Kesha announces The Freedom Tour 2026: A powerful statement of rebirth and celebration across North America, the UK, and Ireland.
- March 24, 2026
AceShowbiz - Kesha recently concluded the final United Kingdom shows of her cheekily named T-s Out tour, which lasted nearly a year. Despite just finishing that extensive run, she announced her next significant touring venture on the morning of March 23, 2026, titled The Freedom Tour.
The upcoming tour is set to begin on May 23 in Chula Vista, California, at the North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre. From there, it will visit major cities including Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Kansas City, and Toronto. After the North American leg, Kesha will travel overseas for several dates in the U.K. and Ireland before returning to North America for a second wave of concerts that will conclude on August 30 at the Ruoff Music Center in Noblesville, Indiana.
A press release describing the tour highlights that The Freedom Tour is more than a series of concerts; it is a powerful statement. Following years of personal transformation, healing, and artistic rebirth, Kesha is entering a new phase characterized by radical self-expression, spiritual resilience, and rebellious happiness. The tour promises to immerse fans in an electrifying atmosphere where glitter and grit collide, pop anthems meet spiritual awakening, and survival becomes a moment of celebration.
Tickets for the tour, promoted by Live Nation, will initially be available through a Citi presale starting at 10 a.m. local time on Tuesday, March 24, and running until 10 p.m. local time the same day. This will be followed by an artist presale beginning at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, March 25. Additional presales are scheduled throughout the week leading up to the general public on-sale launching at 10 a.m. local time on Friday, March 27. Detailed ticketing information is accessible via the official tour website.
In a statement, Kesha expressed the emotional and thematic core of the tour: "This summer we are reclaiming our bodies, our voices, and our joy. We have survived. Now we get to be free. Let's be free together. I want to know what freedom feels like, with all of you." She continued, "I've lived through the fire. This tour is about what comes after. Freedom isn't just leaving something behind - it's discovering that what you have lived through has made you magnificently who you are."
The Freedom Tour comes on the heels of Kesha's independent release of her album titled Period in the previous year via her own label, Kesha Records. The announcement also confirmed that Kesha plans to release new music later in 2026, continuing her creative resurgence.
Supporting Kesha on the tour will be Chromeo, who will appear at all 25 North American shows. Additionally, Sizzy Rocket, Meek, and Erika Jayne will open on select dates throughout the tour, providing a diverse lineup for attendees.
