The leaks have been coming thick and fast this week regarding a Nine Inch Nails world tour. Looking to get ahead of things, the industrial metal act have confirmed they will be touring next year but are delaying the official reveal due to the raging fires devastating the greater Los Angeles area.
“Since some dates and information about our world tour have leaked we are confirming that yes we will be touring and will provide more details soon,” the band wrote on social media (January 13).
“We are all watching the devastation that is unfolding in California and have paused our announcement while people try to deal with all that is happening.”
Rumours first began appearing on a Nine Inch Nails subreddit revealing American dates for shows in Brooklyn, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Tampa and Cleveland, along with concerts in the UK and Canada. Sadly there’s no mention of Australia just yet, but fingers crossed.
When the tour is officially announced it will be Nine Inch Nails’ first world tour since 2022.
