Ahead of the 35th anniversary of their classic album ‘Pills ‘n’ Thrills And Bellyaches’, the Happy Mondays have confirmed a 22-date tour for March and April 2026.

Happy Mondays frontman Shaun Ryder, Bez (freaky dancing and percussion), Mark Day (guitar), Gary Whelan (drums), Dan Broad (MD/guitar/keys) and Firouzeh Berry (backing vocals) will perform the album’s highlights, including the massive hit singles, ‘Step On’, ‘Kinky Afro’ and ‘Loose Fit’, in addition to other hits and fan favourites, such as ‘24 Hour Party People’, ‘Hallelujah’, ‘Judge Fudge’ and ‘W.F.L.’.

The tour begins in Newcastle on 13th March and ends in Belfast on 24th April, and includes dates along the way at The Roundhouse in London (27th March) and a hometown show at Manchester’s O2 Victoria Warehouse (11th April).

Joining the tour as very special guests are The Farm and Northside, who were both on the bill for the Happy Mondays’ legendary 1991 concert at Elland Road in Leeds.

A venue pre-sale will take place from 10.00am on Wednesday 17th September, before going on general sale at 10.00am on Friday 19th September, available at www.alttickets.com and www.happymomdaysofficial.co.uk
