The Strokes Go Global On ‘Reality Awaits’ Run

The Strokes have a full festival schedule in 2026 and have also announced a headline run through North America and Europe starting later this year.

The Live Nation-produced “Reality Awaits: The World” kicks off June 15 at Pine Knob Music Theatre in Clarkson, Michigan. The 30-date run through amphitheaters and arenas wraps its initial North American leg with a double at Red Rocks June 22 and 23. After a performance at Outside Lands, the band plays Summer Sonic in Japan before returning stateside for a leg that runs August 25 through Sept. 17. After spots at Shaky Knees and Sea.Hear.Now, The Strokes wrap the tour with 10 shows in Europe.

Presales begin April 15 with general on-sale April 17.

The Strokes are repped by IAG in North America and WME elsewhere.

The beloved band has played precious few headline shows in recent years, spending their time largely at festivals; they also had a lengthy stint opening for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. A Sept. 27, 2025, show at The Chelsea in Las Vegas grossed $320,413 on 2,921 tickets.
