Beginning in August, Glover will embark on a tour that stretches through 2024, with dates in North America, Europe and Australia. He is supported in various poses by Willow and Amaarae.
Before the tour, he will host an “exclusive interactive experience” on July 6 in New York called “Childish Gambino Live From Little Island.” The event will be the first opportunity for fans to hear the musician's new album.
