Atmosphere Announces 2026 Winter Carnival Tour

Hip-hop duo Atmosphere announced The Winter Carnival Tour 2026, featuring Sage Francis, R.A. the Rugged Man, with a special performance by Kool Keith and a premier DJ set by Mr. Dibbs. The 27-date tour kicks off January 15 in Nashville at Brooklyn Bowl and wraps February 21 in Albuquerque at Revel.

The tour, supporting Atmosphere’s 2025 LP Jestures, includes stops in major markets including Brooklyn, Chicago, Minneapolis, Austin, Los Angeles and Seattle. Notable venues on the itinerary include Brooklyn Steel, First Avenue in Minneapolis, ACL Live at The Moody Theater in Austin and Fox Theater in Oakland.

“When we first decided to pull this tour together, we wanted to stack the line-up to feel reminiscent of the ‘Atmosphere & Friends’ stage that we curated at the legendary Soundset festival,” Atmosphere’s Slug stated. “I consider all of these featured artists to be friends of mine. Sage Francis and Mr. Dibbs have toured with me numerous times over the last 25 years, and they always bring the fun/pain. This is my first time traveling with R.A. The Rugged Man and Kool Keith, but anyone familiar with them knows how much party they make. Regardless of where you position yourself on the spectrum of underground & independent hip-hop, The Winter Carnival Tour promises to be a good time for everybody. Coming to a Winter landscape near you.”

Tickets go on sale Friday, October 24 at 10 a.m. local time.
