Japanese musician, songwriter, producer and illustrator KENSHI YONEZU today announced the expansion of his KENSHI YONEZU 2026-2027 WORLD TOUR / GHOST, adding new dates across Asia, North America, Europe and the UK in 2027, promoted by Live Nation. One of Japan’s most successful and influential contemporary artists, Yonezu has earned three RIAA-certified recordings, including the first Japanese-language song to receive RIAA Platinum certification, while his music has reached the Top 5 of the Billboard Global 200.
The tour follows Yonezu’s KENSHI YONEZU 2025 WORLD TOUR / JUNK, which marked his live debut in the U.S., Europe and Korea, with first-ever shows in Los Angeles, New York City, London, Paris and Seoul, alongside dates across Asia. Building on the success of that global outing, the expanded GHOST tour will bring Yonezu back to several key markets while reaching new cities around the world.
“IRIS OUT,” the theme song for CHAINSAW MAN – THE MOVIE: REZE ARC, reached No. 5 on the Billboard Global 200—the highest-ever position for a Japanese-language song. It also spent 24 consecutive weeks at No. 1 on Oricon’s Weekly Streaming Chart, the longest run by a solo artist. His breakthrough builds on “Lemon,” which topped the Billboard JAPAN year-end chart for two consecutive years, and ‘STRAY SHEEP’, which reached No. 7 on the IFPI Global Album All Format Chart.
TICKETS: The general onsale for all dates will begin Thursday, October 22 at 12pm local time at LiveNation.com.
