Arcade Fire Unveils ‘Pink Elephant’ with Intimate Venue Tour Ahead of Album Release
Arcade Fire is set to release their seventh studio album, Pink Elephant, on May 9, 2025. In anticipation, the band has announced a series of intimate performances in smaller venues across North America, offering fans a unique preview of the new material.
The tour commences on April 22–23 in Mexico City and concludes on May 5 in Philadelphia, just days before the album’s official release. Notably, the band will perform at Montreal’s L’Olympia on April 29–30 and Toronto’s Massey Hall on May 1, venues significantly smaller than those on their previous tours. This approach reflects a more personal engagement with audiences during this phase of their career. \
Pink Elephant features ten tracks, including the lead single “Year of the Snake,” which showcases Régine Chassagne on bass and Win Butler on drums. The album, described as “cinematic mystical punk,” was produced by Butler, Chassagne, and Daniel Lanois at the band’s Good News Recording Studio in New Orleans.
Fans can access exclusive content and updates through the band’s “Circle of Trust” app, which offers news, music, videos, early ticket access, and more.
