It’s impressive to do one arena tour. It’s more impressive to do two. It’s even more impressive to be relevant enough nearly 40 years after forming to still be selling them out.
Nine Inch Nails have been big players in the worlds of industrial, rock and experimental music since the late ’80s, which is no mean feat. In the three and a half decades since, Trent Reznor has toured the UK many, many times, and chances are that if your dad hasn’t seen them, your best mate’s dad has.
NIN last came across the Pond three years ago to play five nights scattered across the country, and now they’re back for more. There’s no new album to celebrate, because there doesn’t need to be. These shows are bigger and, we’re sure, even better than before.
It’s time to get ready, NIN fans – tickets go on sale this week. Here’s everything you need to know to make sure you can see Nine Inch Nails on their 2025 ‘Peel it Back’ tour in the UK.
When are Nine Inch Nails going on their UK tour?
Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross will land in Britain this June, so you don’t have very long to wait. They’re set to play two nights, one in London and one in Manchester, before hopping over to our neighbours in Dublin and then continuing across the continent until August.
June is also the beginning of festival season in Europe, so keep your eyes peeled for potential further opportunities to see the boys at a festival or two this summer.
Full list of UK tour dates
Here is the full list of UK tour dates for Nine Inch Nails’ 2025 UK tour:
- Tue June 17 - Manchester – Co-op Live
- Wed June 18 - London – The O2
When do tickets go on sale?
Tickets for all dates – yep, across the entire world – will go live at 12pm local time this Wednesday January 29. If you’re buying for the UK, you’ll need to be online at midday exactly, but if you’re trying for anywhere else make sure to double check the time difference and factor that in. For example, much of Europe is an hour ahead of us in the UK, meaning their tickets will be released at 11am GMT.
You’ll be able to buy tickets to the Manchester or London dates from Live Nation here, but head to Ticketmaster here if you’re nearer Dublin. For any other locations, you can find out exactly how to purchase entry on Nine Inch Nails’ website here.
Presale details
A presale for the band’s Manchester show at Co-op Live kicked off on Monday morning at 12pm. This will last until January 29 at 11am.
How much do tickets cost?
It’s currently unknown exactly how much you’ll have to pay to see Trent and the guys, but back in 2022 tickets were going for between £60-£110, so that’s likely the sort of range you can expect to see on Wednesday.
In Europe, standing tickets cost €80-95 (£67-80), and seated tickets were €70-90 (£59-76).
