U2 will open its 2027 world tour, Carnaval de Luz Presents: The Greatest Show on Earth, on Tuesday, Feb. 23, 2027 in Mexico City, according to reports of the band’s October 2026 announcement. Beck opens the Latin American shows.
The first leg runs through Mexico City, São Paulo and Buenos Aires in February and March. Mexico City has since grown to four nights, with Feb. 28 and March 2 added after the first two shows.
A European stadium leg with Wolf Alice follows from April to July. Reports say the tour will run into 2028 and finish in Ireland, though U2 hasn’t confirmed those shows.
