Just when you thought the Foo Fighters had already conquered every corner of the globe, they’ve gone and done this.Today, the band officially pulled the curtain back on The Sweat, Smiles & Broken Strings Tour 2026, a massive world tour that promises loud guitars, cathartic sing-alongs, and the kind of sweaty, smiling chaos only Foo Fighters can deliver. But it’s not just the tour name that has fans buzzing — it’s where they’re going.Spoiler: this isn’t your typical “same ten cities, different year” situation.A Tour Built for the DiehardsAccording to the announcement, this tour is all about intimacy, energy, and connection. Expect stripped-down moments colliding with face-melting anthems, deep cuts sharing space with stadium-shaking classics, and sets that feel raw, emotional, and loud in all the right ways.Dave Grohl summed it up best: this tour is about “the joy, the mess, the noise, and the strings that don’t always survive the night.” Honestly? We’re in.The Cities No One Saw ComingYes, there are a few familiar stops — but the real shock comes from the unexpected cities peppered throughout the tour. Foo Fighters are making a clear statement in 2026: no place is too far, too small, or too unconventional for rock and roll.Here are just some of the cities raising eyebrows (and heart rates):Reykjavík, IcelandTbilisi, GeorgiaMedellín, ColombiaOsaka, JapanGlasgow, ScotlandCape Town, South AfricaLima, PeruKraków, PolandAuckland, New ZealandNew Orleans, USAThat’s right — this tour stretches across continents, cultures, and corners of the world that rarely see a Foo Fighters-level production roll through.What Fans Can ExpectIf past tours are any indication, expect:Three-hour marathon setsZero ego, all heart performancesSongs that hit harder live than you ever thought possibleA crowd that feels more like a community than an audienceThis isn’t just a tour — it’s a celebration of endurance, music, and the joy of still doing this decades in.Final WordThe Sweat, Smiles & Broken Strings Tour 2026 is shaping up to be one of the most ambitious chapters in Foo Fighters history. New cities, renewed energy, and a band that refuses to slow down.Tickets will sell fast. Voices will be lost. Strings will be broken.And if this tour is coming anywhere near you — consider yourself lucky.Stay locked to It’s Officials for dates, ticket info, and all things Foo Fighters.
