The announcement comes just days after Gorillaz dropped their ninth studio album, The Mountain, on Feb. 27.

The group is bringing 22 arena dates across the U.S. and Canada beginning Sept. 17 in Orlando, Florida, and wrapping up in Seattle on Halloween 2026.

What they're saying:

The band’s live production reflects more than 25 years of genre-defying innovation. Created by Albarn and Jamie Hewlett, the virtual group — featuring 2D, Murdoc Niccals, Noodle and Russel Hobbs — has built a catalog that includes hits such as "Feel Good Inc.," "Clint Eastwood," "On Melancholy Hill," "DARE," and many others.

Gorillaz have achieved many awards, including the Jim Henson Creativity Honor, and were recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the planet’s "Most Successful Virtual Act."
