A Perfect Circle confirm first UK and European tour dates in seven years: “We miss you”

A Perfect Circle have announced their first tour dates in the UK and Europe in seven years.

The band haven’t played on the continent in since 2018, when they travelled from across the pond to play a handful of dates in support of their fourth studio album ‘Eat The Elephant’.

In a new update shared on social media this morning (Monday October 27), they said that the wait was coming to an end, as they would be heading back in 2026.

“To our European friends,” founding member Billy Howerdel began. “We miss you. It’s been far too long… like seven years too long. We found a solution.”

The tour kicks off in June with two back-to-back stops at the O2 Academy Brixton in London, held on June 3 and 4. From there, the band will make stops at festivals Rock im Park and Rock am Ring, Nova Rock, Copenhell and more, before continuing with more headline shows.

Headline dates include further stops in Zurich, Disseldorf, Amsterdam and more towards the end of June, followed by gigs in Berlin, Prague, and Luxembourg in early July.

Tickets go on sale this Friday (October 31) at 10am local time. Visit here for UK tickets and here for European tickets.

While A Perfect Circle haven’t toured in the UK or Europe since 2018, they have been playing regularly alongside Puscifer and Primus in the US, as part of Maynard James Keenan‘s ‘Sessanta Tour’.

Keenan is a singer in both Puscifer and A Perfect Circle, as well as in Tool, and as the name suggests, the tour dates celebrate his 60th birthday.

Last year, A Perfect Circle, Puscifer and Primus also joined forces to release the joint EP ‘Sessanta E.P.P.P’, and surprised fans in California by bringing out Tool’s Danny Carey, Adam Jones, and Justin Chancellor for a surprise set.

A Perfect Circle are a Los Angeles supergroup comprised of Keenan, The Smashing Pumpkins‘ James Iha, Ashes Divide’s Billy Howerdel, former Eagles Of Death Metal touring member and Matt McJunkins. Both Josh Freese – formerly of Foo Fighters and now with Nine Inch Nails – and Jeff Friedl have been involved as drummer.
