The Hozier North American Tour 2018 kicked off after a run of 4 rehearsal shows in Dublin and London with his new touring band. His last tour ended on 3 March 2016 in Istanbul, after two solid years of touring Hozier’s debut album throughout North America, Australia, and Europe.
The dates for the autumn tour were announced in June, and almost entirely sold out when tickets went on sale 15 June, even before new music had been released.
With fans looking to sell extra tickets at cost to other fans, and many people not able to buy tickets, Hozier’s Guitars launched our Fan-To-Fan Ticket Forum in September to help concert-goers connect.
In July, Hudson Taylor were announced as support for all headlining shows in North America. Both Hozier and Hudson Taylor share the same management and record label.
Delighted to have the wonderful @HudsonTaylor on board as special guests for the upcoming North American tour. pic.twitter.com/JxeeB9MqTd
