- This article is about the tour. For the album, see Portrait of an American Family (album).
Portrait of an American Family was the second tour Marilyn Manson embarked on, now under management of major record label Interscope Records. The tour was, however, the band's first headlining tour, as the band had prior to this toured with Nine Inch Nails for the Self Destruct Tour. The band was on the tour from December 27, 1994 until March 11, 1995.

- Vocals: Marilyn Manson

Stage Antics
During these concerts, the stage usually was arranged like a living room, much like the one on the portrait album cover. A table with a lamp was the most commonly seen. Memorable incidents include the night mentioned at the bottom of this page (Trivia) in which Manson used a strap-on dildo on-stage and the fact that during these shows it was usual to witness Manson cut himself.
Tour Dates
Trivia
- On December 27, 1994, the first night of the tour, Marilyn Manson was arrested following the band's performance due to violation of the Adult Entertainment Code, and taken into custody for the night. Despite this, the band was able to perform the following night as scheduled.
- The performances in Carrboro, North Carolina and Columbia, South Carolina on February 16 and February 18, 1994 respectively were rescheduled for reasons unknown.
