2010s Rock Supergroup Announces 2026 Tour Update in Unexpected Way

Hollywood Vampires, the chart-topping supergroup, delivered an interesting way of updating fans with exciting news ahead of their tour.

With superfans thrilled to see the four-piece band composed of Alice Cooper, also known as the "Godfather of Shock Rock," award-winning actor Johnny Depp, Aerosmith's Joe Perry and Crossbone Skully's Tommy Henriksen reunite on stage, they fueled the anticipation by bringing out Depp's iconic character.

In the latest video shared on Instagram, Hollywood Vampires featured Captain Jack Sparrow, but instead of the A-lister, acclaimed cosplayer Dan Kneale appeared to unveil the unexpected announcement.

"Im just here to remind you that the Hollywood Vampires are touring this summer in the U.K. and Europe. Have you got your tickets yet?" he asked in the video and mentioned the release of the special tickets.

"A message from @captaindansparrow. Tickets and VIP Packages are ON SALE NOW at HollywoodVampires.com," the caption reads.

The upcoming tour will be the band's first in three years following its hiatus. The last time they hit the road for multiple shows was in the summer of 2023.

The tour will kick off in London on Aug. 12 and conclude in Prague on Sept. 6.

In addition, Hollywood Vampires have invited a pair of acclaimed acts to join them on stage. Their special guests for the U.K. leg of the tour include The Jesus and Mary Chain and The Damned.

Besides their return on a full-scale tour, the supergroup is also set to release a documentary highlighting how the band was formed and evolved into one of rock's most celebrated groups today.

"Well, we're working on a documentary," Perry told Eddie Trunk of SiriusXM as cited by Blabbermouth. "It's got some great stuff on it. I just saw a rough cut. And it's pretty amazing."
