BABYMETAL are preparing to hit the road for their 2026 North American tour, with the extensive run set to get underway later this month.
The Japanese metal group will begin their upcoming dates on August 30 in San Diego, CA, supporting My Chemical Romance at Petco Park. From there, BABYMETAL will launch their headlining run on September 2 at Ball Arena in Denver, CO, with Halestorm and Violent Vira providing support.
The trek will make stops in Chicago, Toronto, Holmdel, Mansfield, Raleigh, Dallas, Austin, Phoenix and more before wrapping up with an appearance at Aftershock in Sacramento, CA on October 3.
BABYMETAL will also appear at Louder Than Life in Louisville, KY on September 19.
Following the North American run, the band will head to Latin America beginning November 28 in São Paulo, Brazil. Shows in Argentina, Chile and Peru will follow before the tour concludes December 12 in Mexico City.
The upcoming dates continue a busy year for BABYMETAL, who released Metal Forth (Deluxe Edition) in June via Capitol Records. The expanded release features remixes of “from me to u” by Major Lazer and Jordan Fish, along with live versions of “from me to u,” “My Queen” and “Algorism.”
The original Metal Forth arrived in 2025 and became BABYMETAL’s first Top 10 album on the Billboard 200, reaching No. 9. The album features collaborations with Poppy, Electric Callboy, Slaughter to Prevail, Bloodywood, Polyphia, Spiritbox and Tom Morello.
