Toto Extend Live Activity With Summer 2025 Dates
23.06.2026 - 04:21:39 | ad-hoc-news.de
Toto remain a steady draw on the international touring circuit. The rock group are set to continue their Dogz of Oz touring run into summer 2025, with shows including a July 7, 2025 date at the Circo Massimo in Rome alongside Deep Purple, according to the listing on Songkick.
New summer 2025 concerts
The current touring schedule has Toto concentrating on Europe in mid-2025, with appearances such as the Rome concert at Circo Massimo billed with Deep Purple as part of a large-scale outdoor event. Event details on Songkick list the date as July 7, 2025.
Alongside that Italian date, the group’s routing on live-listing platforms shows additional European summer commitments, underscoring that Toto continue to work primarily as a touring act more than four decades after their breakthrough. Bandsintown also highlights their 2025 activity.
Where U.S. fans stand
At present, the publicly listed itinerary centers on Europe and does not include newly announced U.S. dates in 2025. American fans who saw the band on previous U.S. legs of the Dogz of Oz tour will have to watch for further additions to the schedule.
Toto’s long-standing popularity in the States is built on classic rock radio staples and past arena tours, so another American leg would logically fit the band’s profile, even though no such shows are formally posted for 2025 yet.
