Joan Jett's UK Tour: Punk Rock Fire Returns

0:00On April 21st, Joan Jett and the Black Hearts are hitting the UK with their first headline tour in 16 years this summer, 2026. They're playing five major spots in July, bringing that punk rock fire fans have missed since 2010. Kicking off July 2nd at Glasgow's O2 Academy, then Manchester on the 4th, leads on the 5th, Wolverhampton on the 7th, and wrapping in. London at the new British Airways, ARC on the 8th. The refs are opening up, and tickets drop Friday, April 24th at 10am. Fans are buzzing hard about this return, especially since Jett cut her debut solo album Bad Reputation right there in London back in the day. It's got that full circle vibe, pulling in old heads, and new listeners ready to chant along. On top of the tour, she's opening for my chemical romance at Wimbley Stadium on July 10th. She stayed busy too, joining a benefit gig last year for Los Angeles wildfire victims with Nirvana surviving members, and hopping on Billie Eidels.
