Prepare to discover heretofore unknown dimensions of Queens Of The Stone Age this fall on The Catacombs Tour – a limited series of very special one-night-only evenings at a curated selection of North America’s most historic theaters.

The conception of The Catacombs Tour was inspired in large part by the band members’ collective experience during the creation of their Alive In The Catacombs cinematic and musical opus. Comprised of all-new arrangements crafted specifically for the occasion, The Catacombs Tour will see QOTSA draw upon the spirit of those sublime subterranean renditions and infuse it into reimagined versions that promise to twist the volume knob in both directions. Enhanced by assembled ensembles, the end result will be a precious few unique and intimate performances unlike any previous QOTSA tour.

Tickets for Queens Of The Stone Age The Catacombs Tour will be on sale at qotsa.com beginning June 27 at 10 AM, local time. Appropriate dress is encouraged – you’ll want to look as good as the music is going to sound on this very special evening at the theater.

The Catacombs Tour, UK and Europe dates will be announced shortly. See below for a full list of North American shows.

Earlier this month, Queens Of The Stone Age released Alive In The Catacombs. Order the film qotsa.com, and watch a video trailer below.

Filmed and recorded in July 2024, Queens Of The Stone Age: Alive In The Catacombs captures QOTSA as you’ve never seen or heard them before. This utterly unique once in a lifetime experience features a carefully selected setlist spanning the QOTSA catalog, each song chosen and epically reimagined for the Catacombs.

The result is an unprecedented incarnation of QOTSA at their most intimate, yet surrounded by literally millions of human remains – “the biggest audience we’ve ever played for,” says Joshua Homme.

Every aesthetic decision, every choice of song, every configuration of instruments… absolutely everything was planned and played with deference to the Catacombs – from the acoustics and ambient sounds – dripping water, echoes and natural resonance – to the darkly atmospheric lighting tones that enhance the music.
