It's hard to believe it's been 32 years since Weezer released their self-titled debut album (known to fans as the Blue album), which brought the world such iconic hits as "Undone — The Sweater Song," "Say It Ain't So" and "Buddy Holly" (all of which had some pretty unforgettable music videos, too, particularly that last track).

Thankfully for fans, the alt-rockers are still going strong; in fact, they just announced a string of tour dates for this fall.

As revealed in an official Instagram post, Weezer will hit the road on their 2026 North American arena tour, Weezer: The Gathering, on Sept. 8 in Sacramento, California. The band will go on to make 32 stops including locations such as Denver, Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Atlanta, Las Vegas and others before wrapping up in Los Angeles on Oct. 24. All dates will feature The Shins and Silversun Pickups as supporting acts.

While the tour is still some months away, fans in the L.A. area can gear up for the shows as part of the "Weezer: The Gathering — Initiation Week," a series of games with the band including trivia, pinball and pickleball taking place at various locations throughout this week.

"Gifts will be given, with additional rewards for the chosen. You must RSVP to be considered. Not all will be called," the post explained.

Weezer has a new single coming out in April

If you can't make the games, take comfort in the fact that a new single, "Shine Again," is scheduled for release on April 1 (and rumor has it a new album announcement might follow). Weezer's last full-length album, Van Weezer, came out in 2021; since then, they also released a series of four EPs inspired by Vivaldi’s Four Seasons and reissued the Blue album in honor of its 30th anniversary.

Artist presale for Weezer: The Gathering starts Tuesday, March 31 at 10 a.m. local time (access for fan club members only); general sales open on Friday, April 3 at 10 a.m. local time on Ticketmaster.
