Bloc Party and Interpol announce 2026 UK & EU co-headline tour
Bloc Party and Interpol have announced a co-headline tour that will unite two era-defining bands for a run of 18 dates across the UK and Europe in 2026.
The tour begins in Copenhagen on 10 November at the Royal Arena, before heading through Berlin, Paris, and Amsterdam, and reaching the UK on 20 November for a first show at Birmingham’s Utilita Arena. The run continues with dates in Cardiff, Sheffield, Dublin and Glasgow, alongside two nights in Manchester and Brighton, before culminating with two huge closing shows at London’s Olympia on 4 and 5 December.
The tour will see the two bands performing songs from across their 20 year-spanning discographies, including Bloc Party’s debut Silent Alarm and Interpol’s second album Antics, both of which celebrate their 20th anniversaries this year. Having previously toured the UK together in 2004 and co-headlined a series of shows in Australia in 2023, the two bands will bring their longstanding partnership back to the UK and Europe.
Tickets go on general sale at 9am GMT on Friday 7 November. Fans signing up to the bands’ mailing lists will receive access to a pre-sale from 9am GMT on Wednesday 5 November.
