Ani DiFranco has confirmed a new slate of North American live dates beginning this spring and stretching into the summer. Her 2026 Spirit of Love Tour will take the 55-year-old talent to venues across the U.S. and Canada, coinciding with multiple previously announced festival appearances.
The leg of dates begins in Nashville at the historic Ryman Auditorium on May 1, and includes later stops in Baltimore, Vancouver, Portland, Asheville, N.C., and more before wrapping up with a performance in Sonoma, Calif., on Aug. 16. Fellow eclectic and multi-talented artist Valerie June will serve as support on select dates noted below.
DiFranco, who will release her new book The Spirit of Ani on March 3, is expected to announce additional live dates in the coming weeks. Tickets for these newly confirmed shows will go on sale this Friday, Feb. 20, at 10 a.m. local time.
