These shows will take place at Las Vegas’ Cosmopolitan on Saturday, Sept. 27 and El Paso’s Abraham Chavez Theatre on Wednesday, Oct. 1.
Special guests have been teased for both shows; at the time of publication, they have yet to be announced.
This quick flurry of concerts will be the first for the garage rockers since March 2024 when they performed a one-off at Chicago’s Credit Union 1 Arena to support U.S. Representative Kina Collins. That night, the scuzzy, fuzzy quintet delivered a 16-song set according to Set List FM. Highlights included fan favorites like “Is This It,” “New York City Cops,” “Soma,” “Someday” and “Reptilia” as well as the band’s sublime, under-appreciated gem “Call It Fate, Call It Karma.”
“Most of the members focus on delivering a tight sound, resulting in them standing still on stage while lead singer Julian walks and dances around, waiting for his verses,” Prowl Radio wrote in a review of the show.
“…in regular fashion, Julian had a ball on stage, rambling and joking around between songs, delivering unhinged remarks such as ‘Where is my elixir? My steroid juice!’ with maniacal laughter as he drank and also yelled, ‘People of Chicago… REPENT!’”
Over the last year, Casablancas, 46, has spent time fronting his side-group, The Voidz. On July 30, they released a four-song EP titled “Męġż of Råm,” that sounds wholly unlike The Strokes but is an acquired taste worth trying; we can’t get enough of the experimental half laid-back/half metal auto-tune aesthetic the group has cultivated.
Fans can purchase tickets for all upcoming Strokes shows and festival appearances on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale for the two one-off shows is Friday, Aug. 8.
Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.
They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.

The payoff to the short tour goes down in Austin on Oct. 3-5 and Oct. 10-12.
Both weekends, the “Reptilia” rockers will be joined by big names like Sabrina Carpenter, Hozier, Cage The Elephant, Doechii and Rilo Kiley.
Personally, we’re most excited to see Dr. Dog but that might just be us.

Julian Casablancas new music
On July 30, Casablancas’ The Voidz unveiled the four-song EP “Męġż of Råm.”
It’s a weird, unbridled, pure artistic expression. Tight harmonies, lush soundscapes and bizarre yet beautiful vocal choices by Jules make for a fascinating listening experience that we can’t help but revisit over and over. Although we love The Strokes wholeheartedly, this side project diversion allows Casablancas to let his freak flag fly in a way his OG band never would.
In the event, you’d like to listen we recommend starting with the paranoid anthem “Blue Demon.” The almost four-minute bop is like a cursed 8-bit video game soundtrack that somehow makes you want to get up and shake it.
We’re also partial to the creepy yet tranquil “Russian Coney Island,” chilled-out fantasy “Unholy Lover” and almost ambient fever dream “Drifto.”
