The Public Service Announcement Tour was a reunion tour by American rock band Rage Against the Machine, which began on July 9, 2022, at Alpine Valley Music Theatre in East Troy, Wisconsin, and concluded early on August 14, 2022, at Madison Square Garden in New York City. This tour marked the band's first live appearances in eleven years, and their first full-length tour in 22 years, after they completed the accompanying tour for its third album The Battle of Los Angeles.

The tour was originally scheduled to start in North America in March 2020, followed by a series of European festival appearances, but it was pushed back to the summer of 2021, then to 2022 and again to 2023, due to the COVID-19 pandemic before many of the dates were cancelled.[1][2] It was announced by drummer Brad Wilk in January 2024 that there would be no more live activities under the Rage Against the Machine name, making the Public Service Announcement their final tour.[3][4]
