Is Helmet Touring in 2027? Tour Rumors & News

Is Helmet touring in 2027?

As of November 11, 2026, no tour dates for Helmet are announced. Their last show was in October 2026. There are no credible signs of a tour right now.

Helmet wrapped a three-show headline run from August 17 to August 27, 2026, after a summer North American tour alongside Down was announced in May. They played Aftershock in Sacramento on October 4, 2026. Next up are festival appearances rather than a tour of their own: Welcome to Rockville in Daytona Beach on May 9, 2027 and Sonic Temple Art + Music Festival in Columbus on May 16, 2027. A new headline run would be the signal of a fuller return to the road.
