The Spark World Tour was a concert tour by rock band Enter Shikari, which took place throughout 2017 and 2018, in support of the band's fifth studio album The Spark, released on 22 September 2017.

[edit]

Following the band's Take to the Skies 10th anniversary tour, the band announced a UK arena tour with support from Lower than Atlantis and Astroid Boys which included the band's second performance at the famous Alexandra Palace in London.[2] On July 31, 2017, the band played a warmup show at The Borderline in London where they debuted the tracks "Take My Country Back" and "Live Outside."[3]

Following the album's release on 22 September 2017, the band played a series of intimate in-store shows including at HMV Oxford Street, London and Rough Trade NYC, Brooklyn.[4] On October 3 the band announced they would be playing a North American tour in early 2018 with support from Milk Teeth including shows at the Music Hall of Williamsburg in Brooklyn and the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles.[5]

In April 2018, the band embarked on an Asia tour which included 5 dates in Japan supporting Crossfaith before a series of headline shows in Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, Taiwan and China.[6]
