List of NME concert tours

Throughout the year, NME sponsors numerous tours of the United Kingdom by various up-and-coming and established bands in a variety of formats.

[1] The tour normally showcast the main protagonists of the independent alternative rock scene, with a number of relatively unheard of bands usually supporting more mainstream acts.

In 2017, rather than organise a tour themselves, NME sponsored a series of previously announced headline dates by the band Blossoms.

[19] The inaugural tour features mainly bands from areas of the US, such as New York City, Brooklyn and Los Angeles.

[22] The line-up consisted of bands who were closely related to the "new rave" music scene which appeared throughout 2006.

Klaxons would go on to headline the Indie Rave leg of the NME Awards Tour in February 2007 It is unknown whether or not another New Rave Revolution Tour will take place, due to the small number of bands and the short-lived nature of the genre.
