Few bands in rock history have carved out a legacy as powerful and enduring as Deep Purple. With more than five decades of chart-topping albums, sold-out tours, and induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, they remain one of the most influential and prestigious bands in the world. Their unparalleled catalogue — from “Smoke on the Water” to “Highway Star” — continues to inspire generations of musicians, while their live performances reaffirm their status as pioneers of hard rock.
Deep Purple’s music continues to reach new generations and inspire fans around the world. Their 1970 classic “Child in Time” was reworked to soundtrack the trailer for the latest season of blockbuster series Stranger Things, introducing one of rock’s most powerful songs to millions of new listeners and reigniting global admiration in the band’s timeless sound. The moment perfectly captures Deep Purple’s lasting influence and their ability to remain relevant in today’s culture. Together with the success of their critically acclaimed 2024 album =1, these fabled hard rock heroes show no sign of slowing down, continuing to push the boundaries of the genre for audiences around the globe.
Riding the wave of their latest music and ongoing cultural presence, Deep Purple will kick off their UK tour on 18 November 2026 at Newcastle’s Utilita Arena, followed by Glasgow’s OVO Hydro (19 November), Birmingham’s BP Pulse Live Arena (21 November), Manchester’s AO Arena (22 November), before finishing in London on 24 November at Eventim Apollo.
Joining Deep Purple on tour is special guests Mammoth (excluding London’s Eventim Apollo show), spearheaded by GRAMMY Award-nominated songwriter, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Wolfgang Van Halen – as well as fast-rising UK rockers Jayler, completing a powerhouse bill that celebrates both the legacy and future of rock.
