ATMOSPHERE to Launch THE WINTER CARNIVAL TOUR 2027 Jan 14–Feb 7

Atmosphere has announced new tour dates for the 2027 edition of 'The Winter Carnival Tour,' featuring Souls of Mischief, Mac Lethal, and Blueprint. The 18-date tour will kick off in Green Bay, WI on January 14th with stops along the way in Des Moines, IA, Spokane, WA, Vancouver, BC, and wrapping with a hometown stop in Minneapolis, MN on February 7th.

Atmosphere will offer an exclusive presale for fans starting Wednesday, September 23rd at 10:00am local time through Thursday, September 24 at 10:00pm local time. Tickets go on sale Friday, September 25th at 10 AM local time via atmospheresucks.com.

This announcement follows their latest full length release, Jestures, out now via Rhymesayers Entertainment, and the duo's 30th Anniversary. Nashville Scene notes that 'after 30 years, Slug and Ant are still finding new ways to explore sound on their own terms, having inspired entire branches of the hip-hop history tree while sounding more like themselves than ever.'

Atmosphere will wrap up 2026 with 58 tour dates in 11 countries. In January 2026, Atmosphere debuted the first edition of The Winter Carnival Tour with Mr. Dibbs, R.A. The Rugged Man, Kool Keith and Sage Francis. The tour brought together generations of Rap and Hip Hop fans across 27 shows coast to coast.

Atmosphere 2026 festival performances include Reggae Rise Up in Tempe, AZ, headlining Sundown Solstice in Anchorage, AK and closing out the Crow's Nest stage with a sold-out hometown set at Minnesota Yacht Club in St. Paul, MN. Slug and Ant continued on the road in August, joining the So Glad You Made It Tour with 311, Dirty Heads and Rome. This past weekend, Atmosphere headlined Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO for the 14th time in their career, and Will Close out the year performing at Warped Tour in Orlando, FL on November 14, 2026.

In 2027, Atmosphere will hit the milestones of the 30 year anniversary of their debut album, Overcast!, and the 25th anniversary of their breakout album, God Loves Ugly.

At its essence, Atmosphere has been a musical shepherd, and with each new album comes a new journey as they guide generations of listeners through this thing called life.
