise’s Treefort Festival (Mar. 29th).
Father John Misty’s EU run will start on Monday, June 1st in Lisbon, PT at Sagres Campo Pequeno and end on Sunday, June 14th in Wicklow, IE with a headlining set at Beyond The Pale Festival. Highlights for this run include appearances at Primavera Festival in Barcelona, ES (Jun. 4th), and Northside Festival in Aarhus, DK (Jun. 6th) and Father John Misty’s first headlining shows in Portugal in eight years.
Variety says of his July 2025 headlining performance at The Greek Theatre, “He’s one of contemporary music’s greatest lyricists and one of our loveliest melodists (a good combo, when you can find it, by the way), so there’s usually some kind of euphoric effect even in distemper or dystopia. His wish is our command when it comes to actually enjoying stuff that sounds more challenging on paper, or even on vinyl, than it does in the flesh.”
Fan presales for the headlining shows begin Wednesday, November 19th at 10 am (local; Pass: Honeybear), with on-sale to the general public on Friday, November 21 at 10am (local).
In further celebration of Father John Misty’s first headlining shows at The Paramount Theatre in almost 9 years, Seattle fans can grab fee-free presale tickets which will be available IN PERSON at the Paramount Box Office starting at 10 am on Thursday, November 20th. Head down for coffee & donuts provided by Sub Pop, limited edition posters, Sub Pop sticker packs, and more (Sub Pop merchandise available while supplies last!)
