Noah Kahan is doing what he can to bridge the great divide between North American cities by embarking on a stadium tour of the continent this summer, as announced Monday (Feb. 2).

Sharing the dates on Instagram, the folk hitmaker revealed that — joined by supporting act Gigi Perez — the trek will kick off June 11 at the Kia Center in Orlando, Fla., and will span 23 shows, ending Aug. 30 in Seattle at T-Mobile Park. The tour will come to Toronto's Rogers Stadium on Jun. 28 and Vancouver's BC Place on Aug. 28.


“I’m hitting the road this summer,” he wrote in the caption. “Can’t wait to bring The Great Divide Tour to stadiums across North America! I’m also excited to have my friend @gigi4perez join me.”

“I’m so grateful to continue the mission of @thebusyheadproject with this tour,” Kahan added, shouting out his Busyhead mental health initiative. “I can’t wait to see all your beautiful faces.”

The tour announcement is just the latest piece of Kahan news in the past week. On Jan. 28, he announced that his next album, The Great Divide, will drop April 24, four years after he last released an LP. His 2022 full-length, Stick Season, brought the singer-songwriter’s career to the next level, steadily climbing the Billboard 200 before peaking at No. 2 in 2024, spawning Billboard Hot 100 hits such as “Stick Season” and “Dial Drunk” in the process.

Fans have already heard the new album’s lead single, with title track “The Great Divide” dropping Jan. 30. During the Sunday (Feb. 1) Grammys broadcast, Mastercard premiered the song’s meaningful music video while the ceremony was on commercial break.

And on top of all that, two days prior to the tour news, it was announced that a still-untitled documentary chronicling Kahan’s life over the past few years had found a home at Netflix. “When we started filming, I had no idea what we’d capture, only that Noah was determined to be honest about everything, especially the messy bits,” director Nick Sweeney said in a statement on the project, which does not yet have a release date. “He was in a strange in-between moment, caught in the collision between almost surreal fame and a quieter inner world he’d tried to keep offstage.”

Calgary Stampede Sees 30% Uptick In Noise Complaints In 2026

As of Thursday morning (July 9), the Calgary city has logged 186 noise complaints coming from outdoor music tents and events. The Cowboys Music Festival has reached the same number of complaints as it did during the entire festival last year, with three days left to go.

The Calgary Stampede continues to buzz throughout the city, and so does the ongoing controversy around noise curfews.

The famed rodeo, exhibition and outdoor festival is receiving a higher number of noise compared to last year, with the city logging 186 noise complaints related to its outdoor music tents and events as of Thursday morning (July 9), a 30% increase according to Livewire Calgary. The complaints follow a period of controversy following noise reduction bylaws and curfews that were imposed on the Stampede's outdoor music tents and other festivals in Calgary, just weeks before they were scheduled to begin.
