The Never Ending Stories Tour (officially Yoasobi North America Tour 2026 "Never Ending Stories") was the fourth overseas concert tour and eighth overall by Japanese duo Yoasobi.

Background and marketing
In early 2026, Yoasobi was confirmed to perform in two North American music festivals—Osheaga Festival in Montreal, Canada on July 31;[1] and Lollapalooza in Chicago, the United States on August 2.[2] On April 15, 2026, the duo announced the North America concert tour, titled Never Ending Stories, alongside their English-language EP, E-Side 4.[3] The tour's regular shows is scheduled to begin in Boston on August 4 and conclude in Los Angeles on the 16th, and includes the festival date of Osheaga and Lollapalooza.[4] The duo became the first Japanese act to perform at historic Hollywood Bowl.[5]
The tour's title, Never Ending Stories, reflects the duo's slogan "novel into music", aiming to "deliver their stories to North America and connect them to the future."[6] The Crunchyroll ticket pre-sales went on April 21, and followed by the artist's pre-sales the next day and general sales the next two days.[7] The tour's official key visual was revealed on June 5.[8] The duo collaborated with Complex for a pop-up store in Los Angeles on August 18 and 19.[9]
