Queens of the Stone Age have announced the Perfecth World Tour, a 16-date U.S. arena and amphitheater run in May 2027 supporting their new album Perfecth (out October 30, 2026, via Matador). Pixies and Wheelchair Sports Camp open the North American shows. Demand is expected to be high after the band’s recent stadium dates opening for Foo Fighters, so the best deals will go to fans who prepare early.

How to Get the Cheapest Tickets

Tickets are not yet on general sale. Here’s the timeline and best approach for face-value or near-face-value prices:

• Newsletter Presale: Tuesday, October 27 at 10 a.m. local time
• Artist Presale: Wednesday, October 28 at 10 a.m. local time
• General Onsale: Thursday, October 29 at 10 a.m. local time

Sign up for the artist presale by Sunday, October 25 at 11:59 p.m. ET via the Live Nation/QOTSA presale link (also shared by Ticketmaster and Matador). Sales run in the venue’s local time zone.

Tips for the best deals:

• Join the official newsletter and artist presale — these usually have the widest selection and lowest prices before the public rush.
• Be ready at exactly 10 a.m. local with your Ticketmaster or Live Nation account logged in and payment ready.
• Compare face-value options on Ticketmaster first, then check secondary markets (SeatGeek, StubHub, Capital City Tickets) only if primary inventory is gone. Secondary prices often start higher and can drop closer to the show if demand softens.
• High-demand stops (Kia Forum, Red Rocks, TD Garden, Climate Pledge Arena, Allstate Arena) will move fastest. Mid-tier markets like Sacramento, Salt Lake City, Indianapolis, or Pittsburgh may offer better availability and lower secondary prices later.
• Avoid dynamic pricing spikes by buying during presale or early general sale rather than the day of the show.
• Watch for verified resale options with buyer protection on major platforms.

Official ticket listings will appear on the Ticketmaster Queens of the Stone Age artist page.

Venue Notes for Major Stops

• Red Rocks (May 12): Outdoor show with limited capacity. Expect strong demand and limited cheap seats. Arrive early for parking; the venue has its own lot system.
• Kia Forum (Inglewood, May 2) and Oakland Arena (May 4): California dates often sell out quickly due to the band’s Palm Desert roots.
• TD Garden (Boston, May 24) and Little Caesars Arena (Detroit, May 22): Arena shows with strong sightlines; upper levels can offer better value.
• American Family Insurance Amphitheater (Milwaukee, May 15): Outdoor/amphitheater setting — check weather and parking options in advance.

For full venue policies (bag rules, mobile-only entry, parking, accessible seating), check each venue’s official site closer to the show date.

Buying Guide: Primary vs. Secondary Markets

Primary tickets through Ticketmaster/Live Nation offer face value plus standard fees and the strongest buyer protections. Secondary platforms (SeatGeek, StubHub, Capital City Tickets, and Nashville Ticket Brokers) provide flexibility after the initial sale but can carry higher markups and fees. Always verify seller ratings and use platforms with buyer guarantees.

Resale rules and all-in pricing transparency vary by market and platform. Mobile tickets are standard for most of these venues — have the Ticketmaster app ready and avoid screenshots where venues require live barcodes.

Final Advice

With a new album and strong support acts, the Perfecth World Tour is one of the more anticipated rock runs of 2027. The cheapest tickets will almost always come from the official presales. Set your alarms for October 27–29, sign up for the artist presale now, and prioritize high-demand dates early.
