Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds announce new European dates for next summer

Nick Cave performing live.

Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds have announced a batch of European dates for next summer. After their only scheduled UK show, taking place at Brighton’s Preston Park at the end of July, sold out instantly, the Australian rock’n’roll veteran have now unveiled a full tour beginning at the start of June.

The jaunt will see the band – currently comprised of Cave alongside Warren Ellis, Jim Sclavunos, George Vjestica, Larry Mullins, Carly Paradis and Radiohead bassist Colin Greenwood – kick off the tour at Malahide Castle in Ireland on June 6, with the run taking in a mixture of festivals and their own headline performances.

Billed as Live Summer 2026, the shows are part of the ongoing tour to support the group’s 18th album Wild God, which came out in 2024. They will also head out for some Antipodean dates in early 2026, playing a series of Australian and New Zealand dates in January and February. Further European dates will be announced soon, with tickets details available at the band's website.
