Hot on the heels of announcing their new album HELP US STRANGER (out June 21 via Third Man Records), The Raconteurs – Jack White, Brendan Benson, Jack Lawrence, and Patrick Keeler – have announced an extensive run of North American headline tour dates. These new dates, spanning from July to October, include previously-announced US festival appearances at Woodstock 50 and Railbird. The band will kick off their world tour with their first trip to Australia and New Zealand later this month, as well as stops in Japan, Europe, and the United Kingdom before returning to the US for their North American tour.
Tickets to the North American headline dates go on sale to the general public on Friday, April 12 at 10am local time. Third Man Records Vault members will have access to the very first pre-sale starting on Tuesday, April 9 at 10am local time, running through Thursday, April 11 at 10pm local time. Vault members will be emailed a pre-sale code later today. For tickets and more information on all tour dates, visit https://theraconteurs.com/tour.

Ticketmaster told me I couldn’t purchase tickets on “this device” (which was my desktop computer)! I don’t have a "smart"phone or any other access to the internet so I had to race to a friends house. What kind of world are we living in when a desktop computer cannot purchase tickets!? lol
Got my code this morning. Tickets to Indy secured. Very excited. Haven’t seen The Raconteurs since the New Year’s Eve shows in Chicago in ‘06. Can’t wait.
General Admission at Kings is a fraction of the size of the GA at Hammerstein.
@Katherine Lazaris, as much as I would love to blame TicketMaster, it seems more likely that The Vault pre-sale allotment didn’t provide as many tickets for the Brooklyn show as needed to meet the demand.
I was also in right at 10am for Kings Theater in BK – and barely anything left. It wasn’t even clear if there were even GA tickets had been available at all – you couldn’t select GA, but it didn’t say sold out. I was also able to abandon at 10:10am and get GA tix for Hammerstein Ballroom as well. TM is the worst.
Please come to Stockholm Sweden soon.
For those of you who have yet to received their code, email them at vault@thirdmanrecords.com . I emailed customer service last night, received my code early this morning and was able to get pit tickets to the Greek Theater. beyond excited!
Hello beautiful people out there! I think I made a mistake! Has anyone been to the Midland in Kansas City? I bought GA because I thought I’d be able to get to the front but after looking at seating, it looks like GA is standing room in the back?!? Is this right? Please someone, ease my nervous heart!!! You can also text me at
808-250-2536 so your comment doesn’t get lost in here!
KANSAS CITY 10/17. Help!!! Did I just waste my Presale chance on ticket duds?!?
Very jealous Brad Davis! How did you get your code into the Ticketmaster app? I’m signed in but nothing’s coming up…
I live walking distance to Kings Theatre, yet I had to choose the Hammerstein Ballroom in Manhattan instead, because there was nothing good available for Kings.
