Smells Like Children was the fourth tour Marilyn Manson embarked on, under management of major record label Interscope Records. The tour was, however, the band's second headlining tour, as the band had prior to this toured with Nine Inch Nails for the Self Destruct Tour, Danzig for the 4p Tour, and headlined their very first tour a year prior. The band was on the tour from June 1, 1995 until February 4, 1996.
