President Just Announced Their First Ever North American Headline Tour

President are done playing the support role. The masked mystery band that took over everyone's algorithm in 2025 just announced their first-ever North American headline tour, and the routing is stacked. Twenty-five dates from coast to coast, kicking off September 4 in Nashville and wrapping October 14 in Dallas.

The run is being called the North American Campaign 2026, and honestly, that name fits. This band went from anonymous unknowns to selling out rooms on Architects and Bad Omens tours in about a year. Now they're headlining venues like the Riviera Theatre in Chicago, Brooklyn Paramount in New York, and The Wiltern in Los Angeles. That's a serious jump.

Cenobia and Showing Teeth will be providing support on select dates. Solid picks for a bill like this.

The Fastest Rise in Recent Memory

I'll be real, the speed of President's rise has been wild to watch. An anonymous English alternative metal band that blends metalcore with electronica, they dropped the King of Terrors EP in September 2025 and it exceeded 50 million streams on Spotify within six months. That's not normal. The lineup of The President on vocals, Heist on guitar, Protest on bass, and Vice on drums clearly struck a nerve with people.

They've spent 2026 keeping the momentum going with two new singles. "Angel Wings" came out in February, and "Mercy" just dropped last week. There's also a debut full-length album in the works, though no release date has been announced yet. If these singles are any indication of where the record is headed, it's going to be worth the wait.

How to Get Tickets

There's an artist and Citi presale happening Thursday, April 2 at 10AM local time for select venues. Citi cardmembers can access presale tickets through the Citi Entertainment program from 10AM to 10PM local time that same day. General on-sale kicks off Friday, April 3 at 10AM local time via Ticketmaster.

Honestly, if you've been paying attention to what President have been doing on these support tours, you already know these rooms are going to be packed. This is a band that went from zero to headlining The Wiltern and Brooklyn Paramount in about a year. The mystique is real, the music backs it up, and the live show is only getting bigger. Don't sleep on this one. Get your tickets the second they go on sale.
