The Horrors Announce 2026 Australian Tour

In April 2026, The Horrors will return to Australia for their first tour Down Under in 12 years.

Earlier this year, the English rockers made a captivating performance at Hobart’s Dark Mofo festival and treated Melbournians to an intimate Live at 3RRR set. In April 2026, The Horrors will return for a full-blown headline tour, where they’ll perform in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth.

The tour begins at Brisbane’s Princess Theatre on Friday, 10 April. It continues at Sydney’s Manning Bar on Saturday, 11 April, Melbourne’s Northcote Theatre on Sunday, 12 April, Adelaide’s Lion Arts Factory on Tuesday, 14 April, and concludes at Perth’s Rosemount Hotel on Wednesday, 15 April.

Pre-sale tickets will be available on Friday, 31 October, at 9 am local time, ahead of the general sale on Monday, 3 November, at 9 am local time. You can find tickets on The Phoenix.

The Horrors are touring in support of their recently released album, Night Life, which dropped in March.

Founding members Faris Badwan (aka Faris Rotter), Joshua Hayward (aka Joshua Von Grimm and Joshua Third), and Rhys Webb (aka Spider Webb) were involved in making the album alongside new members Amelia “Millie” Kidd and Jordan Cook.

Commenting on the lead single, The Silence That Remains, the band said: “The Silence That Remains is a 3 am insomnia walk through the city, retracing our steps and putting the past to bed. Our new chapter is beginning, and we’re looking forward to taking you with us. The Horrors are never-ending.”

Reviewing their performance at this year’s Dark Mofo, The Music’s Bryget Chrisfield remarked:

Highlights of The Horrors’ Dark Mofo performance include Sea Within A Sea’s bubbling synth climax; Badwin’s spoken-word interlude during Who Can Say (“And when I told her I didn't love her anymore/ She cried/ And when I told her, her kisses were not like before/ She cried…” – we die a little inside!); new album cut Lotus Eater, with its danceable, clickety-click beat; and the heart-breaking wistfulness of Something To Remember Me By, which closes proceedings. Don’t let another 13 years elapse between tours, ya hear?
