Mumford & Sons is gearing up to release the band’s first album in seven years — and now, the group is also planning to bring Rushmere on the road.

On Thursday (Feb. 6), the group comprised of Marcus Mumford, Ben Lovett and Ted Dwane announced a small run of tour dates supporting their upcoming LP. Visiting club venues in Europe, Australia and North America, the folk-rock band will kick off the trek March 5 in the Netherlands and close out March 26 in Brooklyn, N.Y.


The shows include a date at legendary Toronto venue Massey Hall on March 23.

“we’re so excited to announce a run of intimate shows in march, which will be our first shows of 2025,” the band wrote on Instagram, directing followers to Mumford & Sons’ online community, Agora, for tickets.

On Agora, fans can register for a priority-access pre-sale happening Feb. 13. The next day, a general on-sale will take place — but the band warns that it’ll feature “a very limited number of remaining tickets.”

Proceeds from ticket sales — $1 from each seat sold, to be exact — will benefit War Child. The organization aims to protect and support children affected by conflicts in war-torn areas and is currently working to assist kids in Gaza.

The announcement comes nearly two months ahead of Rushmere, the British group’s first full LP since 2018’s Delta, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Mumford & Sons first announced the new album in January, writing on Instagram, “we’re excited about this one.”

A couple days later, the group unveiled Rushmere’s title track and lead single, reaching No. 30 on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart.

Canadian artists have moved into 2026 with some big releases on the horizon.
