DJ Snake Reveals An Insane 39 Date Tour Schedule And New Music On The Way
DJ Snake took to Twitter today to reveal his Summer 2017 schedule and it is hands down ridiculous. The DJ legend is going to make 39 stops over the next two months in dozens of countries. While many of the dates could be figured out by piecing together festival and event line ups, this is the first time we are seeing them all in one place.
Some of this barely makes any sense. Some performances seem closer together than the travel time required. A schedule like this actually explains why DJ Snake took a break from shows and social media for a bit about a month ago. You can see the full schedule below.
New Music Finished?
One fan quipped back at the tweet of the schedule asking DJ Snake where’s the new music? Snake fired back saying that it is in fact sitting in his Laptop. So no we know folks – there will be some new music to be heard over the summer as DJ Snake travels the world. Keep and eye out for any IDs

That “Laptop” Music Turned Into Some Massive Records
Turns out DJ Snake wasn’t just being coy — whatever was sitting on that laptop eventually became some of the biggest global hits of his career. The following year he dropped “Taki Taki” with Cardi B, Selena Gomez, and Ozuna, a track that turned into one of the defining crossover dance-pop records of 2018 and helped push DJ Snake even further past the DJ-booth crowd and into mainstream pop territory.
That’s kind of always been his move, honestly. DJ Snake doesn’t just stay in his lane as a festival headliner — he’s built a career finding pop and hip-hop features that actually make sense sonically, instead of feeling like a forced crossover. A brutal touring schedule like this 39-date summer run is part of how he’s stayed everywhere at once: on the road non-stop while still quietly finishing music that would end up dominating radio and streaming a year later. Not a bad way to spend a summer.
