British rapper and acclaimed storyteller Dave has officially announced a major world tour for 2026, titled The Boy Who Played the Harp Tour.
The arena run will span Europe, the UK and Ireland, North America, and Australia, marking his first full headline tour in several years.
The tour is in support of Dave’s third studio album, The Boy Who Played the Harp, which was released on October 24, 2025. The project arrived to widespread praise and further cemented his status as one of the most important voices in modern British music. It also follows the success of his 2021 album, We’re All Alone in This Together, which achieved platinum certification and produced some of the biggest moments of his career.
The tour will begin in Europe in early February 2026, with performances scheduled in major cities including Munich, Paris, and Amsterdam. From there, Dave will return to the UK and Ireland for a high-profile run of shows starting in Dublin before moving through Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester, and London. The London leg will see him take over The O2 Arena for four consecutive nights, underlining the scale of demand for his live performances.
Later in March and April, the tour will head to North America, with shows planned in cities such as Seattle, Los Angeles, and Toronto. The final leg will take place in Australia in June 2026, with arena dates confirmed in Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne.
The Boy Who Played the Harp has already made history since its release. The album debuted at Number One on the Official Albums Chart, making Dave the first British rap artist to achieve three Number One album debuts. Running just under 48 minutes, the project has been praised for its emotional depth, sharp social commentary, and refined production. The title track, which shares the album’s name, has also drawn attention from fans and critics alike.
Tickets for the 2026 tour are currently on sale through major ticketing platforms, with several dates, particularly in the UK, selling out shortly after release. With the scale of the tour and the success of the album, The Boy Who Played the Harp Tour is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated live music events of 2026.
