Interpol and Bloc Party today announce a co-headline tour that will unite two era-defining bands for a run of 18 dates across the UK and Europe in 2026. The tour begins in Copenhagen on 10 November at the Royal Arena, before heading through Berlin, Paris, and Amsterdam, and reaching the UK on 20 November for a first show at Birmingham’s Utilita Arena. The run continues with dates in Cardiff, Sheffield, Dublin and Glasgow, alongside two nights in Manchester and Brighton, before culminating with two huge closing shows at London’s Olympia on 4 and 5 December.
The tour will see two of the most influential acts of the last three decades performing songs from across their 20 year-spanning discographies, including Bloc Party’s seminal debut Silent Alarm and Interpol’s landmark sophomore album Antics. Having previously toured the UK together in 2004 and co-headlined a series of shows in Australia in 2023, the two bands will bring their longstanding partnership back to the UK and Europe, giving fans the chance to hear some of their most defining songs live once again. Tickets go on general sale at 9am GMT on Friday 7 November; fans signing up to the bands’ mailing lists will receive access to a pre-sale from 9am GMT on Wednesday 5 November.

Interpol will also return to Coachella in 2026 across both weekends, as well as a run of dates through South America with shows in Peru and Bogota and as the main support to Deftones at Lollapalooza in Argentina, Chile and Brazil. The band will be back with new music in 2026.
