WEEZER OUT AUGUST 21, 2026
Weezer announces new international tour dates for their upcoming Weezer: The
Gathering tour, celebrating their new album Weezer – out August 21, 2026 via Reprise/Warner Records. Rolling Stone called the forthcoming project, “one of the best Weezer albums of this century.” Kicking off in February 2027, these new dates include stops in Japan, Europe, and the UK, with Taking Back Sunday as an opening act. This announcement comes as the band is preparing to embark on their massive 32-date North American arena tour this fall, where they will be joined by The Shins and Silversun Pickups as support.

Alongside the announcement, Weezer also shares the latest offering from their upcoming record, “C.E.O.” Joining stellar lead singles “Shine Again” and “We Might as Well be Strangers (feat.

It features a who’s who of talent including Tony Hawk, Curry Barker, Dax Flame, Chit (aka Jay Renshaw), Rob
Riggle, Rob Huebel, Michael Peña, Giovanni Ribisi and Christopher Mintz-Plasse.
PRE-SAVE WEEZER NOW
After sharing Blue, Green, Red, White, Teal, and Black albums, Weezer returns with a new color in their arsenal for Weezer – their 20th album over their monumental, decades-long run. Created with Klas Ahlund and Kenneth Blume (FKA Kenny Beats), Weezer is a tightly-wound, ready-to-spring record with songs written by three of the band’s four members, marking the first time Weezer frontman/guitarist Rivers Cuomo and drummer Pat Wilson had written the basics of a song together since their first album.
Weezer plays to Weezer’s eternal strengths and feels like one of those “imagined greatest hits” of entirely new material. It’s a direct, raw iteration of the band – an album as urgent and vital as anything else in their catalog three decades in. Weezer features tongue-in-cheek meta songs about aging as a band, weighing your legacy, still carrying on, with other songs celebrating where they are now: as one of the most influential artists in the world for anyone, any age, picking up a guitar, a bass, or a pair of drumsticks. Fans can presave Weezer now and an exclusive signed vinyl is available for preorder on the band’s webstore HERE.
