Outkast Reunion: Andre 3000, Big Boi Announce 40-Date Festival Tour Following Coachella Performance

Outkast is planning on doing more tour dates after their reunion concert at Coachella 2014, USA Today reports. Antwan "Big Boi" Patton and Andre "3000" Benjamin will hit the road together in the spring and summer but have not revealed tour dates yet.

The news was announced on their website and other social media accounts. The hip-hop duo will be celebrating a huge milestone: it's been 20 years since they released their debut album "Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik" in 2004.

"Ingenious and iconic recording artists and performers, Antwan 'Big Boi' Patton and Andre '3000' Benjamin today announced via Outkast's social media platforms that their return to the stage celebrating their 20th anniversary will include festival dates around the world. After headlining performances at Coachella in April, the influential group will be the marquee act over 40 festivals around the world throughout the Spring/Summer of 2014 (dates to be announced)," their website read.

"Returning to the stage together is the most exciting way for us to thank everyone for their 20 years of supporting Outkast," Andre 3000 said on the group's Facebook page.

"I'm looking forward to rocking the stage with my Bro Ski and to all the fans - stank ya smelly much, this is for y'all!" Big Boi added.

It was revealed back in November that the group would be ending their 7-year hiatus to perform at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, Calif. The festival begins Apr. 11, 2014.

"It's truly an honor to celebrate 20 years and still be free to d music the way we choose," Big Boi said in a statement, USA Today reports. "Don't just think outside the box, know that there is no box."

Last year Andre 3000 dismissed rumors that the duo was putting out a new album telling GQ "as of now, there are no plans for another Outkast album."
