There are moments in rock history that feel less like announcements and more like thunderclaps. The confirmation that Foo Fighters and Queens of the Stone Age are uniting for a massive 2026 world tour is one of those moments — a seismic collaboration between two of the most .
The tour, aptly named “The Brotherhood Tour 2026,” will storm across North America, Europe, South America, and beyond, bringing together decades of legendary anthems and pure rock intensity. For fans, it’s a dream that fuses Foo Fighters’ heart-on-fire energy with Queens of the Stone Age’s hypnotic desert groove — an alchemy few thought possible on one stage.
Both bands share deep roots and intertwined histories. Dave Grohl once sat behind the drums for Queens’ landmark album Songs for the Deaf, and Josh Homme has long been a brother-in-arms in Grohl’s creative orbit. Their reunion on stage in 2026 feels like the universe aligning once more — not for nostalgia, but for reinvention.
Foo Fighters, fresh from the success of their 2025 release Echoes Within the Static, are entering this tour with a renewed sense of purpose. After years of loss, growth, and rediscovery, Grohl and company are ready to roar louder than ever — playing everything from “Everlong” and “The Pretender” to the raw new anthems that remind fans why they’re the heartbeat of live rock.
Queens of the Stone Age, meanwhile, are in full command of their dark, magnetic energy. Their 2023 record In Times New Roman… proved that Josh Homme still crafts riffs that grind, seduce, and hypnotize in equal measure. Their setlist promises a descent into the desert — featuring staples like “No One Knows,” “Go With the Flow,” and “Little Sister,” alongside newer, heavier cuts.
The chemistry between both bands is undeniable. Expect moments when Grohl jumps behind the kit for Queens, or Homme lends his shadowy vocals to a Foo Fighters number — the kind of crossovers that only happen when two legacies share not just a stage, but a history.
Visually, the production is set to be a spectacle of contrast — Foo Fighters’ explosive light shows meeting Queens’ surreal desert-psychedelic aesthetics. Think burning red hues, spiraling geometry, and black-and-gold desert visuals enveloping both bands in cinematic fury.
Beyond the lights and amps, there’s something deeply human about this tour. Both bands have walked through fire — personal battles, loss, and reinvention — yet their music remains unbroken. The Brotherhood Tour is less about spectacle and more about spirit; a reminder that rock, at its best, is built on connection and resilience.
Fans across the globe have already dubbed it “the must-see tour of the decade,” with presale tickets crashing servers within minutes of going live. Stadiums from Los Angeles to London are already gearing up for what promises to be nights of pure electricity.
For younger audiences, this tour will be a masterclass in live musicianship — no auto-tune, no tricks, just two bands reminding the world that raw instruments and real passion still rule the stage. For lifelong fans, it’s a reunion of brothers — a closing of the circle that began decades ago in desert studios and dark tour buses.
When Foo Fighters and Queens of the Stone Age take the stage together in 2026, it won’t just be another concert — it’ll be a collision of legacies, a celebration of friendship, and a defiant roar that says rock isn’t going anywhere. It’s evolving, breathing, and louder than ever.
And as the amps hum and the crowd screams, you’ll know you’re witnessing something bigger than music — you’re witnessing history in distortion.
