The Sex Pistols featuring Frank Carter have officially announced rescheduled North American tour dates for fall 2026, putting months of fan speculation to rest after the original run was scrapped before a single show was played.
"Hear ye hear ye hear ye, here is some fantastic news! We're back," the band wrote on FacebookMonday, March 2. "Hittin the stage again with our rescheduled North American tour dates this Fall 2026."
The tour was originally set to launch last fall, but guitarist Steve Jones sustained a broken wrist in September 2025 that forced the cancellation of all remaining North and South American dates. Jones, now fully recovered, addressed the comeback in his own way. "Mr. Jones here with an update on my wrist," he said in a statement. "I think it's good enough to do the upcoming tour. Now if I can just stop my legs from buckling up, I think I'll be in good shape."

This version of the Pistols features original members Jones, bassist Glen Matlock, and drummer Paul Cook alongside vocalist Frank Carter, who joined the lineup in 2024 after Matlock's son suggested him for a set of charity shows at London's Bush Hall. Carter, formerly of Gallows and Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, has since earned widespread praise for the raw energy he brings to the stage. At a 2025 show at London's Royal Albert Hall for the Teenage Cancer Trust, he reportedly got the entire crowd into a “giant circle pit,” according to Blabbermouth. A sold-out 100 Club gig drew Noel Gallagher, Paul Weller, and Bobby Gillespie.

Not everyone’s a fan, though. Original frontman John Lydon, who’s been estranged from his former bandmates for years, has publicly called the Carter-led shows “karaoke.” In a February interview with The i Paper, he said learning about the reunion without him “pissed me off,” adding that the remaining members were “trying to trivialize the whole show.” Carter, for his part, has taken the high road, telling NME he plans to “leave every single ounce of me on that stage because that’s what the record deserves.”
According to the tour announcement, each stop will feature a full performance of the band’s 1977 album Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols from start to finish, plus additional songs from the catalog. The run is part of a broader celebration marking 50 years since the band's formation. Confirmed cities include Dallas, Austin, Houston, Nashville, Kansas City, Toronto, Montreal, Philadelphia, Boston, Washington D.C., Cleveland, Detroit, Columbus, Minneapolis, Denver, Salt Lake City, Seattle, San Francisco, San Diego, Phoenix, and Los Angeles.
