Jack Harlow Is Taking His New Album on the Road for “The Monica Tour”

Summary

• Jack Harlow has officially announced his 2026 North American tour in support of his brand-new, highly debated R&B album, Monica.
• The 17-date trek kicks off on August 4 in Brooklyn, New York, and wraps up on September 21 in Oakland, California.
• Presale tickets are available starting March 26, with the general public on-sale beginning March 27

Whether you’re vibing with his new sonic direction or missing his braggadocious rap era, Jack Harlow is officially hitting the road. Following the release of his surprise R&B-leaning fourth studio album, Monica, the Louisville native has announced a brand-new North American tour for the summer of 2026. Promoted by Live Nation, the 17-date run will see the chart-topping artist step away from the massive arenas of his past and downshift into mid-size theaters to match the intimate energy of his new project.

Released earlier this month on his 28th birthday, Monica marks a massive and somewhat polarizing departure for Harlow. Written over the past year at New York’s legendary Electric Lady Studios, the project sees him trading in traditional hip-hop for sultry neo-soul and melodic R&B. While the drastic genre switch has sparked intense debate online and drawn highly mixed reviews from critics, Harlow is fully committing to the new aesthetic, translating the album’s moody grooves into a tailored live experience.

Because the new music demands a softer, closer atmosphere, “The Monica Tour” bypasses stadium seating in favor of venues like the Brooklyn Paramount, The Salt Shed in Chicago, and the Hollywood Palladium. The tour officially kicks off on August 4 on the East Coast before snaking its way across the continent—including a highly anticipated hometown stop in Louisville on August 29—and concluding at The Fox Theater in Oakland, California, on September 21.

Fans looking to secure their spot can take advantage of the artist and Citi cardmember presales, which officially begin on Thursday, March 26 at 10:00 AM local time online. Additional presales will run throughout the week, leading up to the general public on-sale on Friday, March 27 at 10:00 AM local time. For those looking to upgrade their evening, VIP packages offering priority floor access, early entry, and exclusive merch will also be available via VIP Nation.
