The Cult is bringing its tour to Las Vegas

14 June 2023

(PRESS RELEASE) -- The Cult have announced a slate of western U.S. tour dates for this fall, with the iconic rock band trekking across the region following their Aftershock Festival performance. The tour will stop in Las Vegas for two nights at the Pearl Concert Theater at Palms Casino Resort on Friday and Saturday, 27-28 October at 8 p.m. Cold Cave will open for both shows.

“We are thrilled to announce these shows,” said Ian Astbury. “As we close the circle from ’83 to ’23, we are entering into this moment to celebrate with you all, what has been, and shall continue to be, The Cult’s continuing legacy.”

Tickets starting at $49.95 (not including applicable service charges or fees) go on sale Friday, 16 June at 10 a.m. PT at ticketmaster.com.

Club Serrano members and Live Nation and Pearl Concert Theater customers will receive access to a presale running Thursday, 15 June from 10 a.m. PT to 10 p.m. PT.

The Cult formed in 1983 England, initially dubbed Death Cult, the seminal post-punk band have sold in excess of four million albums with numerous international and U.S. gold and platinum certifications. Ian Astbury (vocals) and Billy Duffy (guitar) have released 11 studio albums over The Cult’s 40-year career. The U.K. band, dubbed “Shamanic goths” by Classic Rock Magazine, found international renown with the 1985 album, Love, which featured the enduring rock anthem “She Sells Sanctuary,” as well as the oft-heard follow-up single “Rain.” Electric arrived in 1989, with Rolling Stone saying the collection of songs (particularly “Love Removal Machine,” “Wild Flower” and “Lil’ Devil”) “swaggers, crunches and howls.”

Most recently, The Cult released Under the Midnight Sun. Mojo, in a review of the eight-song album, said “rock’s unquenchable melodramatists have the fire in their eyes still.”
