The Cult Preview 40th Anniversary US Tour with West Coast Dates — Plus Announce Canada 8424 Tour

The Cult has announced new dates for its 40th Anniversary celebration, including the “Canada 8424 Tour” and West Coast dates in the U.S. The latter is being billed as a preview of the band’s soon-to-be-announced 2025 US tour.

The Cult occupies a unique position in music history, credited to their audacious fusion of post-punk, hard rock, and experimental elements. They fearlessly transcended conventional boundaries, leaving an indelible mark on a wide spectrum of genres. From Billy Duffy’s formative years in the Manchester underground music scene to Ian Astbury’s revolutionary Gathering of the Tribes, this duo has undeniably shaped the landscape of modern music.

Formed in 1984 in England, The Cult has sold millions of albums and earned international and U.S. gold and platinum certifications. Ian Astbury (vocals) and Billy Duffy (guitar) have released 11 studio albums, earning the nickname “Shamanic Goths.”

Their latest release, Under the Midnight Sun, proves they’ve still got the fire. In late 2023, Astbury and Duffy even brought back Death Cult for some live gigs, including a U.S. show at The Theatre at The Ace Hotel and sold-out U.K. dates at the Brixton Electric. As if that wasn’t enough, they’ve been rolling out vinyl reissues of their acclaimed albums in early 2024. The Cult’s flame shows no sign of dimming.

The Cult will be making stops in Canada, starting in Montreal on September 4, followed by Toronto, Windsor, Thunder Bay, Winnipeg, Regina, Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, and Victoria. The West Coast leg of the U.S. tour will include stops in Salem, Auburn, Redding, Paso Robles, Lincoln, Highland, and Valley Center.

Tickets for the U.S. and Canadian dates go on sale this Friday at 10 a.m. local time. Ticket links and VIP information can be found here.
