The Cure Plans Major UK Ireland Summer 2026 Tour Including Wythenshawe Park
The Cure, a legendary alternative rock band fronted by Robert Smith, will headline several UK and Ireland outdoor shows in summer 2026, including a major concert at Wythenshawe Park in Manchester on August 21. Their tour itinerary also includes headline performances in Dublin, Belfast, Edinburgh, and at the Isle of Wight Festival, with support from bands such as Slowdive and The Slow Readers Club, both chosen by Smith himself. The band, inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019, continue to influence alternative music nearly five decades into their career, having released 14 studio albums and performed around 1,800 concerts worldwide. Their recent album, Songs of a Lost World, released in October 2024 to critical acclaim, showcases their evolving sound while maintaining their iconic style. Tickets for their summer 2026 tour go on general sale starting October 3, with pre-sale access available to mailing list subscribers who signed up by late September. The Cure's appearance at Wythenshawe Park adds to the venue's growing reputation as a premier live music destination, having hosted acts like Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Blossoms, and New Order since 2023.
