A Perfect Circle have announced their return to Europe after a seven-year absence. The band revealed multiple headlining shows alongside previously confirmed festival appearances in a statement shared on Instagram.
The band’s official announcement outlined their upcoming European dates and ticket availability.
“We’ve confirmed multiple headlining shows across Europe in addition to our recently announced festival performances at Copenhell, Rock Im Park, Rock Am Ring, and Nova Rock,” the band stated. “Tickets for all newly announced dates are on sale this Friday, 31 October, at 10 am local time.”
Guitarist Billy Howerdel addressed the lengthy gap between European tours directly.
“To our European friends. We miss you. It’s been far too long… like seven years too long,” he said. “We found a solution.”
The tour marks the band’s first European performances since 2018.
The 2026 European tour will feature performances at some of the continent’s most prominent rock festivals. Rock Am Ring confirmed that A Perfect Circle will perform at Rock Im Park in Nürnberg, Germany on June 6, 2026. The band will then perform at Rock am Ring in Nürburg, Germany on June 7, 2026.
The festival circuit continues with an appearance at Nova Rock Festival in Nickelsdorf, Austria on June 12, 2026. Metal Addicts reported this date along with other tour details. The band will also perform at Copenhell Festival in Copenhagen, Denmark in June 2026. The specific date has not yet been announced.
Metal Addicts noted that these performances represent the band’s first UK and European shows in eight years. The extended absence has made the tour highly anticipated among European fans who have been waiting nearly a decade to see the band perform live.
The tour announcement comes as A Perfect Circle continues to maintain their status as one of alternative rock’s most respected acts. Ticket details are available on official festival and band websites. Presale and general sale phases are coordinated through these platforms.
