Alive 2006/2007 was a concert tour by French electronic music duo Daft Punk, their first tour as a group since 1997. While the 2006 concerts were not given a formal billing, the 2007 performances were advertised as "Alive 2007", thus the tour was retroactively renamed "Alive 2006/2007".

Beginning with a sole U.S. performance at the 2006 edition of the Coachella Festival in Indio, Cali. , the trek followed with a smattering of European festival appearances throughout the Summer. Two consecutive performances at the Summer Sonic Festival in Japan, held in the cities of Osaka and Tokyo respectively, were also played.

In the Autumn, the duo toured South America and played their second U.S. performance at the Bang! Music Festival in Miami, Fla., their final date of the year.

The duo returned to the live circuit in June 2007, beginning with an appearance at Scotland's RockNess Festival, held near the city of Inverness. After further European shows and festival performances, the act returned to North America for a full-fledged eight-date tour. This reached many markets for the first time on the trek, and included a headlining slot at the Lollapalooza Festival in Chicago, Ill.. A second leg of shows in October followed, with an appearance at the Vegoose Festival in Las Vegas, Nev. and three shows in Mexico.

To cap off a successful year, the duo returned to Japan in December followed by a series of special shows in Australia, dubbed the Never Ever Land Tour. Featuring regular Daft Punk stalwarts SebastiAn and Kavinsky, they were ultimately the fastest selling Daft Punk-related events to date. The tour culminated in Sydney, Australia at the Showground Main Arena.

A live CD entitled Alive 2007, which featured the performance of their show at Palais Omnisport Bercy in Paris, France, was recorded and released in November 2007.

The tour was met with praise and critical acclaim. The Times described Daft Punk's set as a "memorable sensory spectacle, both dazzling and deafening".
