Five places still selling Garbage tickets ahead of massive tour

Next summer, American alternative rock band Garbage is teaming up with Skunk Anansie to tour the UK, and tickets are available now via the likes of Seat Unique, Gigsberg, and Ticombo.

The co-headline tour, described as a ‘meeting of minds’ by the latter, will hit six different UK cities in June and July 2026, including Northwich, Scarborough, and Edinburgh.

“Got the tickets! Even though I live nearby, I have never seen a gig in the castle esplanade, so I'm really looking forward to it!,” recently typed one fan via Reddit.

A second, who was also lucky in the sale, reported: “Yay! Got mine too! I've been soaked up there many times, even in July. If it's hammering down, IOHWIR will be perfection.”

Announcing the tour last month, Garbage said they were ‘totally stoked’ to be going on the road with the ‘phenomenal force that is Skunk Anansie’.

“We’re super excited to grace the stage with our friends and fellow legends Garbage,” the four-piece, fronted by Skin, added. “This tour is not only a meeting of minds and of music but a chance for us to sit back and be fan kids of one of our favourite bands.”

General sale has already been and gone, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still pick up a ticket for the 2026 gigs.
