The Take Cover Tour is a concert tour by the American rock band Foo Fighters. The tour was announced on October 23, 2025, with only North America tour dates at first. More tour dates in Europe, Oceania and South America were announced later.

The tour started on January 10, 2026, in León, Mexico and is set to conclude on January 25, 2027, in Perth, Australia.[1]

This is the band's first tour with new drummer Ilan Rubin, following the departure of Josh Freese.[2]

The band teased that there is a major tour coming on September 16, 2025, stating "Stay tuned", and "There's more to come".[3] The tour was officially announced one month later on October 23, 2025, with twelve stadium tour dates in United States and Canada spanning through August and September 2026.[4] Three more festival shows in the United States were later announced, and are set to take place in May and September 2026.[5][6][7] Another headlining arena show in Bridgeport, Connecticut was announced on 16 March 2026.[8]

The European leg of the tour was announced on November 10, 2025, with nine stadium shows and three festival dates in June and July 2026.[9] One more festival date at the Pinkpop Festival in the Netherlands was announced two weeks later on 24 November 2025.[10]

The band performed a special benefit concert in Inglewood, United States at the Kia Forum on January 14, 2026. All proceeds from the show were donated to Hope The Mission and Los Angeles Mission organizations.[11] On December 3, 2025, they announced another one-off show in Launceston, Australia at the UTAS Stadium, which took place on 24 January 2026.[12]

In January 2026, it was announced that Pat Smear would be absent for the beginning of the tour after suffering an injury. Guitarist Jason Falkner would take his place.[13]

On February 18, 2026, the band announced a full Australian and New Zealand tour with two legs, one in November 2026 and one in January 2027.[14] The following day the band released new single "Your Favorite Toy" and announced the release of their new album with the same name as the single, which will come out on April 24, 2026.[15] Later that week a series of three intimate shows across Ireland and England was announced, that took place later that month.[16]

On February 26, 2026, it was announced, that the band will be headlining the Rock in Rio festival in Brazil on September 4, 2026.[17]
