Queens of the Stone Age are bringing back the “Catacombs Tour” for a five-date west coast run beginning April 24th in Joshua Tree, California, wrapping May 1st in Lincoln. Tickets go on sale Friday, February 27th at 10 am PT. The run opens at the Joshua Tree Retreat Center, a homecoming of sorts for frontman Josh Homme, who grew up in nearby Palm Desert.
The Catacombs Tour is a distinct production, built around the band’s ‘Alive in the Catacombs’ concert film and live EP, recorded inside the Catacombs of Paris. The live show augments Queens of the Stone Age’s signature desert rock sound with strings and additional instrumentation, pulling from both catalog deep cuts and established hits in a more layered, considered setting than a standard headlining show. The 2025 run earned universal acclaim, and this edition picks up where that left off.
The five dates move through California and up the coast, with stops at Agua Caliente Rancho Mirage, the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in Portland, and the Paramount Theatre in Seattle before closing at Thunder Valley Casino Resort in Lincoln, California. After this run wraps, Queens of the Stone Age join Foo Fighters for an extended U.S. summer tour.
