AFI Just Announced a 2026 North American Tour

AFI has just announced a slate of North American tour dates for fall 2026.

The venerable post-hardcore/goth rock band, led by shapeshifting frontman Davey Havok (check out his new look below! Awesome), will embark on a 12-date run that begins October 10 in Sayerville, New Jersey. Choir Boy will be in the support slot for the outing, which kicks off after festival dates in Mexico City and Sacramento.

Stops include Baltimore, Maryland; Columbus, Ohio; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Toronto, Ontario; St. Louis, Missouri; Tulsa, Oklahoma; and more. The tour also includes a festival stop at Sick New World in Ft. Worth, Texas. The final tour date will be in Tucson, Arizona at the Rialto Theatre on October 28.

The tour comes in support of 2025’s Silver Bleeds the Black Sun. A UK and European run precedes the newly-announced North American leg. View all AFI tour dates and find out how to get tickets below.
