U2 is heading back to stadiums, and the Irish rock legends are bringing along a familiar face who can do a bit of everything.
Beck, the genre-hopping singer behind “Loser,” will open all six announced shows on U2’s The Greatest Show on Earth World Tour, which kicks off Feb. 23, 2027, in Mexico City. It’s a reunion for the two acts. Beck previously supported U2 on its 2017 Joshua Tree stadium tour.
The timing couldn’t be better for Beck. In September, he released Ride Lonesome, his 15th studio album and his first collection of new songs since 2019’s Hyperspace. This record leans into the quieter, folkier side of his catalog, reuniting him with the musicians from beloved albums like Sea Change and Morning Phase, along with longtime mixer Nigel Godrich. Beck said that returning to that sound also helped the group find new sounds and emotional textures.
He’s currently on a North American tour behind the album, with stops including Brooklyn Oct. 22 and 23 before wrapping in Nashville on Halloween. Then he’ll trade theaters for stadiums.
Beck will join U2 for two nights each at Mexico City’s Estadio GNP Seguros, São Paulo’s Estádio MorumBIS and Buenos Aires’ Estadio River Plate. U2.com presales begin Oct. 19, and Europe and North America dates are coming in the next few weeks. U2 is also planning a homecoming show in Ireland.
The tour supports Carnaval De Luz, U2’s 16th studio album, due Nov. 13. This will be the band’s first stadium shows since 2019. It also carries extra meaning for drummer Larry Mullen Jr., who sat out the band’s Las Vegas Sphere residency because of a long-standing neck problem. In a recent Rolling Stone cover story, he said many people urged him to retire. His family opposed a risky surgery that carried a small chance of paralysis, but the drummer went ahead after a Dublin neurosurgeon agreed to operate, calling him “a national treasure.”
The surgery worked, and Mullen has since relearned to play in a simpler style. He isn’t sure how long he’ll last each night onstage, but he told the magazine that even an hour would be enough for him.
With all four original members back together and a star opening act, U2’s return to stadiums is shaping up to be a celebration of second chances for the band and fans alike. Together, they live up to the tour’s name.
