  • Hall of Famers Deep Purple are set to tour the United Kingdom in 2026.
  • The rock icons are set for shows in London, Glasgow, Newcastle, Birmingham and Manchester throughout November.

Following on from the success of their acclaimed 2024 album, ‘=1,’ global rock icons Deep Purple have announced they’re set to tour the United Kingdom in late 2026.

The band’s popularity has risen once again, especially with a younger audience, after their classic song ‘Child In Time’ was featured in a trailer for the much-anticipated final season of Netflix series, Stranger Things, and continues to be an influence on many modern rock acts.

That includes those aspiring guitarists picking up the ‘axe’ and learning 'Smoke on the Water', with their legacy spanning over five decades, their status cemented by their Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction, and their unparalleled catalogue—including anthems like 'Highway Star'—still maintaining their status as one of the world’s most revered live acts.

Joining the band on the tour will be UK act Jayler (all dates), and the Wolfgang Van Halen-led Mammoth (all dates excluding London), completing a powerhouse bill that celebrates both the legacy and future of rock across the UK, starting in Newcastle on November 18 and finishing in London on November 24.
