For fans of Christian singer-songwriter Josiah Queen, a major new concert experience is officially on the way! After releasing his latest album, Damascus Road, Queen has announced his first-ever arena tour, aptly titled The Damascus Road Tour. Tickets went on presale Sept. 14, giving fans a chance to secure seats before tickets open to the general public.
The tour announcement arrives at an exciting moment in Queen’s rapidly growing career. Known for his emotional songwriting, candid lyrics, and faith-centered music, Queen has built a strong following among young listeners who connect with his songs about faith, doubt, identity, purpose, and hope.
His official website describes him as a rising voice in Christian music, with more than 1.3B combined global streams. Now, Queen is taking that growing fan base to arenas.
When Did the Presale Start?
For fans eager to see Queen live, the presale began Monday, Sept. 14, at 10 a.m. local time, according to the tour promoter, TPR. However, fans should pay attention to the specific time listed for their city, as some venues have slightly different presale start times. For example, Ticketmaster currently lists several dates with presales beginning at 9:30 a.m. local time, while others begin at 10 a.m.
The general public can purchase remaining tickets starting Friday, Sept. 18, at 10 a.m. local time. Since presale availability can vary by venue, fans who already know they want to attend should consider checking their specific venue and ticketing platform before the sale begins.
Where Is Queen Touring?
The Damascus Road Tour will stop in 17 cities across the United States and Canada, beginning Apr. 8, 2027, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The tour will continue through St. Louis, Indianapolis, Grand Rapids, Toronto, Worcester, Hershey, Charlotte, Duluth, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Anaheim, San Diego, Glendale, Cedar Park, and Fort Worth.
The tour is scheduled to wrap up in Fort Worth, Texas, on May 8, 2027. The Fort Worth show will be held at Dickies Arena, with doors opening at 6 p.m. and the concert starting at 7 p.m.
Why This Tour Is a Big Deal
The Damascus Road Tour marks a significant milestone for Queen, signaling his transition to arena performances. The tour announcement describes the upcoming shows as an opportunity for fans to experience Queen’s newest music alongside the songs that helped establish him as a rising name in Christian music.
The tour’s name also connects directly to Queen’s newest album. Damascus Road centers on themes of transformation and encountering God, making the tour more than a simple series of concerts. Queen has described the album as deeply personal and hopes the live shows will leave audiences feeling changed by the experience.
This tour could be an opportunity to experience some of his most personal songs in a much larger setting for college students and young adults who have followed Queen’s music on streaming platforms and social media until now.
What Fans Should Know Before Buying
If you’re planning to attend, start preparing before the general sale begins. Check the official tour schedule, find your city’s venue, and determine which ticketing platform is used. Some venues sell through Ticketmaster, while others may use AXS or their own ticketing systems.
Ticket availability and prices can also change throughout the sales process. Ticketmaster notes that availability may be limited after presales and that resale tickets can cost more than their face value. With a brand-new album, his first arena tour, and 17 cities on the schedule, the countdown is officially on.
The Damascus Road Tour is shaping up to be one of the biggest chapters in Queen’s career so far. If you’re looking to see him on the big stage, I highly recommend planning your concert trip now. My outfit is already planned, my concert group is assembled, and my seats are chosen. I hope to see y’all there!
