The Bandito Tour (stylized as THE BANDITØ TØUR)^[1] is the sixth concert tour by the American musical duo Twenty One Pilots, in support of their fifth studio album Trench (2018). The tour began at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee on October 16, 2018, and concluded at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, Illinois on December 13, 2019. An additional tour date was scheduled for June 24, 2020, in Dublin, Ireland, before it was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

On July 11, 2018, Twenty One Pilots ended their hiatus by releasing two singles, "Jumpsuit" and "Nico and the Niners". The same day both their album, Trench, and its accompanying tour, The Bandito Tour, were announced.^[2] It was later revealed that indie rock musician Max Frost and electronic rock band Awolnation would join the band for the first North American leg of the tour.^[3] Due to overwhelming demand, the band added a second North American leg to their tour including shows in Canada, Mexico and the band's hometown, Columbus.^[4][5]

The band documented the tour through a series of videos including rehearsals for the tour, as well as clips from the tour itself.^[6][7]

The Bandito Tour is set in three parts: an opening on the "A-stage" followed by a performance on the "B-stage" and concludes with a second "A-stage" performance and an encore.^[8] The show begins with Josh Dun, alone on stage, his face obscured by a yellow bandana and holding a lit torch. As he sits down at the drums, Tyler Joseph rises from below the stage onto a burning car and begins singing "Jumpsuit" followed by "Levitate".^[9] During "Fairly Local", Joseph seemingly falls on stage, only to appear a few seconds later in the upper bowl before removing his ski mask.^[10] A brief interlude plays over the song "Today's Your Day (Whachagonedu?)" by Fatlip, showing the journey of Tyler's red beanie from many of the music videos supporting Blurryface. The beanie is then dropped down from the ceiling by a wire, and Tyler puts it on. The band then plays their breakthrough single, "Stressed Out", followed by "Heathens", on which Joseph plays a piano intro.^[11] The duo then plays "We Don't Believe What's on TV" and "The Judge", Joseph dressed in a floral kimono, before performing "Lane Boy" during which two masked men run on stage to shower the crowd with smoke.^[11][12] Joseph sings and walks across a suspended sky bridge to the b-stage while singing "Nico and the Niners".^[13]

Joseph sits down at the piano while Dun runs through the crowd to the b-stage to play "Neon Gravestones" before singing "Bandito" with the crowd.^[14] He then walks back on to the bridge singing "Pet Cheetah" and incites the crowd to jump around to the final drop.^[10] Dun then returns to the stage and battles himself on the drums, with the other Dun projected onto the screen. During "Holding on to You", Joseph raps the first verse held up by the front row of the crowd before Dun performs his trademark backflip off the piano.^[13] Joseph performs a soft piano intro that leads into "Cut My Lip." After singing "Ride", Joseph divides the crowd in half during "My Blood" to sing along to the falsetto chorus of the song.^[10] The band then performs "Morph", which is ended with Dun playing a miniature drumset held up by the crowd.^[13] Joseph climbs and stands on top of a narrow scaffolding tower during "Car Radio", before leaving the stage.^[13] They return for the encore, performing "Chlorine" while rising into the air on platforms. They then perform the final track off the tour's associated album "Leave the City" before singing the show's final song "Trees", as is traditional during their shows, and closing the song off on top of the audience playing drums as yellow confetti flies through the air.^[9][15]
