Hollywood Vampires have confirmed plans to return to the road with a European tour scheduled for summer 2026, marking their first extensive run across the UK and mainland Europe in several years.
The supergroup brings together Alice Cooper, Joe Perry of Aerosmith, actor and musician Johnny Depp, and producer-songwriter Tommy Henriksen. Since their formation in 2015, Hollywood Vampires have built a reputation for high-energy live shows rooted in classic rock tradition and a shared reverence for the musicians who shaped the genre.
The project takes its name from the legendary drinking club Cooper once frequented in the early 1970s, whose members included figures such as John Lennon and Keith Moon. What began as an informal collaboration evolved into a full-fledged band, united by a desire to honor fallen rock icons while delivering uncompromising rock-and-roll performances.
Announcing their return to the stage, Hollywood Vampires said:
“After three years away, we’re finally coming back to tour the UK and Europe. We’re looking forward to incredible crowds, massive energy and more unforgettable nights. See you all soon!”
The tour will begin in the United Kingdom in mid-August before continuing through Germany, France, Italy, and additional European markets. Arena shows and historic outdoor venues are both featured on the itinerary.

In addition to the core lineup, Hollywood Vampires’ touring band includes longtime Alice Cooper collaborators Glen Sobel on drums and Chris Wyse on bass. The group last toured North America in 2019, completing a seven-date run that included a sold-out performance at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles and earned recognition for standout live performances in the UK.
The band’s second studio album, Rise, released in 2019, marked a creative shift toward original material, while still honoring the project’s founding spirit. Produced by Tommy Henriksen alongside the band, the album blended new compositions with select covers of songs originally written by influential rock musicians who died at a young age.
