Roger Taylor has announced his Violence Insane In A Beautiful World tour for 2026.

The legendary Queen drummer will set out on dates in autumn in support of his seventh studio album of the same name in what will be his only UK shows of this year.

The string of dates include stops in Newcastle, Manchester, Birmingham and a hometown show at London's iconic Roundhouse in Camden.

Ahead of the accompanying tour, Taylor jokes: “I mean, do people want to see me live? I would hope some would.

“I thought I'd put a toe in the water, and so we're going to do this handful of dates in some special venues. You know, I don't want to play clubs. I certainly won't be playing arenas.”
