EsDeeKid’s Council House Rat Tour is entering its final US stretch, and the masked Liverpool rapper shows no sign of slowing down. The 48-date headline run opened September 12 at The Fillmore Charlotte, and the North American leg wraps in Raleigh, North Carolina on October 27. Europe is next, with arena dates in London and Dublin on the schedule. It is the biggest run yet for one of the most talked-about names on the UK underground rap scene.
EsDeeKid Tour Dates 2026: What’s Left
The final US stops include Atlanta’s Coca-Cola Roxy on October 24 and Nashville’s The Truth on October 25, before closing at Raleigh’s The Ritz. From there, the tour crosses the Atlantic, starting off on November 2 at Helsinki’s House of Culture, then continuing on to Berlin’s Columbiahalle, Prague’s Forum Karlín, Paris’s L’Olympia, and Amsterdam’s AFAS Live.
The British and Irish shows start with OVO Arena Wembley on December 3, followed by Dublin’s 3Arena on December 6 and Glasgow’s OVO Hydro on December 7. Two hometown nights at Liverpool’s Blackstone Street Warehouse on December 10 and 11 close the tour. London rapper Rico Ace is supporting throughout.
From Council Flat to Arena Stages
The size of this tour shows how fast EsDeeKid has grown. His 2025 debut mixtape Rebel peaked at number eight on the Official Albums Chart, and has since been certified Gold by the BPI. The December 2025 release of the “4 Raws” remix — which features Timothée Chalamet — brought EsDeeKid’s wider attention outside the UK.
The Mystery Is the Draw
Because of EsDeeKid’s penchant for performing in balaclavas, scarves and oversized hoods, his identity has long been the subject of online speculation. He has been suspected of being “Timothée Chalamet in disguise”, although Chalamet’s appearance on the “4 Raws” remix laid these suspicions to rest.
For many fans, this anonymity is a significant part of the appeal. As for the artist, he seems content to let his music and unpredictable live shows do the talking.
How to Get EsDeeKid Tickets
Framed as “the next chapter for EsDeeKid,” the tour opened for general sale on July 31 after presales the day before. With the US run almost done and Europe opening November 2, fans planning around the European leg should book travel early, especially for Wembley and the Liverpool homecoming. In any case, the Council House Rat Tour sends a powerful message that EsDeeKid has risen from his underground roots to become a full-scale touring phenomenon. Not bad for a Scouse rapper who went from Liverpool council houses to global stages without compromising his sound.
