Stone Temple Pilots, live dates and festival shows on the horizon
22.06.2026 - 04:00:36 | ad-hoc-news.de
Stone Temple Pilots remain a reliable live draw more than three decades after breaking out of the 1990s rock wave. The band continues to book shows into 2026, including U.S. casino dates and festival slots that keep their catalog in front of new and longtime fans.
Upcoming U.S. casino and theater shows
Stone Temple Pilots have focused much of their recent U.S. activity on casinos, theaters and special events rather than large arena runs, with listings on major ticket platforms showing recurring appearances at regional venues.
These formats suit their catalog-heavy sets, giving American audiences chances to hear songs from albums like Core and Purple in more intimate surroundings where sound and sightlines are typically stronger than at festival main stages.
Festival appearances and international dates
The group also remains a fixture on rock and alternative festival bills internationally, often slotted alongside peers from the grunge and post-grunge era.
Outside the U.S., Stone Temple Pilots tend to concentrate dates in Europe and Latin America when they travel, building weekends around festival appearances and filling gaps with standalone club and theater shows that mirror their American routing approach.
