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.
Additionally, every online ticket purchased in North America for the new headline shows will include a physical copy of HELP US STRANGER on CD. Fans will also have the option to upgrade their CD to the standard black vinyl LP.

@Genevieve_Rose – Did you manage to get Troutdale tickets? I was just able to add a Vault presale ticket to my cart w/o a problem.
@STA_MCL That’s what I though, thanks! I was able to get a CD and record for BHR, so I think you’re good.
@CarolinaDrama – I believe you get an email somewhere down the road where you provide your address and format of choice. I am hoping I can select multiple formats but who knows.
Do we get an email at a later date to upgrade the free CD to vinyl, or were we supposed to do it when we bought the tickets? I didn’t see anything about it.
Can’t seem to purchase for Troutdale, OR. Am I the only one? The link takes me to etix and says there’s presale tomorrow for Spotify but nothing for today. What am I doing wrong?
I am just sitting in my office with The Raconteurs playing entirely too loudly while grading papers. Nothing can get me down today. This is the life-giving magic of TMR Vault! Call me Prof Happyface today. Padres have a winning record and I’ll be seeing The Raconteurs this summer. Life is beautiful.
May I ask why European fans don’t get the CD/LP treatment when puchasing a ticketfor one of the EU dates? It was already true for the BHR Tour and now this… Considering how expensive it is to be a Vault Member in EU (shipping cost are horrible), and the fact that because of distance we cannot access events such as the TMR anniversary concert, we feel like we’re not getting our share of the love!
@kaputnik, understood, but it seems that so far no one got GAs at Kings, which seems odd.
Rich and Katherine, definitely not many Tix to Kings. No worries, there will be plenty to get between other presales and general Public
@kaputnik Hammerstein is all GA
