The first co-headlining tour from the National and the War on Drugs is heading to North America. The two bands will head out on the road for the 2024 Zen Diagram tour starting in September.

The bands will be joined by Lucius, who will open as a special guest on all dates except for the closing show in Mexico City. General sale will begin on Friday, March 1, at 10 a.m. local time.

The War on Drugs released their latest album, I Don’t Live Here Anymore, in 2021. That November, the band performed the record’s title track on Jimmy Kimmel Live with Lucius. The National shared their most recent full-length less than a year ago, with Laugh Track arriving in September 2023.

“We’re thrilled to join forces for the Zen Diagram Tour this fall,” the National wrote on Instagram. In the comment section, fans reacted with delight, disbelief, and deep concern for what this particular pairing of artists will do to men in their early 40s.
