How to get Foo Fighters tickets

Tickets for all six UK dates go on general sale at 9am BST on 30 June via Ticketmaster and See Tickets.

Presale tickets will go on sale from 9am BST on 28 June.

The band’s confirmation of a UK tour comes after an electric performance at Glastonbury 2023, where they surprised fans with a secret set, having been billed  under the pseudonym of ‘The Churnups’. 

Grohl and co. were due to play in the UK as part of their 2022 world tour, which was cut short after the tragic passing of the band’s drummer at the time, Taylor Hawkins. 

Their last performance prior to his death was on 20 March 2022 at Lollapalooza Argentina.

Josh Freese, who has been a member of Devo since 1996 and the Vandals since 1989, became the group’s new drummer in May 2023. 

He has also toured with the Offspring, Guns N’ Roses, Danny Elfman, Weezer, Sting, Paramore, Nine Inch Nails and 100 Gecs.

A statement released across the rock group’s social media channels read: ‘It is with great sadness that Foo Fighters confirm the cancellation of all upcoming tour dates in light of the staggering loss of our brother Taylor Hawkins.

‘We’re sorry for and share in the disappointment that we won’t be seeing one another as planned. Instead, let’s take this time to grieve, to heal, to pull our loved ones close, and to appreciate all the music and memories we’ve made together.’
