The shows promise an awe-inspiring, spandex-clad, rip-roaring stomp through some of the most iconic rock songs in history. Their largest headline tour in 20 years will see some of the biggest venues in the UK treated to an encyclopaedic set list of their greatest hits and fan favourites. The Darkness are set to perform full circle shows with songs spanning their eight studio albums, from the game-changing 2003 debut Permission To Land right through to their latest chartbusting, critically acclaimed Dreams On Toast, which soared to No.2 in the UK Official Albums Chart in 2025. Regarding the tour Justin Hawkins says, “The very bestest of The Darkness! Imagine yourself, luxuriating in the warm sonic and visual embrace of the best ever Darkness songs, played by the best ever Darkness band, in the best ever rock music venues of mainland Great Britain! You will float with us on the soft whoopee cushion of undulating rock tones, swim with us in the warm seas of loquacious balladry, jump with us in the heady miasma of pop rock, and also do the head bang with us in the electrical thundery storm of HEVY METUL… Roll up, roll up – the Darkness Carnival is coming to town!” The Darkness will be joined on all dates by support from the GRAMMY-winning, multi-platinum selling, American country rock band Brothers Osborne, as well as the multi-million streamed UK rock band A. The Best Of The Darkness UK tour will call at seven arenas across the country starting December 8th in Glasgow and finishing with the band’s debut headline performance at The O2 in London on December 16th.
