Matthew McConaughey to Embark on POEMS & PRAYERS Book Tour

Academy Award-winning actor, bestselling author, and cultural storyteller Matthew McConaughey will hit the road in September for a five-city tour to celebrate the publication of his deeply personal new book, POEMS & PRAYERS (Crown) — the long-awaited follow-up to his memoir GREENLIGHTS (Crown), a global phenomenon. Read more about POEMS & PRAYERS here.

The Poems & Prayers Revival Tour will blend heartfelt dialogue with spoken word performances, music, and unexpected moments of connection. At each stop — from New York City to Nashville, Tulsa to Los Angeles, and culminating in his hometown of Austin, Texas — McConaughey will be joined by a special guest for intimate, spontaneous and honest conversation designed to “put a mirror to our souls to see if we recognize each other again.” The aim of sharing this time together? Nothing less than everyone leaving with more hope and belief than they came with.

Filled with faith-driven reflections, raw honesty, and moments of humor that explore what it means to live, love, and believe, “POEMS & PRAYERS is more than a book,” says McConaughey. “It’s a memory — a place where we can rediscover what we’ve lost, celebrate what remains, and maybe even leave behind what no longer serves us.”

The Poems & Prayers Revival Tour promises to be a soulful experience that’s sure to linger. The road doesn’t ask where you’re going, it just asks if you’re ready to walk it. Are you?
