The U2 360° Tour is an upcoming worldwide concert tour by the Irish rock band U2. Launching in support of the group's 2009 album No Line on the Horizon, the tour will visit stadiums from 2009 through 2010, whereas the previous two tours, the Elevation Tour and the Vertigo Tour, were primarily played in indoor arenas. The U2 360° Tour is named after the 360-degree staging and audience configuration it uses for shows, which U2 claims is "the first time a band has toured in stadiums with such a unique and original structure."

U2 are planning to play 40–45 shows in 2009. The tour will begin in Barcelona on 30 June and play in Europe through to 22 August 2009. The North American leg of the tour is planned to begin on 12 September 2009 at Soldier Field in Chicago and will end on 28 October 2009. The band will return to American stadiums for June and July 2010, and travel back to Europe for August and September 2010. The band tentatively plan to tour South America sometime in 2010. The U2 360° Tour could potentially consist of 90–100 shows over the two years.

In keeping with their long-standing tradition, U2 will welcome a number of different support acts to the tour. In Dublin, the 24th July performance will be supported by Glasvegas, and joining on 25th July will be Kaiser Chiefs. Support for the 3rd and final performance on 27th July to be confirmed.
