A Perfect Circle & Puscifer Team Up for 2026 World Tour
Maynard James Keenan is doubling down in 2026, and fans around the world are about to get hit with both barrels. A Perfect Circle and Puscifer have announced a massive joint world tour kicking off in June, hitting Europe, the UK, Mexico, South America, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and Hawaii before wrapping in Honolulu on December 19 *. Billy Howerdel pointed out that A Perfect Circle hasn't played some of these markets in over two decades, making this tour a long-overdue return for diehards who've been waiting since the early 2000s *. Japan and Hawaii are fresh additions to what's being called the Pacific Ring of Fire tour, expanding the reach beyond the usual circuit *.
The European leg launches June 3 at London's O2 Academy Brixton, with support coming from Jehnny Beth, Reclus.É, and A.A. Williams across various dates *. For Puscifer's Carina Round, who shares vocal duties with Keenan, the UK dates carry extra weight—this will be her first performance in England since her mother passed away *. Most tickets drop May 22 at 10:00am local time, though Japanese show tickets won't go on sale until June 13 *. And if that wasn't enough Maynard for one year, Puscifer is tacking on a separate European and UK headlining run starting in October, this time with comedian Dave Hill as the opener instead of a traditional support band—a move that worked well when Hill opened on their recent North American tour for *Normal Isn't* *.
The tour announcement came with a new episode of Tales From The Pusciverse Prodcast, because apparently Keenan's universe requires its own podcast to keep track of all the moving parts *. Whether you're an A Perfect Circle purist or a Puscifer devotee, this is shaping up to be the most comprehensive Maynard world takeover we've seen in years.
