Tour 2027

The Smashing Pumpkins: Where the Story Goes Next

It has been an active stretch for the Smashing Pumpkins. After years of comeback tours, lineup shifts, and side projects, the band is currently in the middle of one of the most fully realized chapters of its career: a 27-city North American arena run anchored to the 30th anniversary of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. The 2026 tour, named the Rats In A Cage Tour, runs from September 30 in Columbus, Ohio, through November 12 at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, with two distinct sets each night and no opening act. The full date list with venues sits in the listings above.

The format itself is worth understanding before talking about whats next. Set one of each show is built around Mellon Collie material -- a focused, theatrical performance featuring "Tonight, Tonight," "1979," "Bullet with Butterfly Wings," "Zero," and the deeper cuts from the 1995 double album. Set two opens up the rest of the catalog with a rotating mix from Siamese Dream, Gish, Adore, Machina, and the more recent records. That structure has been working extraordinarily well, and fans have been turning up to multiple shows just to catch the different second-set selections.

The lineup for the 2026 run includes founding members Billy Corgan, James Iha, and Jimmy Chamberlin, plus newer guitarist Kiki Wong, who joined the band in 2024. Wong has been a quiet star of the touring lineup -- a technically gifted player with the stage presence to match the bands sprawling catalog. With that band locked in and the Mellon Collie format proving its appeal, the question for 2027 becomes which direction the Pumpkins point next.

A few possibilities are worth tracking. First, the band has historically followed major North American tours with international legs -- European arenas, festival headlines, occasional runs through Australia and Asia. With the Mellon Collie celebration generating press worldwide, a 2027 international leg would be a natural continuation. Second, the band has hinted at additional themed shows tied to other anniversary milestones. Siamese Dream, Adore, and Machina all have anniversary moments arriving over the next few years, and any of those could become the spine of a follow-up run.

Third, there is the new-music angle. Billy Corgan has not slowed down on the studio side, and the band has continued releasing fresh material between the legacy celebrations. A 2027 album cycle with its own tour is not off the table, especially given how active the band has been creatively in recent years. The official Smashing Pumpkins website remains the best place to track announcements as they drop.
