King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard's World Tour 2024 is an ongoing concert tour of South America, Europe and North America. It began on 14 March 2024, in Santiago, Chile at Teatro Coliseo and will conclude on 21 November 2024 at Factory Town in Miami, Florida.
The tour was announced on 7 November 2023, with the marathon sets at Forest Hills Stadium, Huntington Bank Pavilion, The Gorge Amphitheatre and Germania Insurance Amphitheater being announced in advance in September of that year.[1]
History
[edit]The tour encompasses a vast array of venues, some being large arenas such as the Kia Forum and the Pacific Coliseum. Frontman Stu Mackenzie has said about the band's increase in popularity:
From where I'm sitting, honestly, it all feels very abstract. It's insanely flattering and humbling and just freaky, but it sometimes feels like it's happening to someone else and I'm just acting this part. Really, I'm extremely grateful, because we get energy from the whole thing. It's like a beautiful spiral of positivity. As long as people are willing to come watch us play, I'm pretty sure we're going to just keep playing.[2]
