Noah Kahan just turned a career milestone into a victory lap. During the Grammys broadcast, the Vermont-born singer used prime time to drop the music video for The Great Divide and announce his next chapter, The Great Divide Tour. It is big, it is bold, and it signals a full leap from beloved indie storyteller to stadium headliner.
A Grammys-night power move
The reveal landed like a thunderclap. Kahan introduced The Great Divide with a moody, confident visual, then rolled straight into tour news. The timing was no accident. He met the moment, then used it to open a new lane. His voice sounded grainy and close, his writing sharp and tender. The message was clear. The next era is here, and it is built to carry.

That choice tracks with his rise. Stick Season made him a household name, a rare folk-pop hit that felt both intimate and huge. The Great Divide steps into that space with bigger rooms in mind. Not louder for loudness, but wider in scope. He is chasing catharsis you can feel from the upper deck.
Stadium season begins
I can confirm early stadium stops are in play, including Raleigh’s Carter-Finley Stadium on July 25. That is not a side bet. That is a statement. When a songwriter known for campfire confessionals starts booking football venues, you are witnessing a moment of crossover few artists get.
Circle July 25, Carter-Finley Stadium, Raleigh. Stadium Kahan is officially happening.
This is not just about scale. It is about community. His shows have become sing-alongs that feel like late summer nights, all heart and no pretense. Now imagine those choruses under open sky, with tens of thousands of voices, and you get the picture. Expect more major markets to surface as routing locks. Expect demand to be intense.

The sound of The Great Divide era
The Great Divide puts focus where Kahan lives best, vivid detail, aching melody, and a pulse that moves. There is new muscle in the production, room for his voice to crack and then soar. You hear a writer unafraid to show seams, then stitch them into something you can shout back at him. That push and pull, small-town story and stadium-size feeling, is his sweet spot.
Celebrities have noticed for a while. Big-name collaborators have lined up to share verses with him across recent releases. Fans will be watching for surprise guests on the road. Even without them, the draw is the same. He makes big spaces feel personal.
What we can confirm now
- Tour name, The Great Divide Tour
- New music video for The Great Divide debuted during the Grammys broadcast
- Stadium-level routing is on deck, with Raleigh on July 25
- More dates and on-sale details will roll out through his official channels
Ticket game plan
If you have been with Kahan since the club days, this is the payoff. If you found him through Stick Season, this is your live moment. Either way, prep now. Presale and on-sale windows will move fast, and they will likely stagger by city. Watch his official website and socials for codes, timing, and seating maps. Act the second your window opens, and have a backup plan.
Create your ticketing accounts in advance, save payment info, and log in 10 minutes early. Pick two preferred sections before the queue opens.
Think about the experience you want. Floors for sweat and sway. Lower bowl for the full-venue sing. Upper deck for the panoramic view of thousands of phone lights on Stick Season. And remember, patience can pay. Holds often release in the final 48 hours before a show.
Avoid shady resale links. Prices can jump in real time. Use verified platforms, and compare before you click buy.
Why this moment matters
Noah Kahan has always written like a friend pulling you aside, telling the truth with a half-smile. Now he is bringing that truth to the biggest rooms in the country. The Great Divide feels like a bridge between the artist he was and the star he is now. It invites new fans in without losing the core that made him matter.
The headline is simple. A Grammy-stage reveal, a tour that plays to the rafters, and a songwriter stepping into the scale he has earned. Summer belongs to voices that carry. Noah Kahan is ready to fill the air.
