Vampire Weekend Announce 2020 Father of the Bride Tour Dates

Vampire Weekend are extending their Father of the Bride tour well into the new year!

The band has been touring extensively in support of their new album, Father of the Bride, which dropped in May. They've been highlighting songs off the new record like "This Life," "Harmony Hall," "Sunflower" and "Bambina," as well as classics "A-Punk," "Unbelievers," "Hannah Hunt" and "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa."

Between the end of May and October 2020, the band will visit cities throughout the US and Canada like Pittsburgh, Boise, Detroit, Kansas City, New Orleans and more, kicking off May 29 in Westbrook, Maine and wrapping up October 7 in Birmingham, Alabama. Christone "Kingfish" Ingram, Soccer Mommy and Tinariwen will provide support on select dates (see itinerary below).

But we're getting ahead of ourselves– you still have plenty of opportunities to catch Vampire Weekend live in 2019!

On Friday night (September 6), the band took the stage at Madison Square Garden in New York for the first time. They welcomed special guests Steve Lacy and Angélique Kidjo, who joined them on stage for renditions of "Sunflower" and "Jerusalem, New York, Berlin," respectively. They also live-streamed their full performance for those of us suffering from FOTB FOMO!
