The Wind & Wuthering Tour was a concert tour by the English rock band Genesis.
Their last tour with guitarist Steve Hackett prior to his departure, and the first with Chester Thompson as their touring drummer, the tour was staged in support of their 1976 album Wind & Wuthering and their 1977 extended play Spot the Pigeon, visiting theatres and arenas from January to July 1977. The band used improved sound and stage lighting systems than before, including a set of Boeing aircraft landing lights. The tour featured Genesis' first South American dates, playing eight shows in three Brazilian cities, drawing large crowds and an enthusiastic response from fans and the press. Recordings from the tour's dates in Paris were used for the band's second live album Seconds Out, released in 1977.
