Texan dreampop band Cigarettes After Sex have added a roster of new US and Canada dates to their 2022 tour, including concerts in Los Angeles, Dallas and Washington, but general onsale – and even presale – tickets aren’t available yet.
For some of the band’s new tour dates, punters will be able to purchase tickets via local presales. However, not all of Cigarettes After Sex’s upcoming shows include them.
The band have been on tour since 2 June, when they played at Primavera Sound in Barcelona, Spain. They will continue to tour well into October, plus a single November date.
Here’s everything you need to know about where and when to catch Cigarettes After Sex in 2022, including info on upcoming tour dates, ticket prices, presales (if applicable), and a brand new limited edition vinyl release.

Of course, seeing them play at a festival rather than at a standalone concert will likely cost much more. For example, to see them at Corona Capital in Mexico City in November, you’ll have to pay around $200 (for phase 1 tickets).
The last major tour Cigarettes After Sex embarked on was in 2019, from May to November.
