WACK alt-idol group GANG PARADE will play their first ever shows outside Japan this August with their three-date GANG PARADE in the UK Tour for shows in Manchester, Bristol and London ahead of their planned 2026 disbandment.
The tour, put together with WACK’s European partner JPU Records, follows two appearances at the label’s WACK in the UK showcase series at The Underworld in Camden, which has run six times since November 2023.
Later this year, the 11-piece will close out a 12-year career that began as duo pla2me in 2014, weathered a 2020 split into sister groups GO TO THE BEDS and PARADISES, reunited under the GANG PARADE name in 2022, and saw their second major album ‘OUR PARADE’ hit number one on the Oricon weekly chart in 2023.
The UK tour sits alongside their ongoing GANG PARADE SO LONG TOUR across Japan and the release of farewell compilation ‘GANG FINALE’ on June 17th, a 33-track, three-disc set drawn from across the group’s 171-song catalogue with lead tracks, member-curated picks and fan-voted favourites.
Each date includes a VIP lunch and cheki session in the afternoon, priority entry, and a post-show cheki session after the live set. General ticket holders can buy cheki tickets separately on the day.
A further GANG PARADE event is scheduled in London on August 22nd, with details to follow.
