are apparently planning to tour in late 2017, as the band’s fan site points out.
The site sniffed the tour out from a Kickstarter supporting a catalog to document the first four years of , a Haitian arts festival. One of the rewards listed for the fundraiser promises tickets to an upcoming Arcade Fire show. From :
“Pledge £750 – pair of VIP tickets to your chosen location on next Arcade Fire world tour including meeting with the band at the after party. Estimated delivery: Nov. 2017”
It’s a good bet that the band will have an album released by then, though there are virtually no details on the project. , Arcade Fire frontman Win Butler did allude to the fact the band had at least begun thinking about their follow-up. But with almost two years between us and Nov. 2017, nothing is certain.
In other Arcade Fire news, Win Butler and instrumentalist/wife Régine Chassagne played a charity show in Aspen’s St. Regis Resort on New Year’s Eve. The National’s Matt Berninger joined them later in the show. Head over to for the setlist.
