Yawn’s only announced West Coast dates for 2025 are in British Columbia, Canada, with no U.S. shows at this time. Julia McDougall, Yawn’s creative force, shared the dates alongside the rollout of her debut LP, describing the lead single, “coloured lights,” as a “party song for existentialists,” dedicated to “the lonely and the weary.
Fans hoping for U.S. stops should note that Songkick shows no 2025 concerts outside Canada, and Bandsintown likewise lists no upcoming shows beyond the BC dates.
What the announced West Coast dates look like

Yawn’s press release on May 7, 2025, lists four June dates along the British Columbia coast:
- June 18 at The Green Room in Cumberland, BC
- June 19 at The Vault in Nanaimo, BC
- June 21 at Green Auto Body in Vancouver, BC
- June 27 at ArtsWells in Wells, BC
These shows form a short regional leg and tie into McDougall’s upcoming album, Wish I Could’ve, which arrives June 13.
How to find and buy tickets

Primary ticket information for each show appears on Yawn’s official site and major platforms like Ticketmaster and Songkick. To be first in line:

What to know about the venues on the tour
Each BC site on this run is a mid-sized local spot rather than an arena. The Green Room in Cumberland and The Vault in Nanaimo typically hold a few hundred people, while Green Auto Body in Vancouver doubles as a visual-arts space. ArtsWells is an outdoor festival setting, so attendees should plan for diverse weather and terrain.
Tips for getting the best experience
- Check venue policies—age limits, bag rules, and camera restrictions vary by site.
- Plan your travel—drive times on Vancouver Island can be long; ferry schedules matter.
- Arrive early—smaller venues fill promptly and have limited seating or standing room.
- Dress in layers—June evenings in the BC interior can cool off after sunset.
What to do if you want U.S. shows

As of May 8, no U.S. West Coast concerts are on record for 2025. You can:
- Keep watching Yawn’s channels for any surprise additions.
- Join fan communities—forums and social media groups generally share early tips.
- Explore similar acts—if you’re looking for indie-electronic shows nearby, bands like Beach House or Mitski have U.S. tours planned this summer.
