Following the European leg, the tour expands into North America, stopping in New York, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Toronto, and Mexico City. These shows are expected to be some of the largest of the tour, with stadium crowds and extended performances that showcase U2’s ability to turn intimate emotion into arena-sized moments. Each city is promised a unique visual sequence tied to the tour’s central theme.
The global reach continues through South America and Asia, with confirmed cities including São Paulo, Buenos Aires, Santiago, Tokyo, Seoul, and Sydney. This leg underscores U2’s commitment to maintaining a truly worldwide presence, bringing their message of connection and resilience to fans across continents. The production is rumored to evolve as the tour moves, adapting visuals and set arrangements to reflect each region’s energy.
