A Perfect Circle are officially returning to Europe in 2026, marking their first shows on the continent in seven years. The Maynard James Keenan and Billy Howerdel-led band will bring their acclaimed sound across 13 countries, headlining major venues and festivals including London’s O2 Academy Brixton, Berlin’s Zitadelle, and appearances at Rock Im Park, Rock Am Ring, Nova Rock, and Copenhell.
“To our European friends,” Billy Howerdel shared. “We miss you. It’s been far too long… like seven years too long. We found a solution.” Fans have eagerly awaited the group’s return since their last European run in 2018, and this announcement cements A Perfect Circle’s long-overdue comeback to one of their most passionate fanbases.
Tickets for all headlining performances go on sale Friday, October 31, at 10 a.m. local time, with an exclusive artist pre-sale beginning October 29 at 10 a.m. (Code: ELEPHANT). Stockholm’s performance at Gröna Lund will be part of the venue’s season subscription series.
Formed in 1999 by Billy Howerdel and Maynard James Keenan, A Perfect Circle quickly became one of the defining forces in alternative rock. Their debut album Mer de Noms (2000) made history as the highest-charting debut rock album at the time and remains beloved for hits like “Judith” and “3 Libras.” Over their 25-year career, the band has released Thirteenth Step, eMOTIVe, and Eat the Elephant, the latter debuting at #3 on the Billboard 200. Known for their cinematic live shows, A Perfect Circle have headlined world festivals, sold out venues like the Hollywood Bowl and Madison Square Garden, and continue to captivate fans with their artistry and intensity.
