Today Franz Ferdinand announced Dublin and Belfast dates for February 2026.
Having released their much-acclaimed seventh album, The Human Fear, on Domino in January of this year, the past few months have seen the band out on the road globally, playing sold-out headline shows in North and South America and a two night sell out at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London amongst others.
The tour sees the band make a return to the Brixton Academy, before which this summer saw them play extensively across the festivals of Europe before heading to Australia and Japan at the end of the year.
