It won't be very long before new tour dates are announced and finally the tickets will go on sale?

I think when the tour was first announced, we all believed that the first leg would be Europe, the second leg the rest of the world.
Now all the ticket sites preparing and the rumours about the European festivals, that seems to be wrong, surprisingly.

That`s how i thought it would be too.It`s a bonus if they come back to Europe for anyone that wants to see it again ,if the countries in question are possible to visit without spending a fortune. I am still a bit sceptical until i see it announced officially though.

 

[Aggelos]

from what I hear it will be announced next week. at least that's the rumor for greece and if they announce one they will announce all, or most.

I still don't understand why they're playing Europe 2 years in a row. Seems like a odd way to play a world tour.

They probably want to play festivals they missed this time around. E.g. Download Festival.

They did miss a good number of European markets in 2025, so it makes sense to make the most of it if the demand is there.

Rod has dollar signs in his eyes, why turn down another stadium run lol

 

[IronRobin]

Metal Pilgrim posted a video on youtube earlier basically confirming new European shows and a US tour

Normally they would have waited to 2027, but unfortunately the band don’t have any plans beyond 2026.



Or maybe they do. Who knows.

Odd for their habits now, but it's certainly better than doing a 3rd leg (usually with European shows). Maybe the 2027 plans play a role. This tour is special and their biggest, the demand is there and they didn't visit some European markets with the previous tour. They always start tours in Europe now, but maybe the next tour won't be like that, who knows.

they are not coming to Greece for some years (they even missed alexander ). also Bulgaria for few years, where they have high demand. and to Turkey for sooo many years (where Bruce's concert had the biggest audience in all of his solo run). Hope they can make it happen now in the 2nd europe run.

WHAT? They didnt play in athens alexander the great? Thats is becasue the flares.

 

[matic22]

I think they will do 4-6 concerts in the Balkan region plus festivals in central Europe and UK. 15 dates or so. Then, NA and SA will follow. Around 45-50 shows is my prediction.

No. The Future Past tour did not go to Athens at all, and it wasn't because of the flares. When Bruce played a festival in Athens on his solo tour they played most of ATG for the crowd.
